Hi all,

Hi my name is Cherene and I have been living in the Netherlands for the past 4 months now having moved here from North Riding, Johannesburg with my hubby and two daughters. I would love to meet some South Africans who live in the Hilversum area. I am a newbie on the site.

We moved here for my husbands work, my daughter goes to a Dutch immersion school so meeting other expats has been really difficult. I'm a stay at home mom for now but am looking to start up my business from South Africa here.

I have a 17 month old daughter and so looking for some South African mamas who would like to be friends.

:cheers: Hello every one I am not an expat I live in The Netherlands almost 13 years now. I felt so alone the days I came here at the beginning. So I can understand who come here to live. So I thought of giving some comfort either welcome if some one needed. For me your nationality does not matter but If you speak English that would be much better. So I say hello. And I have a daughter from age 9.

Hi,
I go by Jenny. I will move to Utrecht in Feb 14 ( very romantic, right) and I will love to connect with English or Spanish communities. I will live in Utrecht for 11 months with my working husband and my 2.5 years old daughter. New in this role of stay-at-home mom, I will love to fully experience The Netherlands.

[color=#DE20C0]Hello everyone I am Korona.

Irish, currently still living here, looking to move to Netherlands this year.

Hope to find (at least) summer work to get me on my feet.

HarryWinter

Hey I'm from Cape Town, South Africa and have been trying to move to Netherlands. It's currently a goal for the next 1-2 years to immigrate there. I'm a DJ / producer and the reason I really want to move is because my girlfriend lives in Groningen and I just can't live without her really. I just have no idea how to get a work visa with my current profession...

Hi! My name is Juan Carlos Romero and I will be doing my MBA at Rotterdam School of Management around 2016 to 2017.

Hi everyone! I'm from Finland and though I am not yet living in the Netherlands, I will be moving to Utrecht to join my boyfriend and to start my studies next September.

ehgaie45

Hello Everyone, I am from India. 21 years old , I am moving to Netherlands in August this year to begin my studies. But, I don't have any friends back there. So, I want a handful of friends to share thoughts with and get to know about the country, dutch people and of course about yourself as well. I love to listen to people and I like to chat. So, I am looking for some good friends to make my long stay of 2 years, memorable in the country. I don't mind which part of Netherlands you are, I just want some cool friends. So, yea I am looking forward to your message.

RachelamI

Hi everyone :)
I"m Rachel and living in the Netherlands. Probably for the coming years. I work here as well and am single.

As I am used to live and work abroad, and I speak 6 languages, I gladly support other expats as much as I can.
Especially those that are very new to the life of ''an Expat''.
This can be a HUGE change and overwhelming. :o
So, if you are in some type of stress, give a shout and don't sit with it. You are certainly not alone here  :joking:

NataschaJB

Hi I'm Natascha and I currently reside in Johannesburg, South Africa. My husband is being transferred to the Netherlands in August and we'll most likely settle in Amstelveen as it's closest to his new office. I'm a television journalist although I'll probably be a stay-at-home mom soon. We have a 3-month old baby

Hello TripDisco and welcome on board :)

Could you please avoid writing with your caps lock on, as it is considered bad practise (and also regarded as shouting) on a public forum.
