Hi,

I want to live and work in Amsterdam for 2 months next year and just wondered if anyone could give me some advice. I have looked at a few appartments for short term rent online and they are all way out of my price range. I would like to room share with people if possible to make the rent cheaper... is this something that I would just have to find once I was in Amsterdam?

I would like a job in a bar, coffee shop, resteraunt for the duration just to have some income... do i need any special visa for this or am I covered as I live in the EU? Also are short term jobs like this quite easy to get?

If anyone could give me any kind of advice / help that would be great becuase so far I have nothig

Hi coolcouple,

Welcome on board to this site.
May I remind you that this thread is an old one.

If you have a room for rent I invite you to post a free add in the housing section.

For safety reasons do not give personal information on the public forum.

Thank you.
