DianaS25

Hi! My name is Diana, I'm 25 Australian and just moved to Brussels in search of work. I have a few friends here who are from Belgium but also looking for some other friends who would like to come out for a drink, possibly people who speak English as well. Any advice on where to live would be great to :)

Hi there,

I'm in the same situation, I don't know anybody in Brussels and it'd be cool to meet people to share some tips and good local beer.
Let me know if you're up to it. :)

Hi all,
             I would like to join you guys as well. I have been living in Brussels since 7 months, and I've gotten friends only from my job, then I'd like to meet more people.

Hi all!
I study in Brussels and when I'm back (around the 18th of september) I'd be happy to have a beer with you!
I need to improve my English since I'm going to do an internship Malawi next year, and as I like to meet people from different countries, it seems that this website is an ideal way to do both!

Cheers,

Jasper

Hello you !

Do you still search for friends ? :-)

Hi there, new people.  I'm born Flemish Belgian, live around Louvain but could be meeting up when I'm in Brussels on Mondays or Tuesdays.  Love to meet any foreinger, but especially Greek ones because I would like to start learning the language.  After 16.00 could be possible, most easiest for me would be over noon-break around 13.00, easiest place to meet for me would be Muntplein/Place de la Monnaie, at the entrance of the Munt.Punt (Public Flemish library, well indicated and open building).
I can be contacted over mail, flemishmarc@yahoo.com, as I'm not reading blogs very regularly.  Please mention 'meeting Belgian' in subject, so I don't disregard your message as spam.  THX
Welcome to this small country with its many interesting and often strange things, from beers to politics...
Marc.

I would be up for a meet up with you people! For me it would be best to meet on a weekend since I work during the week. Maybe for a coffee some place nice the first weekend of october? :)

Hello Diana, just a quick one to wish you a warm welcome here in sunny Europe. My name is Vincent, have lived in Britain where I got my masters in psychology and languages from Glasgow University. Currently living in Belgium and looking into opening my own business in Brussels (keep my fingers crossed). Haven't really had the chance to complete my profile but I would be more than happy to chat anytime. Hope you settled in all right + don't hesitate to contact if in need of infos about Brussels and surroundings.

All the best, keep in touch.

Hi everyone,

I have recently moved to Belgium from London and am hoping to meet some new people. If there is any group meetings being arranged on the weekends I would love to join xx

Raginbull85

Hi guys. It looks like there are many expats looking for new friends in Belgium, and I am one of them as well! I have moved here already 10 months ago but, outside my working enviroment, I haven't really had any chance to get some friends here yet. Not sure if there is a community that meets regularly, but  I think that Brussel is a continual coming and going of expats and I'd really like to join any existing group, maybe for a coffee or a beer in the weekend. Let me know if anyone is interested.

Doctor Lo

if any plan gets really ever out of this thread Im still up for it!

aneczkapl

Who wants to meet up on Thursday? ;)

Jivra Lanibe

Hey there party people  :P, just arrived in Brussels as well and looking to meet new people, do let me know if there's a meeting going on, thx.

olenika

Hello everyone, after having spent some time abroad I'm back in my home-town of Brussels.
Since I had the chance to meet wonderful people that introduced me to their local culture and friends, it is for me natural to have the same attitude :) So if you want to practice your language skills or just hangout, I'm in.
