Writers Unblocked!
Theme: Changing Seasons

Do you ever experience writer’s block? Would you like to share your work with fellow writers? Could you use some feedback from a group of peers? Then this event is for you!

Come and join us at Writers Unblocked, on the 25th of March at 19h00 at the American Book Center in The Hague.

How does it work? Every alternate month, we meet to share a story, poem or whatever content we have created. There will be a general theme which is made known in advance. Each writer will have an opportunity to read his or her work for up to five minutes after which there will be a chance to receive a maximum of two inputs of constructive feedback from the other participants. As like minded writers, the aim of this will be to encourage growth, voice and communal learning.

As we say goodbye to the chill of winter and welcome the warmer days, we thought it would be a great time to talk about change. Hence the theme for this upcoming session is:Changing Seasons.

So, bring your voice and your words. Bring your friends and your charm. At Writers Unblocked, we will engage and release our inner writing voice. Come, listen and be heard!

This event is hosted by Tamkara Adun from Naija Expat in Holland & Catarina Queiroz fromCraftieMum

The cost is 3 euros, paid upon entrance.

Proceeds will go towards the rental of the venue.

For an expat moving to the Netherlands, getting the right direction is very important. It's important that one knows which steps and direction to take. Linda is an exceptionally talent counselor, her advice has helped me land a job within a week of coming to the Netherlands. I am grateful for her mentoring and look forward to a great working relationship in the future.

Dr. Hrishiraj S | Clinical Research & Affairs Manager

Together Abroad provided expert advice on personal branding including developing a top-notch, market-aware CV, highly tailored job applications, and approach strategies with potential employers in the Netherlands. Furthermore, I found them be highly knowledgeable in key related fields such as recruitment strategy, immigration law, contracts, labor agreements, and (un)employment benefits. I would recommend Together Abroad to anyone who needs professional help with transitioning to a new career.

A. Aboufirass | Structural Engeer

Linda is a big mind. She thinks about things that the rest normally overlook. The insight she has about the dutch job market can only be achieved through years of experience and persistence.

Her business savvy is complemented by her mastery of understanding the client's needs and requirements. For my career I could say, she was the “Mary Poppins”, who guided me through thick and thin and helped me to land a career in the Netherlands

S. Bhattacharjee | FP&A Manager

If you are going to enlist the services of a "Career Coach" look no further. The only person you want in your corner is Linda van Orsouw. As an expat, you absolutely want to work with a highly skilled and knowledgeable professional who knows their way around the Dutch career/employment/job market. Linda assisted me in writing and positioning my CV, helped me organize and prioritize my list of opportunities, coached me through mock interviews and was there when I got offered a senior position only 2 months later. When asked I will only refer to Linda and "Togetherabroad".
