    Amsterdam: rent for a 1 bedroom, ~2000-2100 euro incl. utilities. Need to make at least 3x-4x that with a permanent contract (minimum: ~€5500). To an average apartment, there are 100-150 responses within 1 day. Housing shortage: 45.000. In the whole of the Netherlands, there’s a housing shortage of 390.000. Maybe you can find a room if you try extremely hard. Btw, Amsterdam is one of the most expensive cities of Europe. Some other cities in the Netherlands are less expensive but not much, but they’re far less international.

    You’re most likely not eligible to work. You won’t get hired for any jobs besides some paying under the table, which is probably €10-15/h at most. Moreover, you can only stay in the Schengen area for 90 days.

    You won’t be able to do all of what you want in any major city in Europe, if any. Definitely not in the Netherlands. Good luck!
