Hey, expat. Let’s make a new beginning worth it!
Make the Netherlands feel like home, wherever you’re from
Settle into the Netherlands with confidence!
Living in a new country brings challenges. From navigating taxes and local rules to adjusting to Dutch culture, it can feel overwhelming. That’s why we created the Introduction to the Netherlands course.
This interactive program gives you the essentials for living and working here, practical tips for daily life, and cultural insights to help you truly feel at home.
👉 Starting this autumn, we’ll host online courses via Teams. Prefer learning at your own pace? A digital, self-guided course will be available by late 2025.
And for those who can’t wait, we’re also launching fun leisure experiences in the Netherlands from late autumn!

How we started: our mission to help expats
The love between two people sparked and Reaching Expatations was born!
Overcoming obstacles is what we fight for, to reach expectations and improve the integration and quality of life of expats starting their new life in the Netherlands.
At Reaching Expatations, our mission is to empower expats to confidently navigate their new lives in the Netherlands.
Through practical support, cultural insights, and community-building, we strive to make the transition smoother and more enriching for newcomers, giving them the tools they need to thrive in their personal and professional lives.
A soft landing for expats, so you can move forward faster
When you bring international talent to the Netherlands, you want them to feel at home quickly, so they can focus on what they do best.
We offer a practical and engaging solution to help expats adapt faster — and more confidently — to life in the Netherlands. Our course ‘Introduction to the Netherlands’ tackles common challenges before they become real frustrations.
