Re: Moved to holland. HELP!!!
You would be exceptionally luck to get cash in hand work at an expats pub. There aren't that many of them, they all get a dozen people asking every week, and the Dutch bars (or other recreational establishments) almost never take on people who don't speak Dutch when there is a huge local talent pool of bilingual students from the local University to select from.
I would strongly advise that if you come here, you avoid any cities. Try the campsites around Zeeland, perhaps, or apply to one of the big camping companies (like eurocamp for example) for courier (cleaning/serving/customer service) work, who provide you with return travel, shared accommodation and a job from around now until the end of September 'somewhere' in Europe.

Hi there - just wondered if you were still in Valkenswaard, as my Dutchie and I have just bought a house there. Would be nice to meet up if you are still in the area !
