moving from dublin to amsterdam the housing is a nightmare in general. But once you get the ring of it, you will be okay. There is more freelance opportunities but you need dutch working with the tax system.

It a relaxed transient culture in amsterdam and it takes time to break into circles.

And in general the weather is better than ireland.

Very true: "but you need dutch working with the tax system." Hell, even I have help with the tax-system. A small tip regarding housing: Visit the neighbourhood of choice after/around eight o'clock to get a feel of the streets.
