Feeling Lonely? How About Volunteering?
We are all having our moments of feeling lonely. Moving home and settling in a new country can be stressful and comes with lots of challenges. Language barriers and cultural adjustments don’t make it sometime easy to make new friends.
If you are looking to overcome those feeling of isolation and connect to your community, consider volunteering. Over 40% of the adult Dutch population is doing something in their free time. It can be as easy as helping to organize an event at the school of your kids, coaching the soccer team, maintaining the Singel park, walk with elderly, teaching English at the asylum seeker place, to name a few. Explore more options at www.leidenvrijwilligerswerk.nl or Volunteer The Hague.
