About me

I’m Julia, a Dutch local from an expat family, with over 20 years of experience in communication and psychology.
I’ve helped over 1,000 people connect and feel at home and now I’m creating a space for it in Arnhem/Nijmegen.
Because even in a city full of people, it’s easy to feel isolated.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. We all need a space to belong and this is mine to share with you.

------------------------------------------------------------------

This meetup is for you if


  • You’re looking for real conversations, not small talk
  • You’re new in the Netherlands , or just open to meeting new people
  • You’d like to grow your personal or business mindset through human connection
