Internationals get together: 🎁Sinterklaas edition at Leidseplein✨
Amsterdam Marriott Hotel, Stadhouderskade 12, Amsterdam, NH, NLGet your ticket👉HERE!
🧡3€ DONATION TO SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY🧡
But before doing it, do not forget to RSVP here on meetup! 😉
Hello Expats!
Join us for a festive Sinterklaas celebration 🎁! We've hosted successful events in the past and can't wait to gather together once again for this special occasion. Let's keep the tradition alive!
Here's the deal:
1 - Each guest brings a small pressie worth at least 2€ - anything goes, from a choccy letter to a keychain to an old book to a bracelet to socks... Just make sure it's wrapped up nicely.
2 - Upon arrival, you'll spot a large box to drop off your gift and snag a new one from a fellow attendee. Be imaginative, comical, and a tad zany because this is all just a playful game!
When we first planned this event, we were concerned about coordinating a gift exchange among so many people. However, nearly everyone participated and it was a huge success! So we're relying on your support to make it happen again!
While this activity is entirely your choice, we warmly invite you to be part of this Dutch tradition. Beyond the gift exchange, you'll discover genuine connections, infectious joy, and a sense of satisfaction in bringing happiness to others.
##### Why Join Us?
At AIC, we believe in creating a safe and welcoming space where you can show up solo and still feel like you’re meeting up with friends. No need to call anyone to tag along—70% of the group are regulars who love to hang out and make new connections.
P.S.: This isn’t a dating event! It’s simply a place to chill, chat, and connect with amazing people from all over the world. 💬🌍
