Which should I choose: London, Amsterdam, Berlin or Lisbon?
I'm in my late twenties and currently working, and I'm considering moving to London, Amsterdam, Berlin, or Lisbon. I'm really struggling to decide between them, and I wish I knew where I'd be happiest as an expat.
I only speak English and some Spanish, but I'm not sure whether that's enough since I don't speak Dutch, German or Portuguese. Do you think it would be difficult to live in Amsterdam, Berlin or Lisbon without knowing the local language?
Besides having a good job and a stable income, I think I'd be happiest if l could find friends to spend time with. I think that's what would have the biggest impact. But I don't know which of those cities l'd be most likely to find that in.
Based on my situation, where do you think I'd be happiest living? I'd love to hear from people who have lived in any of these cities or made a similar move.
