Location
The location depends on the date and will be either in Amsterdam-South (De Roos, PC Hooftstraat 183) or in Amsterdam-Center (Molinos de Viento, Utrechtsedwarsstraat 13-I). Our informative get-togethers can be held on other locations like an international school or international company on request.
The Roos is situated next to the Vondelpark. It was built in 1873 and in 1897 it was bought by Sylvain Kahn and Sally Berg, the co-owners of Hirsch&Cie. Hirsch&Cie was a very famous international fashion house last century, with clients as the Dutch queens Wilhelmina and Juliana and the dancer Mata Hari.
Nowadays the Roos is a centre where a lot of activities are organized like yoga, meditation, music, art and the more4expats get-togethers.
Good to know when you are in the neighborhood, De Roos has a very nice terrace and tea house with all kind of biological fresh products and is open all days. From 8:00 to 10:00 pm (Monday till Friday) and from 8:00 to 5:30 pm (Saturdays and Sundays).
The other location is a monumental building at Utrechtsedwarsstraat 13-I; the Spanish cultural centre ‘’Molinos de Viento’’. This building is situated in a very nice part of Amsterdam. A few minutes walk from the Utrechtsestraat; one of the nicest streets of Amsterdam. Not only because of the view over the canals, but also because of the mixture of all different kinds of shops and restaurants.
Utrechtstedwarsstraat 13-I is also a few minutes walk from Amstelveld, a beautiful square with a small church and bistro with terrace, surrounded by canals and canal houses, with a flower market on Mondays.
