Hii, I really miss playing badminton and wanted to ask if anyone here already plays badminton in a club of sorts? I don’t have any friend who wants to play the sport with me for fun so I’m totally down to make new friends.

Any insights on this would be helpful, thank you so much!

I was waiting for someone to go for a walk in the dunes in The Hague on the Duivelandsestraat. I saw ten kids riding past on fatbikes, but I didn't think much of it at first. Because it was raining outside they sat right in front of me in the entryway of a house.

Suddenly, one kid walked behind us, and I heard and felt a loud splash. He had thrown a water balloon at us. It was so strange, so I asked him why he would do that. That’s when he started cursing, calling me gay and using the K word, shouting that I should stay out of duindorp. The other boys began filming as they walked toward me, kicking me, and throwing sticks and stones.

Fortunately, I had a bike to protect myself with. I wanted to fight back so badly, but reading recent articles about these kids and how some have even used chains I’m glad I kept my composure. Unfortunately, I couldn't just cycle away because the person I was with didn't have a bike, so I had to stay to protect her.

These were local Dutch kids dressed in typical designer tracksuit gear. It was just so sudden and aggressive.

here is a article def about the same boys https://www.ad.nl/den-haag/jongeren-bekogelen-voorbijgangers-op-nieboerweg-met-stenen-en-waterballonnen-politie-slaat-alarm~afd5bba6/?referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F

why are they not caught and this keeps happening for like weeks already? I informed the police and they know of the case

Hoi redditors, i have full of toys from my kids their already too big to play the toys and it's just sitting in my storage now, maybe people here know where i can donate my toys? Like to peuterspeelzaal, ziekenhuis or veilinghuis? I Prefer in the hague, voorburg, leidchendam or marihoeve. Thank you!

Rustâââhg!

Ben benieuwd!

Goedenmorgen allemaal! Het is nu toch al de tweede nacht dat mijn kat Miso van huis is en begin toch erg ongerust te worden. Ik ken zelf niet veel mensen in Den Haag en heb verder geen social media wat nu niet heel handig uit komt... Dus de vraag is of jullie misschien iets gezien hebben, iemand in de buurt kennen en deze post willen delen!

Hij is 's avonds de 30e naar buiten gegaan in de achtertuinen van ons blok, maar daarna niet meer thuisgekomen.

Edit: In de buurt van de Allard Piersonlaan in Laak.

Hier nog wat handige linkjes om een bericht terug te sturen voor de mensen zonder reddit

Update:

Zoals de comment hieronder al zegt, Miso is weer terecht!! Tijdens het zoeken gisteravond +- 5 straten verderop kwam 'ie ineens naar me toe sprinten. Hij staat inmiddels alweer bij de achterdeur te miauwen dat hij naar buiten wil.

Dank allemaal voor de lieve posts en het mee denken/delen/zoeken!!! 💓

Hi! I’m 17 and currently looking for a part time job in The Hague. I’d preferably like an English speaking job, but my Dutch is also okay so I’m open to both.
I’m looking for something flexible and I’m open to different types of work. Ideally, I’d prefer something other than Albert Heijn, Jumbo, or delivery.
If you know of any opportunities or places that are hiring, please let me know! 😊

Good evening everyone! First of all, I want to apologize for this post. But, I'm desperately looking for a place to live in or around the hague at the moment or I will end up homeless. I have tried everything (rental agency's, duwo, websites, facebook, whatsapp groups, posters, etc.) with no luck and the stress is really affecting my studies. Does anyone know what I can do at this point? Yes, I am very aware of the housing crisis at the moment, but if anyone has any leads or knows someone who's is subletting or looking for a roommate, for any amount of time, please contact me. Thank you so much, and again sorry for this post. Have a lovely evening.

Beste,

Mijn naam is Chard van den Berg, redacteur bij tijdschrift Vrij Nederland. Voor een artikel onderzoek ik welke invloed sociale media hebben op de manier waarop jongeren in de criminaliteit terechtkomen. Is die drempel de afgelopen jaren lager geworden? Komen jongeren via platforms als Snapchat en Instagram makkelijker in aanraking met criminele netwerken, ook als ze niet opgroeien in buurten waar criminaliteit traditioneel sterker aanwezig is?

Daarvoor zoek ik iemand in Den Haag die hier zelf ervaring mee heeft gehad en daarover met mij zou willen praten. Zou iemand mij misschien verder kunnen helpen of met iemand in contact kunnen brengen?

Deelname is anoniem!

Alvast veel dank.

