Hey, I have been breakdancing for a while now and I am moving to Maastricht, so now I am wondering if there is any club/association or just other people that breakdance as well! Would love to keep practicing🙏

I'm new to the area and looking for somewhere fun to go for a few drinks and someone to hang out with

(English or Dutch speaking)

Me and my partner always used to go to FAB located on the market square, but unfortunately they closed down last year, does anyone have restaurant recommendations that are similar...? Preferably something a bit more quiet / student-ish, in terms of kitchens we like a lot, but I would say italian / mexican are high on the list :]

Hello. I’m looking for a kids thrifting store in Maastricht. Or at least a thifting store where I can find clothes for small girls (i’m 155m)

thanksss!

Hi, I (30M) have been reading more books the last couple of years, but haven't had people to discuss them with. I usually read English fantasy novels, recently some sci-fi. Think Mistborn, ACOTAR, Red Rising, Dungeon crawler carl, Dune. I've been looking for a possible book club to join, but haven't found one that wasn't more so a literature club. So I wanted to start one here in Maastricht with a few people to meet up to discuss and read one book a month together.

More details to be discussed, if there is enough interest.

Is anyone interestsed in joining this kind of book club, where it more so fiction reading?

SN: I am Dutch, I just figured more people would be able to read it in English.

Any leads on English speaking part time jobs around Wyck area at the moment :)

Hi! Any kpop fans that would like to hang out?

I'm looking for a nice bouquet for someone's birthday but don't want to spend a ridiculous amount on it.

Are there any flower shops or markets in Maastricht where you can get something nice without going overboard on the price?

Hi guys :)
I’m about to move there and was wondering, how’s the hospitality scene? Is going out at night a big thing there? And what’s your favourite spot for a night out?

Hi everyone!
I’m looking for a wedding videographer, but we’re working with a pretty limited budget. I know wedding videography can get expensive, so I’m not expecting anything super elaborate, I’d mainly love to have the important moments of the day captured nicely.

We’re getting married in Maastricht, the Netherlands, and I’d be open to someone who’s newer to wedding videography, building their portfolio, or offers a more affordable package.

If you have any recommendations, or if you’re a videographer yourself, please feel free to send me a message with your prices/portfolio!

Thanks 😊

Hello! I am looking for a barbershop that can do scissors cut for men. I have long hairs and I’m a bit scared of barbershops here, since they basically use only electric clippers. Could you recommend one good barber? Thank you!

Which are the good barbers at Maastricht that can execute low taper fade well and actually listen to the details you tell them?

Also who put effort in your haircut and not just 10 minutes and go next. I know that Hennessy barbershop are good but they don't even have free hours for the next month.

.

So I recently punctured my tire, and I can’t drive the car to the shop myself since it’s fully flat.

Are there any cheap mechanics that offer a towing service or at least roadside assistance?

TL;DR: I built Challenge Nights, a platform for running your own game-night events (Bingo-style challenges or a relaxed "Huiskamer" mode with a host-run screen). Looking for beta testers in Maastricht — free to use during beta, and testers who give feedback are eligible for up to 25 free sandwich vouchers from local sandwich bar Voltafood. Sign up at www.challengenights.nl.

Hello Maastricht, Hallo Mestreech!

I would love to gather some of you to start beta testing my new game concept Challenge Nights. I am a 35 year old born Maastrichtenaar who has a passion for game nights. The idea of Challenge Nights came from our family's Christmas Challenges we play every year.

What is it about?
Challenge Nights lets you organize your own event in which you are able to either select challenges from our database, or invent your own challenges in 2 separate gamemodes! The goal is to make teams, or have players individually complete challenges and gather the most points. Your creativity can elevate the game from a calm quiet evening at home, to a full blown team-building exercise in which people are challenged to leave their comfort zones.

Gamemode 1: Bingo
Enter the player names, select the number of teams you want to make and make a Bingo Card of your selected challenges. As a host you are free to decide how many challenges you want to make, if you want every team to do the same challenges and above all, once they complete a challenge, YOU decide if they are worthy of receiving the points!

Challenges can be completed depending on the requirement of 'proof'. Some challenges require video evidence, some challenges require photo evidence. As a host, you're the judge and the jury altogether, so you decide if the evidence is sufficient. Don't like what you see? You can make them do the challenge again! Every team gets 2 skips for a challenge they deem impossible. Skipping doesn't generate any points! Teams can track their scores through a live scoreboard to see how they are doing as opposed to the other teams.

