Because the first Meet-Up in Rotterdam was a huge succes, I created a Telegram Group to keep in touch and quickly select new dates in the future! The people from 'Meet-Up #1' picked Januari 13 as their next date. You will be able to find us in 'Kaapse Maria' starting 15:00. They are a craft beer place, and some of the first participants thought you can drink these like 'mainstream' beers and well - they went home very very happy (of course the company helped) and got a nice bonus headache the next morning! :D

Be warned!

Do you want to join?

For now I will announce the Rotterdam Meet-Up dates in posts on my profile, and will let those who attended at least one meeting pick the date in the Telegram Group. My reasoning is: once you showed up for a meeting you get a bigger say in the next meet-ups! You can always contact me through Discord for additional details: soyrosa#1544.

Who will join?

After a good example by @pennsif I will try to collect a list of Dutch-speaking Steemians in the course of the next weeks and months. Hopefully some of these will try to join the Meet-Ups. I found some names through @fullcoverbetting in his post after we had an exchange about Dutch and Belgium people on Steem.

Those who attended Meet-Up #1:

Those who showed interest outside of the Dutch community

@detlev (would be a special guest from Germany!)

Do you know of more Dutch (speaking) Steemians?

Let me know in the comments! It would be fun to see how big we can get this to grow. The first responses after Meet-Up #1 can be summarized as: This was fun! It felt like we'd known each other for ages! Let's do it again! It's pretty spectacular to meet fellow Steemians and to have a few 'sort of local' meet-up opportunities is very worthwhile. Hope to see a few of you join :-)
