SHOPPING GUIDE IN THE NETHERLANDS | Groceries, clothes, pharmacies, bookstores

When you move abroad, you have to start from the beginning again. That includes learning where you need to go to get the stuff you need. If you're new to the Netherlands/Amsterdam, then I hope my 'shopping guide' videos will make your transition easier. If you've been here a while, I hope you will still learn about some new places via my video!

    My Part 2 video is now published here! I list all the furniture, homeware, tools & hardware stores that I know of in Amsterdam, how to find a tradesperson, other useful online platforms, and who we used for our bathroom renovation! 😊Video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/nYyJj7aKXabJk9I.html

    Looking forward to that! Even though I'm Dutch and lived here all my life, I didn't know about the expat shop you mentioned.

    I would add that c&a is a great brand to look up for anyone on the curvier side. Their items are super durable and well priced.

    Wish I’d had this when I moved a year ago. Not knowing where to shop was my biggest culture shock. This is great, and I still learned new places. Thank you!

    I would say The Hague has an amazing market that is often way cheaper than the supermarket (de Haagse markt) for fresh produce and fish🍎❤

    Ahh great to know! Thanks for sharing 🥰 the quality of produce at markets is certainly better than the supermarket!

    Been living in Amsterdam for the past few months and as a fellow Aussie I'm actually missing chemist warehouse SO MUCH :( you can get *everything* there!! kruidvat/etos do not compare :')

    Omg yes! I totally agree… I also even miss Priceline (but CW is still better). It is also so annoying to not be able to pick up prescription medication at Etos/Kruidvat!
