How to make friends in Brussels

Hi ! I´ve been in Brussels  for 3 weeks.. and I really feel this is a place where it´s easy to make friends!! at least among other expats    but at the same I´m always open to meet new people so don´t hesitate to contact me to hang out in this city !! Or if any kind of meet-up comes out of this thread.

Cheers,

My name is Ernest, residing in London. I frequently visit
Brussels if i have time of from work. I work in an Academic Institution and will like to meet like minded people In Brussels
who appreciate the arts and sight seeing mainly by walking or hiking.

Hello Ms Filipina, may i know if you reside in Brussels ?

My regards
Ernest

Hi everyone,
I'll be moving to Leuven in early September, but can quite easily make it to a meet up in Brussels if something is organised!

Hey all!!

My name is Andi and I moved from Germany to Brussels a few weeks ago for a job. Well, now I am looking for some nice people to hang out with, for discovering the city, doing sports or whatever. Anyone up for that? Looking forward to your replies.

Cheers

Hi Mamta,

I'm Rishi from India and pretty much a newbie, as you would discover from my profile. I wanted to know if there are any Indian cultural centers or group which organizes events for festivals like Diwali etc. Its just that I'm finding hard to meet and make Indian friends here or probably most of them who I have met are pretty much reserved to their self. Anyways please do let me know if you have any information.

I would love to be part of such Events and get to know more people to make my stay in Belgium a memorable one. 

Thanks,
Rishi

hahahhahahahahahhahaha
it happens to me also as i am arab )))

Hey Rishi..

There are many groups in Brussels that organize events, etc.

As you said, it is sometimes hard to find friends.

You may join these groups in FB as a starting point (As you are looking for fellow Indians).
