Re:Why (or why not) to move your company to Amsterdam on Friday March 08, 2013 @09:55AM (#5343724)

moving from dublin to amsterdam the housing is a nightmare in general. But once you get the ring of it, you will be okay. There is more freelance opportunities but you need dutch working with the tax system.

It a relaxed transient culture in amsterdam and it takes time to break into circles.

And in general the weather is better than ireland.
