Take care, everyone! It was nice meeting all of you
Ashley

Yes, it was so much fun! Thanks all for coming!
Let's do it again!

Sorry I missed everyone.  I was out sick last weekend.   Hope to be able to meet all of you another time.  I was considering grabbing drinks after work in Helsinki this Friday if anyone was interested.  Teerenpeli(microbrewery and restaurant) near Kamppi is a nice meetup spot.  Let me know if anyone is interested  or has any other thoughts on Friday drinks.

enjoy ur time people

I'm visiting this weekend, so if anyone happens to be free on Monday afternoon/evening & fancies a drink, feel free to give me a shout.

Hi everybody i will arrive in helsinki on 28th april and then leave on 1st of may.  Would really like to meet somebody and hang out - get around helsinki!
my name is khaled maarouf, male 33 yrs, an engineer from egypt, would be more than happy to meet people from all around the world. Currently i am on a business trip in milan italy. I have some nice pharonic souvenirs from ancient egypt to share with you my mobile number is 00201001018110. See u soon - hopefully!

Hi Maarouf,
I would normally love to hang out in the city, it should be a really nice weekend, hopefully good weather. Unfortunately, I am moving this weekend and will be very busy! Have a good visit

Hi everyone, this all sounds good, but think i missed out on all the fun, just discovered this site! I moved to Helsinki from New Zealand this March and will be here for some time so will have plenty of chances to meet fellow expats! Hope to do that soon.

Hey Kiwi,
I have another New Zealander friend here too. How have you been finding things?

thank you for your response mcmeg12 I hope everything went fine with your moving Helsinki is really cool, weather couldnt be greater, thanks again and have great time

Hey  mcmeg12,

I'm finding things ok at the moment, still getting settled and used to all things Finnish again. I should be back in Helsinki this week and hopefully things have warmed up and can go out exploring again.

Cheers,

Hello everybody,

I'm Portuguese and am new in Helsinki (and Finland).
I have just moved here and was wondering if there are any meet-ups going on.

I'd like to make new friends in Helsinki. Is anybody up for a coffee?
The weather hasn't been bad and it seems the city becomes alive!
By the way, I hope you guys got to see the fireworks yesterday - it was stunning!

See you,
Sofia

Hi Sofia!

You might want to create your own thread (like the original post in this one) and set a date, that way people who are interested can come. The meeting we had from this thread was quite fun

If you don't want to arrange anything yourself, there is a group on Facebook called "Helsinki Expat Meetup" which is arranged specifically for this reason. They meet on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

I look forward to seeing your post! I would be willing to go
Ashley

ImIndonesian Im new here in the forum, and Im planning to move to Espoo. Maybe next month. I really hope I could meet you guys in the near future.

Hi Sofia! Hi Rio! and Everyone!
Yeah, it's been awhile since we had our fun meetup! some of us got busy, then everyone was gone for the summer... I have been meeting up with some of you for coffee and stuff, so if you guys have suggestions for meet ups, you are all welcome to post them here!  I can join, if I can! And as Ashley said, you can make your own thread or join Helsinki Expat meetup too, which they have every week.
Will let you know if I come up with something soon. Feel free to do the same! and Welcome to Espoo,Helsinki, Finland!!! Hope to meet you soon!

Hi,

I am new in Helsinki. I want to meet also people and maybe some spanish people too. Do you have next plans?

Can you answer me to pilar.silvestre@gmail.com

I was this summer a week in Uzbekistan!!!

Pilar

Me too. I'll be in Helsinki until June probably, but since i work from home I am very isolated and have almost no contact with people. Needless to say, it can get a little lonely.
Let me know if there is an activity my husband and I can join!

Well, we can try to meet.

What about sunday afternoon to take a cafee and then meet? My phone: 0468824753 or pilar.silvestre@gmail.com

If you fancy socialising with a group of other expats & Finns, follow HelsinkiTweetUp on Twitter. Steve is currently organising something every month & there's been a great turn-out so far.

This sounds great! Please let me know next time everyone gets together. Thanks!
