Re: Any expats in Zwolle??
Hi folks I've moved to the Diezerpoort area of Zwolle to live with my Dutch fiancee. Originally from Birmingham but worked in London for 15 years, so I'm still experiencing a bit of culture shock! Would be great to meet some local peope as I work miles away in the Hague hanging out with work colleagues is a bit tricky.

Hi Nicki
great to hear from you! Shame you're moving away, we were planning on it as my commute is crazy, but as we can't sell the flat I'm catching up with my Dutch lessons on the train...slowly...

Hi all,
I've recently moved to Zwolle as well (Aaalanden), with boyfriend and work in Putten. I'm not British, I'm Romanian.
I would also like to meet some local people since my company is all males, mostly older than me and religious - so slim chances of really befriending someone. And sometimes it's good to just have a cup of coffee and bitch about life.
I'm perfectly ok if you mind that I'm not a Brit but thought I'd give it a try since I haven't really found a Romanian community here

Hi Kari,
Thanks for the reply. I call Stadshagen 'the modern development' cause of all the new houses there. Have been to the area a few times.
Would you fancy meeting up for a drink/coffee/ijs one weekend, I imagine working days are quite busy otherwise.
If anyone else is willing to join I'd be happy to meet them as well. I especially miss my old group of female friends that I used to hang out with

We also live in the Aa-Landen but due to move very soon....I know a few other English here and sure they would love to meet up with you and will let them know. Enjoy your time in Zwolle!
