More and more of our clients are under the age of 30. Young professionals acknowledge the positive effects of international (work) experience. One experiences cultural differences by getting to live the “local life”. Work is often a reason to relocate, but other factors, such as personal experience, are as important. And what better way to get to know the new home country than by exploring the country’s cultural sights.
The Netherlands has a lot to offer when it comes to culture. Curious to visit the Rijksmuseum and watch Rembrandt’s Nightwatch? Or do you want to see more contemporary art at the Stedelijk Museum or Museum De Fundatie in Zwolle? Or are you more interested in opera, ballet? Do you perhaps like the cabaret of Boom Chicago?
