What we’re about
Based in Amsterdam, we are the largest and coolest international community in the Netherlands. We’re a social club for Amsterdam expats with an international membership that includes both recently relocated expats and long-term residents. Our doors are open to everyone. Whether you are an expat, a Dutch who's internationally oriented, or simply a traveller passing through, you're all welcome to join our growing multicultural family.
On a weekly basis, we host a range of networking and social events at various locations in the city, where expats and locals can gather to meet interesting people, create valuable connections and foster new friendships. Our events are always conducted in a friendly and welcoming environment.
We meet up regularly to: drink & mingle at various Amsterdam hotspots, explore the city's good food with social dining, watch comedy shows and plays, go clubbing and dancing, watch and play games and sports, go on special trips and rides... and other authentic Amsterdam experiences.

See all- 🧹City Cleanup & Cake 🍰Waag , Amsterdam
Our next City Clean-up will officially be part of De Wallen Festival, We'll be returning to the historical Café In de Waag for our post-cleanup mingling session, where we'll get to enjoy free cake, coffee/tea afterwards!
Looking like a fairytale castle, Café In de Waag is located in a medieval building that was one of the Amsterdam's oldest city gates (Saint Anthony's Gate). Dating back to 1488, the 15th-century monument is right smack in the middle of the bustling Nieuwmarkt area. One can feel its historic charm, with church bells from Oudekerkstoren ringing twice an hour, and especially in the evenings when the place is lit by 300 candles.
- Meet up Nieuwmarkt, in front of de Waag
- Gear will be provided
- Coffee/tea and cake free 😋This cleanup is part of the Wallen Festival. Stick around for lots of fun activities (mostly free): music, art, workshops, stories and much more!

Starting at 2 PM, Paula and her Hikes & Pictures community will do a city walk from the Central station to our picnic location in Westerpark. If you live outside of Amsterdam and are taking the train here, this is a fun way to get to the picnic and make some new friends along the way!
This is a BYO (bring your own), potluck style event. I'll be bringing some munchies and games. Bring a little something of your own too and spread the fun around!
Good things to bring: Picnic mat, bluetooth speaker, drinks + snacks, cups and cutlery, games etc. Don't leave home without your good vibes 😎
