Hey Expats in Amsterdam!

💬 What's in Store:
- Casual conversations in multiple languages
- An opportunity to meet people from diverse cultures
- A chance to practice your speaking skills in a laid-back setting
- At the entrance of the cafe, you will get a sticker where you can write your name, the language(s) you speak, and the language(s) you want to practice. English and Dutch are certainly the most practiced languages. However, our members come from all over the world, so depending on the evening, you might be able to find someone to practice your Japanese, Italian, Ukrainian, and more! 🙂
