Re: Looking to meet new friends
Hi Adam,
U have been here quite a long time already. If i got my maths right u moved here when u were 18.
I also live in noord brabant but unfortunately right over the other side. I live in Uden. I have been here about 19 years now all together. I moved over after meeting a lovely dutch girl who is now a lovely dutch woman and mother of my 3 wonderful kids
I am not too mobile at the moment as i ruptured my achiles tendon playing football (ain't sports great for ur health ). Otherwise i would be up for a beer sometime - den bosch is pretty central for us both and a nice place for a drink (yeah i know, any place with a bar is a nice place for a drink ).
What brought you to holland? What do you do for a living? U must be pretty settled after 14 years.
Grtz

Re: Looking to meet new friends
You're story sounds very similar to mine Adam.
I moved here when I was 16, been here almost 14 years now making me 29.
I also studied electrical engineering here too.
I live in Eindhoven but work in Den Bosch so maybe You, Mark and I can meet up in Den Bosch sometime.
I'm in the last week of my foreign assignment so will be back from Sunday onwards

Hi Stevie, how is life in the middle east?
Sounds to me like we have got the makings of a Noord Brabant Expat Beer Club
You will have to give me a couple of months before I can sort out a date for a get together. I start fysio next week.

Hi Adam. I'm new to the forum, but wanted to drop in to say hi. I live in the Breda area and used to live in Tilburg so I know that town pretty well also. I've lived in NL for about eight years. Very nice to meet a fellow Brit in Noord-Brabant.
@Katie good luck with your move tomorrow. Big day!
