Today, tomorrow, and Beyond
Getting to and living in Amsterdam, currently the 25th most expensive city in the world, will take more than wishful thinking:
ResidencY Permit: $358 - Airfare: $462 One Way Before Tax (Subject to Increase) - Temporary Lodging PER NIGHT: $90 - $140
Cost of Living Per Month for one person: Approx. $3200
Rental: $1400 - $2500 a Month - Food & Supplies: $390 - $530
Monthly Pass for Local Transportation: $91 - Taxi: $4.32 Per Mile
Basic Utilities: $281 - Internet: $50 - Gym Membership: $64.50
Note: This breakdown does not include all expected costs, this is just an anticipated average for the basics for me alone; and does not cover ministry costs or expansion. There is also a housing shortage in Amsterdam creating high cost and high demand. Though I’ll make every effort to secure a rental in advance (with sponsorship support), it may be weeks before I can transition from temporary lodging into something permanent.
