Summary from this website:
An international and multicultural labour market
To get a sense of what a global society looks like, just visit Luxembourg, one of the most cosmopolitan countries in the world. Almost 50% of Luxembourg’s population is made up of foreigners originating from more than 170 nationalities, and speaking no less than 80 languages.
Like its population, Luxembourg’s labour market is highly international and multilingual.
Around 70% of the country’s workforce is composed of foreigners. Luxembourg’s large multinational community with like-minded people makes singles and families feel welcome and enables them to make new friends quickly and easily. While the country has three officially recognised languages (Luxembourgish, French and German), English is widely spoken.
Numerous multinational companies have decided to install their worldwide or European headquarters in Luxembourg alongside local well-known companies. The University of Luxembourg ranks among the most international universities in the world.
A thriving economy attracting talents from all over the world
On top of being a vibrant financial centre and home to several European institutions, Luxembourg relies on highly skilled talents to fuel a data driven, circular and sustainable economy.
Key business sectors also include Space Technologies, Life Sciences, Automotive, Clean Technologies, Fintech and Logistics, all highly connected to and dependent on ongoing best-in-class ICT developments. Add to this a flourishing start-up community, a booming construction industry as well as a highly developed service sector and you start to understand why Luxembourg is such an attractive location for companies and employees alike.
Due to the size of the country, Luxembourg has a long tradition of attracting talents from abroad. Luxembourg is ranked second in the world for attraction of talents and is a world leader in highly skilled employment.
A stable and safe environment for working and living
The Luxembourg economy has been growing steadily, continuously outperforming the EU average with an employment increase of over 50% during the past 15 years. Luxembourg also enjoys one of the highest GDP per capita in the world.
Consistently ranking among the safest places in the world, Luxembourg has a strong social cohesion, a first-rate healthcare system, attractive social benefits and a favourable tax regime for highly skilled profiles. Moreover, nearly 90% of current jobs are covered by permanent contracts.
A great Work Life balance
Luxembourg is also a wonderful country for leisure and sporting activities. Scenic landscapes make hiking, cycling and enjoying the outdoors fun and a great way to unwind. Enjoy the vibrant nightlife, visit a concert at the “Philharmonie” with its internationally renowned performances. Not forgetting the various world famous bands who come and perform in concert. Luxembourg is also a great place to raise children. The country has a large network of international schools and day-care facilities. It is normal for children to learn 3 or more languages at school enabling them to develop in a truly international setting.
A short look at the most important statistics on the Luxembourg labour market.
The Luxembourg labour market is characterized by an international and multicultural working environment, an exceptional rate of foreign and multilingual labour force, a predominance of the tertiary sector and an unemployment rate below the European average.
Residence and work permits for EU citizens
All European Union (EU) citizens, as well as members of their family (in case they are also EU citizens) enjoy freedom of movement within the EU, which gives them the right to work, study and reside in any EU Member State, subject to certain conditions.
EU citizens wishing to stay for more than 90 days must declare their arrival and register at their local municipality. They must also complete a registration form in the same commune within three months of their arrival in Luxembourg.
Residence and work permits for third-country nationals
Every third-country national (i.e. a national from a country which is not an EU Member State or a country treated as such - Iceland, Norway, Liechtenstein and Switzerland) requires an authorisation to stay in the form of a residence and work permit.
A third-country national who wishes to come to Luxembourg to work for a period of more than 3 months, must follow a two-steps procedure:

2nd Critical Mass Luxembourg
On the 29th of April 2011 between 30 and 50 people joined by a very athletic dog as well took to the streets of Luxembourg city on their bikes.
It was a Critical Mass that gave people the feeling of safety while cycling through the busy streets of the city. People got to see, hear and imagine a city with less or no cars.
Find more information about it and join the next one on the facebook group Critical Mass Luxembourg.

Max Mertens installs swings in the sky over a busy Luxembourg street
Luxembourg artist Max Mertens has installed 450 swings above a shopping street to offer pedestrians a new experience of the place, whilst tapping into their imagination.
Mertens installed the swings in the sky, allowing the wind to cause the natural movement. Swings suggests an idea of play but it interprets this everyday object in a totally unfamiliar way.
He offers pedestrians something familiar, that recalls childhood but he places it out of reach.