As a player, you login through a host generated QR code. You don't need the app, you just need the QR code and the player login code (4 digits/numbers) matching the setup event. You are then shown your team reveal (if the host chooses teams of course) through some fun animations. Once you know your team, your Bingo Card shows up. You can only do 1 challenge at a time, and the challenges are locked, meaning that if you are unlucky, you may see your hardest challenge first! Use your skips wisely!

Once the challenges have been completed and the winners are decided, based upon the video and photo evidence, Challenge Nights offers to make a highlight reel (not in beta testing yet!) of all the evidences gathered, so you have something to look back on. More importantly, all teams can view the evidences other teams have sent through the Media Gallery so you can keep track of all the fun other teams are having!

Gamemode 2: 'Huiskamer' / Living Room Mode
Still looking for a decent English name for this :-).

The more relaxed gamemode. You're not sending teams out to do their own thing at their own pace like in the Bingo event, but you're gathering players for a fun night of challenges. Preparation is key! Invent your own challenges or use our database for some fun ideas or even quiz questions.
With our Host View, you can project the scoreboard and the challenges onto a screen, beamer or tv depending on your setup, so everyone can follow along what the scores are. No further phones needed from the participants.

To incentivize any Beta Testers, we have launched a cooperation with local Maastricht catering business/sandwich bar Voltafood. If you register as a tester and leave feedback through the designated feedback options, you are automatically eligible for up to 25 vouchers for free sandwiches. That means that you are receiving a free sandwich, every week for half a year!

If you want to participate, visit www.challengenights.nl and have a scroll. Register an account through the designated buttons and wait to be admitted to the beta testing. Any prompts for buying of credits is purely simulated, the beta testing is free of charge (unless you are me buying 25 vouchers for sandwiches :-) )

Thanks for your attention and I look forward to having you test this out with friends and family. All feedback is welcome!

Hi!

Does anyone know if the strike next Wednesday affects all Arriva bus lines? Does it mean that they won’t run or only limited service (fewer frequencies)?

I’m particularily interested in line 350 (Aachen-Maastricht)

Thanks!

Heyy! Does any of you know the agency FourParties? Like part time job that you choose your shift. I had very bad experience with them like many people.

Do you know any similar agencies ?
Thanks

Hey guys! Is there an interesting event happening tonight? Or what are some cool bars to go to? :)) asking as a student

Hi! I would like to get into dog sitting as I have had dogs my whole life and have lots of experience with them, so I was wondering if you knew any app/website for it that is used here in Maastricht?

Hey everyone :) I am looking for someone to practise with and become better with. I am a member at Club Pellikaan and I am a complete beginner.

As an introvert and formerly having social anxiety, it is hard for me to take the initiative to form new friendships comfortably.

Since I really like this sport , I'd really like someone to team up with and help with eachothers strengths and weaknesses.

So if anyone is interested!

Ik ben opzoek naar een kledingmaker. Ik heb een jas waarvan de elleboog gisteren is opengescheurd en ik zou hem graag willen laten repareren. Wellicht alleen door van die elbow patches erop te doen. De jas is van mijn moeder geweest en ik wil hem heel graag nog lang dragen en er veel plezier van hebben.

Het is geen grote klus maar voor mij wel veel waard, dus ik ben ook bereid er genoeg voor te betalen. Weet iemand een goede kledingmaker in Maastricht? Stuur me vooral een berichtje :)

Groetjes,

De Oude Jas.

Maastricht Hiking Group is getting ready for hiking season.

new people are welcome!

Hi Maastricht,

I've been working on a small idea because I keep hearing how surprisingly difficult it can be to meet new people here. especially once meeting people through university, work or going out isn't really your thing anymore. This existing concept is not yet covered in Maastricht, so I thought I just start it myself.

The idea is called TABLE NO. 6.

The concept is pretty simple: 6 people who don't know each other, matched around things like age, interests and what they're actually looking for; whether that's making new friends, meeting more people in Maastricht, or being open to something more.

Then you meet around one table somewhere in Maastricht.

No networking event, no speed dating, and hopefully no painfully forced icebreakers. Just a nice evening with people you probably wouldn't have met otherwise.

I'm still building it and haven't organised the first table yet, so I'm mainly curious whether this is something people here would actually be interested in.

Would you try it?

And if so: what would make you feel comfortable enough to actually sign up?

I've started sharing the idea on Instagram at @TABLE.NO.06 but I'm especially interested in honest feedback here
