What we’re about

Connect with Amsterdam through a Local
This group is for international long-stay newcomers (0-2 years experience living in A'dam) who want to feel more at home in Amsterdam and learn how to navigate the city like a local. As a bonus, you'll connect with a few fellow participants (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 newcomers 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 background in engineering and strategic consulting, and am 33 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.
