Stories from emigrants
Dutch people who already made the move
Bram (32)
Eindhoven → Sydney
As a mechanical engineer, Australia had been on my list for years. Through the points-based system and a 189 visa I ended up in Sydney — the best career move I ever made.
Martijn & Sanne (38)
Amsterdam → Melbourne
With two children aged 5 and 8 we emigrated to Melbourne. The school system, the space and the outdoor life gave our kids a childhood we could only dream of in Amsterdam.
Fleur (26)
Utrecht → Brisbane
I went backpacking for a year and never came back. Through the Working Holiday Visa, farm work in Queensland and an employer who sponsored me, I built a new life in Brisbane.
