About us
Connect with Amsterdam through a Local
This group is for international professionals new to Amsterdam, who want to feel more at home in the city and learn how to navigate the city like a local. As a bonus, you'll connect with a few fellow professionals (max 3 attendees) in a small, informative session held in a nice coffee spot. Understand the city’s history, (sub)cultures, neighborhoods, and trends with Emma, a local who loves exploring Amsterdam and sharing tips.
About Emma
I often share tips with friends and family, and doing the same for international professionals feels meaningful. It’s a way to reduce loneliness, strengthen the bond between locals and internationals, and help the city feel a bit more connected. I was born in Amstelveen, live in Oud-West, have a double MSc degree in engineering, professional experience in strategic consulting, and am 34 years old.
Ask questions, get practical advice, and build meaningful connections along the way. Perfect for newcomers or anyone curious to understand Amsterdam from a local perspective.
