Maarten Andriessen

Introduction:

"My name is Maarten and I am both Dutch and the organizer of this group. I started this group because most Dutch events are either up in Los Angeles, or down in San Diego, and I got the feeling there are plenty of Dutch living somewhere in between!"

"Fluent in Dutch, I was born there. Favorite Dutch word? Vreemdelingendienst. Watch Julia pronounce that!"

What type of gatherings, activities or events do you hope to participate in?
