Summary

👥💬 Experience the power of connection and become a Buddy of a Newcomer! Buddy to Buddy will start a new matching round in Wageningen in early March.

Detailed description

Do you enjoy expanding your world?

👯 The concept is simple: by pairing newcomers with fellow citizens with similar interests, connections are made that might not otherwise be made. The goal is to create a welcoming environment in which both newcomers and Wageningen residents can learn from each other.


Become part of the Wageningen Buddy community!

🎉In addition to the contact with your buddy, we all do fun things with the group. So you are not alone! Buddy to Buddy organizes several activities that the buddy couples can enjoy together in an accessible way. At the end of each buddy trajectory, a festive closing is organized, which often marks the start of lasting friendships.


Are you available for 4 months?

📆 It is a low-threshold trajectory of 4 months and ends before the summer holidays. There is a fixed group activity at Thuis Wageningen (Stationsstraat 32) approximately once a month. You can decide when and where you meet with your Buddy.


Sign up!

Is Buddy to Buddy something for you? Curious? Get in touch or sign up via: https://airtable.com/appXHmUAeIiHRJw4z/shrEwXfRwNxxSTD5y
