I have met a plethora of fellow Expats. One group I got connected to through the Brazilian fight dance Capoeira. Since meeting we created a WhatsApp group that is fittingly named “Happy Amsterdam”. Its original idea was to make a video using the song Happy by Pharrell… But the video was never created. The group has morphed into an amazing network that continues to grow when new friends visit or move to Amsterdam. Now it is for helping each other out and making weekend plans, going to events or just out for drinks and always having company. Write it in the group and you are never alone. We have gone indoor rock climbing, taken cycle trips to Haarlem, enjoyed BBQ’s at the park, gone to festivals such as Madness, and 30+ of us journeyed to the seaside.
