Whoah that's so cool! What's it like there? How big is the Jewish community?


Ehm almost not existent, there are sluchim of Chabad who sent their children in Amsterdam to school. No mikvah, no kosher shops or restaurants
We have a really old shul, it's beautiful and the parents of Karl Marx got married there.
The house of Marx mother is just around the corner from where I live.
WE have a minjan once in the two weeks, most people aren't shomer shabbos... I want to move to Amsterdam (but it's more expensive then London or Israel) my husband loves it here and he lived in London, Manchester, Miami, Boston,L.A and for a few months in New York... yet he loves Nijmegen the most.
We have sometimes tourists, and we have the 4 days march then we are getting full...

More or less, his parents became religious when he was a child, like 4 year old. They were traditional before. I grew up totally secular, secular with a big S.

Do you plan to move when you have children who need schools? Where would you like to go, and why?

ETA, of course, "I don't know yet" is a totally acceptable answer. Just curious.
