What we’re about
Hello!
We love Leuven - it’s full of inspiring people - bright researchers, cool artists, entrepreneurs, creative students and top business minds. People from all around the world come here to pursue their aspirations.
We dream of building a strong international community around Leuven. Connecting people who just arrived with the ones who have lived here many years.
This group is meant to connect internationals in the region through a variety of casual meetups and activities, anything from coffee mornings to group hikes or movie nights.
Everyone is welcome!

About the volunteer:
Kevin is a self-proclaimed productivity nerd on a mission to work smarter, not harder, while fostering an inclusive community that kicks loneliness to the curb! He knows firsthand how easy it is to turn into a potato and binge-watch cat videos instead of getting things done. That’s why he’s super excited to roll up his sleeves, make real progress on projects, and build connections and friendships along the way—because who says productivity can’t be fun? Having lived in Leuven for five years, he’s ready to share ideas, inspire others, and create a supportive environment where everyone can thrive together. Let’s turn those “meh” moments into “heck yeah!” achievements!
