Ask HN: From Amsterdam to New York?
I am a software engineer (backend and DevOps) living in Amsterdam and I've always wanted to experience living and working in New York at least for a while.
Should I do it? If yes, do you have any advice on how to make it happen?
Also, my wife is an American citizen.
- barrystaes 9y agoI (also live in Netherlands and) visited Manhattan once on holiday, wondered about that myself. My takeaway from what a friend living there said.. downtown NY is great but expensive. Eating outdoors is the norm. Groceries are expensive as well. Things add up, make sure your income does too. And its very noisy at night.
