Hi everyone, I'm Naqib from Malaysia. Recently moved from Toulouse last week (lived there for 2 years) to Lille as a student. So I don't know Lille at all.

The French people says my french is very fluent but I still find it a little hard to connect with them (so sorry guys) but I'm native in Bahasa Malaysia (although I doubt anyone speaks it here) and English

I'm expected to be here for 3 years so would be happy to make new friends.

Hey Naqib, check out the Lille International Friends group on Facebook. They have a weekly event on Wednesday nights with lots of internationals and usually students.

Do you like playing boardgames? I'm an English speaker and always trying to find people to play with here in Lille.
