À propos de nous
The Utrecht Hub is a social club for Utrecht expats with an international membership that includes both recently relocated Expats and long term residents. We host frequent special events. The primary goal is to meet interesting people and make new friends. If anyone is interested in hosting an event, please let one of the organizers know.
While the group is primarily focused on expats, native Dutch are highly encouraged to join. The more international the merrier!