LUXEMBOURG - Travel Guide | Around The World
The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (Luxembourgish: Groussherzogtum Lëtzebuerg, French:Grand-Duché de Luxembourg, German: Großherzogtum Luxemburg), is a landlocked country in the Benelux bordered by Belgium, France and Germany which lies at the crossroads of Germanic and Latin cultures. It is the only Grand Duchy in the world and is the second-smallest of the European Union member states.
With a successful steel, finance and high technology industry, a strategic location at the heart of Western Europe, more natural beauty than you might expect given its size, and as one of the three richest countries in the world, Luxembourg enjoys a very high standard of living - and has prices to match!
The city of Luxembourg proper was founded in 963, and its strategic position soon promised it a great fate. Luxembourg was at the crossroads of Western Europe and became heavily fortified, and you can still see the extensive city walls and towers which are the most distinctive aspect of the cityscape. Due to its key position, Luxembourg was raised up to a Duchy that included a much larger territory that stretched into present-day Belgium, Netherlands, Germany and France. The powerful Habsburg family kept its hands on it until late Renaissance times.
Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (IATA: LUX) is 6km outside Luxembourg-City. Easily accessible from the city centre via the cheap (€2 single or €4 for a day ticket valid on almost all buses and trains in the country
Luxembourg is a compact country and it's possible to reach almost any place in the country from the capital in under an hour. The central railway station has a handy Mobilitéit office that will help to plan your trip with bus and train.
You may not expect it from one of the smallest countries in Europe, but The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is a diverse land, full of beautiful nature and gorgeous historic monuments. Its turbulent history is filled with stories of emperors and counts as well as many battles and disputes. Today, the almost fairy-tale like castles and fortresses are a faint but impressive reminder of those days, and amidst their lovely natural setting, they make some superb and picturesque sights.
Most of the country's population lives in rural areas and apart from the delightful historic City of Luxembourg, the country's capital, settlements are mostly small. That said, the capital is a place not to be missed. It has a splendid location high on a cliff, overlooking the deep and narrow valleys of both the Alzette and Pétrusse rivers. Several parts of the old town are listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and the most interesting places include the Gothic Revival Cathedral of Notre Dame, the town fortifications and of course the Grand Ducal Palace, which is surrounded by charming cobblestoned lanes. However, there's far more to see, such as the Bock casemates, Neumünster Abbey and the Place d'Armes. There are several World War II memorial sites and a number of high-end museums, but just wandering through the old centre, taking in the beautiful views from the Chemin de la Corniche and crossing bridges to the nearest plateaus is at least as great a way to discover the city.
The lively town of Echternach is the oldest city in Luxembourg. It boasts the country's most prominent religious structure, the basilica of the Abbey of Echternach where the country's patron saint Willibrord is buried. The annual Whit Tuesday celebrations in his honour involve lots of dancers in the towns old centre and are a popular tourist attraction. The Apart from its own sights, Echternach makes a great base to explore the beautiful Müllerthal, better known as Little Switzerland. Hike or bike through its dense forests with myriad streams and even some caves.
The romantic village of Vianden with its stunning medieval Beaufort castle is a tourists' favourite, and well worth a visit even despite the crowds in summer. The beautiful location of the fortress in the Our river valley, surrounded by tight forests and a lake with swans, gives it a typical fairy-tale castle look and feel. If you're done wandering the streets and exploring the Gothic churches an fortified towers of this charming town, visit the Victor Hugo house. Afterwards, the pleasant cafés of the Grand Rue are a perfect place to kick back and enjoy.
Head to Remich to start your own trip down the Route du Vin and discover the many fine wines that are produced here, in the Moselle Valley.
The Luxembourg white wines from the Moselle valley to the east of Luxembourg include Riesling, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Rivaner and Elbling to name just a few and are good. In autumn, many villages along the Moselle river organise wine-tasting village festivals.

