InterNations — A Community for American Expats in Rotterdam
Hello to all Americans in Rotterdam! Are you interested in getting to know fellow expats in Rotterdam? Looking for advice from other Americans, e.g. wondering if there are any bars in Rotterdam which will be showing your favorite baseball or American football team’s upcoming match or where to go in town for st￭ turkey?
There’s no doubt about it: Rotterdam is a city of change and innovation. The Netherlands’ second-most populous city is a diverse city known for its status as a major economic and logistic center not only in the Netherlands but in all of Europe, but also for the city’s emphasis on innovation and design, the local café culture, its many waterways, and much more! With the metro, bus, tram, and waterbus services, as well as numerous bike paths, navigating your way around the city from one place to the next is simple. This also means that if you don’t want to live among the hustle and bustle of the center, you can enjoy a quieter life in Blijdorp or up-and-coming Rotterdam Noord, for example, which are only a 10-minute commute away from Rotterdam’s center.
Although Rotterdam has lots to offer, you might be wondering where and how you can meet other Americans in the city. Luckily, InterNations is here to make this easier for you! You’re warmly invited to join the InterNations community. Within our international network in Rotterdam, there’s a vibrant circle of American expats from all regions of USA, including New York City, Los Angeles, and beyond.
