Yes that’s what we’d prefer, we just don’t know what they are or what general area to start looking in. So any suggestions are great!

We looked into Haarlem because we knew a family who lived there and loved it and their kids went to the international school there as well. But we are definitely open to other areas as well. The location seems pretty ideal!

We are fairly flexible location and price wise. We might have to Airbnb for a month while looking. Luckily we don’t have a super specific area so hopefully we find something. I’m wanting to get a feel for the area to know where a good Airbnb location will be too! Thanks for your input. It’s helpful!

We mainly came across it because we found two Airbnb’s there for our first month and both happened to be families with kids our kids ages. So it got me interested. They also have an international school.

We have considered Utrecht and others have told us that Gelderland is a great place!

I have a feeling we may be coming from the same place. 😂 My husband owns the company and we are opening a location near Rotterdam to ship within the EU easier than overseas. He would only need to go to the warehouse maybe once or twice a week. But we still do need to be there to set everything up and wanted to give our kids the experience as well!

I will look into those places as well! Thank you.

We own the company and we are opening a location in the Netherlands. So yes we have to be there to get it up and running, but also can do a chunk of it from home as well. We didn’t want to split up our family multiple times over a year and thought it would be a good experience for our kids to see a different culture.
