About

We are a social group for expats in Delft and region. Our subscription-free services include social events, networking facilitation, wanted/for sale ads and practical information for expats in and around Delft.

Our activities include pub drinks every 2 weeks, weekly squash meets, and evenings of board games, poker, DVD films, Dutch conversation, cooking, restaurant outtings, our own pub quizzes, cinema outtings, etc.

The group is centred on members’ involvement: members organise and host the group’s activities for each other, and contribute to blog entries such as ‘top-and-worst-things-about-Holland, etc.

To find out more about the group, check our FAQ section.

You are welcome to join if you are:

  • an expat (or closely affiliated to the expat life)
  • over 18
  • not using the group for non-expat commercial promotion
  • not using the group as a dating service: if you find the love of your life through us (as has now happened a couple of times!), that’s marvelous, but please do not see the group as an opportunity to score.
  • respectful of other members’ opinions, cultures, etc.
  • Should inappropriate behaviour come to our attention, we reserve the right to remove the concerned member from the group.
