Groningen

I live here WOOHOO

I summered in Groningen in 2006 and loved it. It’s a very comfortable place, not too large but very concentrated in its Centrum and full of energy. There are always students about, as late as 2 or 3am, and it’s quite safe to walk about at those hours—not always true of mid-size Dutch cities (cf Leeuwarden or Amersfoort, dead quiet by 10pm!). Local restaurants, both brauncafes and ethnic places, abound. Taco was a particular favorite, and the portions at Napoli are enormous. Best pub: the Walrus, where every night there are different game clubs meeting (chess, go, strategy board games, cards). Lovely parks, too. And well-connected by rail with the rest of the country, of course!

well.. i went on a study abroad program.. but it was mostly traveling, having fun and meeting cool people from all over the world.. if you are a student going there.. you’ll have fun fo’ sho’

I was born in Groningen and lived there for a couple of years.
I have been back to visit a few times since. It’s a wonderful city.

Born there, done that. lol

Apparently my great great grandparents (or something like that) emigrated from the Gronigen area, so it would be cool to visit.

far away,.. but nice to visit the city with alot of greens.

second home – northernmost city and one of the most gentle places in the world

I lived in groningen my whole live, and I just love it. Never want to leave. Yes, for a copple of years maybe, but I will always return.
Great clubs, bars and interesting people. The capital of Rock ‘n Roll, if you ask me…

I’ve lived here for all my life. It’s nice.
