I'm an english guy, originally from newcastle and lived in edinburgh. Have lived in Leeuwarden for a year now with my boyfriend and work in Sneek. Always up for getting to know some other expats and sharing experiences.

I'd like to add to this group to say I'll be moving to Groningen/Assen area in around 1 month. If the OP or anyone else is still around it'd be good to meet up!

The usual: looking for better weather, food and culture!
I'm actually starting a new job in the area and fancied a change from the dreary London life. I'll be moving over with my OH on a semi-permanent basis (i.e. until we get bored) so expect to see me around!

Re: English guy in groningen
hehe, well better weather, food and culture than London, not sure what to promise you there. Having lived in both London and NL also I'd say I do miss the huge range of choice available in London, however I don't miss the hectic mad lifestyle that came along with it, and much prefer the relaxed and quieter life in north NL brings.
I'm based in LW which isn't too far from Groningen, however it is much smaller!
