Inside Groningen is a guide for international tourists, students, and ex-pats visiting Groningen. We also cover hotspots around Groningen and want to help out English spoken visitors and locals getting around Groningen.
When Evelyn came back home from traveling around the world she noticed Groningen is very focused on the Dutch-speaking locals. And working for an international company, she knew there are just a lot of international students that stay and live in Groningen, who can’t speak Dutch that well.
There just isn’t a lot of information for English-speaking visitors, locals, and tourists. And she thinks that’s strange, because, we get a lot of international visitors every year and have a great number of international students.
Groningen is a University City. Next to students and tourists, there are also a lot of ex-pats and international tourists visiting our city. Since Evelyn travels as a travel blogger a lot herself, she knows what she wants to see and knows when visiting a city for the first time. So Evelyn started Inside Groningen.
