International Almere is an English speaking organization whose aim is to connect and build essential social networks with people who live and work in the Flevoland region. We are not only socially active but we provide information and support to those not yet arrived, newly arrived and to those that have lived here for many years. Our goal is to help with the integration process by creating a socially cohesive community between the Dutch and international communities. I helped to set up this expat organization to help those people who moved to our area and to create a community for them to feel at home.