Where the Heck is Luxembourg?
I wanted to hit 40 countries by the end of this season of vlogging - I'd better get on top of it. Luxembourg it up! Help me make better videos at and then find me on the internet in all of the usual spots:
(me) (books)
Music by: Dyalla and Joakim Karud
My name is Jay Swanson - I'm an American writer living in Paris on an artist visa and hoping to make the city of light my home base - at least for the foreseeable future. I write science-fiction and fantasy, vlog daily, and love pizza a little too much.
FAQ:
How long have you lived in France? On and off for over two years.
What do you miss most about ho- NACHOS
You're always talking about living on some ship. WHAT SHIP? - I made a Draw My Life video that explains a lot here:
Where are you from originally? - Pullman, Washington - a small university/agricultural town near Idaho (and yes, the potatoes are amazing).
What do you film with? - I currently film almost exclusively with my Samsung Galaxy S8:
How do you get those shots where you're walking or running? - A Joby Gorillapod for smartphones, like this:
You drop your phone a lot, how does it survive? - THIS CASE IS AMAZING: (Galaxy S7) - (Galaxy S8) - (iPhone)
What do you edit with? - Adobe Premiere - it's pretty much all I've ever used since high school.
Aren't you ever freaked out by leaving your camera behind to film yourself? - Yep. But not too badly - I tend to be careful when I do.
Why are you living in #Paris? - Because I've always wanted to; I feel at home here:
But what are you doing there? - Living it up!
Do you speak French? Oui.
You talk a lot about the books you're working on, what are they about? - They're sci-fi (and fantasy) and I've got a decent pitch for you here:
Do you make money off YouTube? - Ha, no. I wish. It took me over 500 videos to make my first $100 off adsense. I think it will slowly change, but VERY slowly.
I really enjoy your videos, how can I support you? - The easiest and best way to support me is through Patreon, where you can pitch in as little as $1/mo to help me make better videos:
I don't trust this Patreon thing - what's your PayPal? - Here's a handy link!
I like PayPal in pink! - Here's my ko-fi if that's your thing (and coffee is your game):
But I want to send you something tangible! - I do have a wishlist on Amazon, though it's a bit complicated with the international shipping situation. This is the US one:
And here's the French one:
Can I come stay with you in Paris? - Have you seen my apartment? It's too small for me as it is!
OK, but how do I use the Metro when I'm there? - I made a handy video for you:

French bicycle tour Part 2
This is the raw footage of the 700-mile Voie de la liberté (Liberty Trail) bicycle tour through France in 1989, which followed the path Gen. Patton took during the liberation of France during WWII. It started on the coast in Cherbourg, then went across the French countryside, up through Luxembourg, then ended at Bastogne, Belgium. I myself rode in this and finished it. When you watch this video, you will feel like you are right there with them, cycling along with them. For those who know the language, there is plenty of French to translate. The riders consisted of Americans, French, Canadians, Belgians and others. (If you see a group of old men riding together, those are the French. Their elderly are pretty healthy!) This was a very tiring trip - we rode 130 miles or more per day, riding from sunup to sunset, for a whole week. We were pretty darn sore! But the French countryside was beautiful. It's so green and flat!

Armed Forces Cycling Classic 2019 2/3 Win!
Day 2 of the Armed Forces Cycling Classic, the Clarendon Crit. My race didn't really start till two thirds of the way in. My teammate Chris Peltzer was trying to get a break established earlier and I spent the first part of the race trying to feel out the field and figure out who was who and conserve some energy.
Strava File:
0:32 This is kind of where my race starts. I've moved up and am sitting a little closer to the front and trying to be opportunistic. I see a good mix of riders go up the road and we are close enough to the end that I decide to get in on it.
0:58 I tried to do a hard pull to motivate the break since they started to sit up and accidentally pop two of them off. Bill, who later gets 3rd, hops on.
We go for maybe 2 laps or so trading turns but not really building a big gap.
1:22 The pack catches us, Peltzer counter attacks but the field shuts it down immediately.
1:45 A random shoving match, not really sure why.
1:57 Two laps to go and i'm in not a great spot, I need to move up a lot of wheels.
2:02 It's late in the game, I can't surf wheels up so I just burn a little match and grab like 12 wheels.
2:27 Logan? from Kelly tries to take a lap flyer, I start to jump on it but realize Shrewsberry is jumping on it so I let him and the field grab on to it and decide to see how this plays out. I probably gave up a few more wheels then I should have but it worked out.
3:34 A quick prayer to the grip gods and into the last turn we go. Time to sprint! I picked a lower gear that I could get on top of immediately. This almost bites me because I'm running out gear towards the line and the other Andrew has picked a higher gear which he has now wound up and is gaining on me as we hit cross the finish. One of these days i'll get sprint shifters.
