Leiden heavy metal bands!

21 Upvotes

Hi all,

We're a melodic metal band here in Leiden looking to connect with other bands! We have a polished set of 10 original songs, and we're starting to look at booking gigs. We'd like to connect with other local bands interested in playing shows together, as it'll be easier to approach venues with a group of bands versus just by ourselves.

You can check out music here - https://www.youtube.com/@intothebreachofficial

If you or someone you know plays in a local metal band, please reach out and let's work together!

Looking for a local to show me around Leiden this Saturday/Sunday — dinner is on me!

Hi everyone!

I’ll be visiting Leiden by myself this Saturday/Sunday and thought it would be much more fun to explore the city with someone who actually lives there.

I’m a German guy in my early 30s, an English teacher, and generally an easy-going and curious traveller. I’d love to meet a friendly local, preferably around my age—late 20s to late 30s—who would enjoy showing me some of their favourite places in Leiden. Your gender doesn’t matter at all.

I’m not expecting a professional tour or a strict itinerary. I’m mainly looking for good company, a relaxed walk around the city, some interesting conversation, and perhaps a few places I probably wouldn’t discover on my own.

As a thank-you, I’d be happy to take you out for dinner afterwards.

We can meet somewhere public in the city centre and see how we get along. IÄll be staying at a hotel close to the main station. Feel free to send me a message with a little bit about yourself!

Wandelmaatje

11 Upvotes

Ik (f29) ben op zoek naar een wandelmaatje doordeweeks in de avonden voor bijvoorbeeld een rondje Singelpark. Ik kom zelf uit Leiden (geboren en getogen!!) en het lijkt me leuk om te wandelen met iemand om Leiden te leren laten kennen maar ook met Leidenaren zelf haha!

Ik heb brede interesses en ben een sociaal persoon. Iemand interesse?