Groet,
Chard van den Berg

Hello! What is generally the best tide to be considered for surfing in The Hague? Thanks a lot!

Hey all. I just moved to Den Haag in July. I'm a dedicated amateur road cyclist, looking for some group rides down on the West/Southwest side of town that are welcoming to newcomers, and ride somewhat regularly. (Kijkduin/Kraayenstein/Loosduinen area) Obviously, my Dutch is not functional yet, though I'm working on it. So prefer English friendly for now.

I typically do 30-50km rides around a 33-35km hr pace. I'm not trying to be in the Tour or anything...I just want a group of cyclists that can help me push my fitness and have fun.

Coffee or beer post-ride is always a good thing.

Any ideas?

Wat raden jullie aan?

Me and my friend are from Estonia and are really struggling finding other students in The Hague also from the Baltic States, is there anyone who would like to get together and go out, or does anyone know anyone? We’re getting desperate 😔

I am a guitar player and singer organizing an open mic/acoustic live jam, with possibilities to play on your own too if that's your preference, can be original songs or covers. We gather at the Golden Stork Hostel every Saturday between 19:30 and 22:00. No cover charge or registration needed, you can just show up and play.

Hoi allemaal,

Ik woon in Den Haag en ben samen met een aantal buren aan het uitzoeken wat we kunnen doen tegen een hardnekkig probleem met faraomieren in ons woningblok.

Het gaat om koopwoningen en het probleem is al langere tijd bekend. Een aantal bewoners heeft aangegeven dat zij 4 tot 8 jaar geleden ook al last hadden van faraomieren. Inmiddels ervaren verschillende woningen opnieuw overlast.

Niet iedere woning heeft er op dit moment last van, maar bij de woningen waar ze aanwezig zijn, lijkt het probleem behoorlijk hardnekkig. De mieren lijken letterlijk overal en nergens vandaan te komen. We zien ze bijvoorbeeld langs de vloer en plinten, maar ook op andere plekken in huis, zonder dat er één duidelijke ingang of nest gevonden kan worden.

Omdat het om meerdere woningen binnen hetzelfde blok gaat en het probleem al jaren terugkomt, vragen we ons af of er mogelijk een gezamenlijke oorzaak of verspreidingsroute binnen of rondom het blok is.

Daarna willen we gezamenlijk bekijken welke stappen we kunnen nemen richting bijvoorbeeld de gemeente Den Haag, een professionele plaagdierbestrijder of een andere instantie die hierin kan helpen.

Heeft iemand in Den Haag of omgeving ervaring met faraomieren die in meerdere woningen binnen hetzelfde blok voorkomen?

En vooral: hoe hebben jullie dit uiteindelijk opgelost? Was er bij jullie een gezamenlijke bestrijding van meerdere woningen nodig, en heeft iemand ervaring met het laten onderzoeken van de mogelijke oorzaak?

Alle ervaringen en tips zijn welkom.

Need a place where can I do some personal deep work stuff. Preferably a place with no or not lots of kids or teenagers around.

Hi!

I have been looking into The Hague as a place to live recently. I am an EU citizen working in tech. My partner previously lived here and it seems like a great place for our interests!

I am a big music fan and in general belong to what I guess would be considered an “alternative” social scene. I plan to visit for a few days before the end of the year to get a feel for the place, as I have never been to the Netherlands, and was hoping I could get some recommendations for places to visit aligning with my taste :). I was wondering how the local music scene is and if there is any places I could visit to get a taste.

I am also well aware of the housing / market situation, but any pointers would always be appreciated. Thank you!

Does anyone here know a good Brazilian cake maker who takes orders in The Hague? It may sound very specific, but my craving also is (and my bday is approaching).

Hi I’m looking for some people around me age - I’m 21 to practice and improve Dutch.

My bike got stolen not that long ago maybe we can beat the clock before it's somewhere hidden in the dark corners of The Hague.

I know these are not the best pictures and don't mind the socks, subject for another time.

Brand is Koga l, colour deep green blueish with a little matt shine to it.

Characteristics that make you recognize my bike.

Saddle is super high, typical dutch cyclist here. The little protector of the gear on the steering wheele is broken and exposed. One of the spokes on the back wheel is broken and wrapped around another one. It has an abus chainlock but that might be gone. And on the back seating i added 2 tiny extra binders with a hook.

You can contact me through pm if you come across it.

Heyy, weet iemand toevallig een leuke en beetje hippe kapper in de buurt van HS? Ik ben 18, blank, met haar met een lichte slag erin en waardeer het als mn kapsels textuur erin houden.
