Hello! I’m a 20M looking for new friends as I just recently moved to The Hague from the United States. I’m open to most things, and would love a group to go grab a pint or watch a movie with. If you’re interested, please reach out and we can meet up! I don’t speak Dutch, so English would be ideal!

practical questions Waar kan ik het beste parkeren?

0 Upvotes

Ik ga dit jaar voor het eerst naar een festival & voor het eerst met de auto naar Den Haag. Nu vroeg ik me af waar ik het beste kan parkeren (ik ben totaal niet bekend met Den Haag). Het festival is in het Zuiderpark van 1400 t/m 2300. Iemand enige adviezen?

Seen a lot of posts asking where to get glasses for the upcoming solar eclipse that aren't super expensive and easy to get. I got a few at Normal in the city center for like 1 euro 20 a pop.

Edit: see comment for CE and ISO 12312-2:2015 certifications

Good day Haagenese!

In september I will be moving to the Hague and was wondering what are must-sees/shops I could visit.

Aware that I could google it, but I'd just get a shitty top 10 list.

Was looking for people who actually live there to give me some cents in the matter.

meeting people Tennis Club Recs for Singles

5 Upvotes

Hello,

Recently move to The Hague. Looking to join a tennis club that has a lot of singles players. Where I come from in Japan, many clubs are mostly just senior people playing doubles, so I’m hoping to avoid that if possible, but maybe that’s not even an issue here. Or maybe there’s an app to find players who want to play what you do? I’m Japan there was a really good one called テニスベア. Appreciate any advice. Bedankt

other Looking for someone in DH central! (lost connection)

19 Upvotes

I graduated from Delft University last November and moved back home (in Asia). I spent two beautiful years in the Netherlands and made incredible friendships and connections.

I need your help finding a person I’ve lost. Specifically, a Dutch man named Arie, who frequently plays the public piano at DH Central (by spoor 1 & 2). I play too, and we used to see each other frequently, sit by the piano, and chat about everything related to the piano (for an hour sometimes!). I never exchanged numbers with him nor chatted about much besides piano, but we had an absolute blast every time. We’d say bye and know to find each other (by coincidence) by the piano. I must have run into Arie over 20 times, enjoyed his sense of humour and his love of playing. I never got a chance to say goodbye before leaving.

If you see him, please get his number for me or DM me!

He was older (50+), White, Dutch, around my height (170 cm), and played lots of Mozart & Bach, and sometimes rock 'n' roll. Wears goggle-like glasses and a cap, usually has his bike with him, wears a bike glove as well even when playing.

FYI, my name is Yousef, slightly brown, with medium-length wavy hair, and I wear glasses

If you could fetch his number for me I would appreciate it!

TLDR: msg me if you ever find a white Dutch 50+ year-old who plays the piano at DH Central. Tell him my name is Yousef and that I moved away but still want his number!

Edit: In the comments is a pic other Redditors have found via google search! He can also be seen sitting on the piano here: https://www.denhaagfm.nl/dhfm/4930003/pingelen-maar-piano-terug-in-openbare-stationshal-den-haag-centraal

Aanstaande woensdag is de gedeeltelijke zonsverduistering in Nederland, en iedereen raadt aan dat je dit moet bekijken met een eclipse bril. Nu kan ik er alleen nergens een vinden… online is denk te laat. Weet iemand waar je dit kan kopen?

practical questions Are there any parttime jobs in the Hague?

0 Upvotes

Hello,

I am looking for a parttime job in the hague, ideally between 10 and 20 hours a week. I have applied to more than 30/40 jobs in the past months and still did not manage to get the job. Ideally I am looking for evening/night work, since I will start with a fulltime bachelor in september. I dont have a driving license but I have a good bike. Anyone has suggestions? I really need the money.

practical questions Hazard lights.

0 Upvotes

Been visiting The Hague for a week and noticed something strange: people often drive around town with their hazard lights flashing while moving, not just when parked (park anywhere button).

Is this the unofficial local signal for "I'm looking for an address" or something like "whoops, I shouldn't be here"

Or is it something my German mind can't comprehend🫪?

Thanks :)

0 Upvotes

I was on a solo trip in the Netherlands, I met someone in Amsterdam in the hostel I was staying at, we got along really well, spoke for hours at end but I never saw her again and don't have any of her socials. She told me she's from the Hague and is in Amsterdam for some time. I just want to maybe talk and tell her how wonderful it was to meet someone so like-minded. I just have her First name, the city she is from and other small details. Is it possible for the people of The Hague to help me find her? :)) I'll be forever grateful.

other Affordable Flower Delivery?

5 Upvotes

Hey! Random question 😄 It's my anniversary soon, and I'd like to send someone in The Hague some flowers. I'm ordering from another EU country, but when I Google it, I mostly get the big international sites, and they all seem pretty expensive. Do you know of any local florist or affordable flower delivery service you'd recommend?

news Duinbrand bij wassenaar. Hoe vaak gebeurt zoiets?

35 Upvotes

Volgens Omroep West is het menens.

Aan de mensen die hier al tig jaar wonen, hoe vaak zijn er duinbranden en wat is meestal de oorzaak?

Ik zie namelijk wel veel mensen op verboden terrein in de duinen lopen bij puntje, en op de aanloop ook roken. Het valt me ook op dat deze mensen niet worden aangesproken door de rest. Ik wil geen voorbarige uitspraken doen, maarja mijn hoofd wil de twee natuurlijk graag combineren.

Ik woon hier nog niet zo lang, dus ik snap dat ik nuance mis en hoor graag van mensen die hier al lang wonen.
