Since I’m absolutely hopeless when it comes to braiding my own (caucasian) hair and my regular hairsalon is fully booked, I’m looking for a braiding salon or independent braider to fix me up with two Dutch braids (with added bundles) for a party next week.

Does anyone have tips in the Maastricht area?

Hello! Is there someone I could borrow a lab coat from for tomorrow? Mine got ruined, I bought one on Helix now but my practical is at 8:30 tomorrow 😭 Help will be remunerated. Thank you!

Hi guys this is a bit random but I sing and since moving to uni here in Maastricht for a non-music degree I’ve missed practicing and singing so much and can barely do it well since I live in a shared accommodation. Does anyone know any practice rooms to rent or that I can go to as a student in UM?

What the caption says, I accidentally got the wrong ticket or the website messed up but if anyone from Maastricht would like a ticket at a discount, would love to make sure it doesn’t go to waste!

We're thinking of moving from Amsterdam to Maastricht. My wife is from around Aachen and went to university in Maastricht. She'll be happy. I will as well.

Will be even happier if anyone can give any insight to the craic around MVV matches. Is it a good crowd? Are there other immigrants who go? My Dutch is ehhh with living in Amsterdam. Really want to intergrate there and I'm sure there will be more opportunities to learn. But I love live football and would like to use it to meet folks

Dag lezers!

Parijs, Rome en zelfs New York. Veel schoolreizen gaan naar "exotische" bestemmingen. Hiermee vallen altijd een groep leerlingen uit de boot door financiële redenen.

Wij hebben besloten om met 3 leerkrachten een groep van 15 leerlingen te begeleiden naar Maastricht, terwijl de andere 120 leerlingen in Italië zitten.

Onze missie is om deze leerlingen een goede tijd te geven aan een zeer schappelijke prijs. Zo rijden we met onze eigen auto's om geen bus(je) te moeten huren.

We spenderen donderdag, vrijdag en deels zaterdag in Maastricht.

We zijn op zoek naar betaalbare of zelfs gratis activiteiten: subtropisch zwembad, stadspark, escape-room, wandeling, …

Daarnaast zijn we ook op zoek naar een betaalbaar restaurant: Irish pub, pizzaria, …

Wat zouden jullie doen met een groep van 17-18 jarigen in Maastricht?

Bedankt voor de tips!

No matter the courier company, all of them deliver my parcels to Webshop Logistics Limburg Maastricht. Lockers are always full and other collection points allegedly don’t accept parcels. Not home? Straight to Webshop Logistics Limburg Maastricht.
For me it means going all across the city to collect a parcel and with limited collection windows, it’s not always feasible.
Is anyone in a similar situation?

Hi all,

I’m Robin and 32 years old, speaking English and German. I am looking for someone to practise Paddel and/or Tennis with.

As an introvert, I find it difficult to initiate new friendships with ease.

I would appreciate a partner to play with.

I am a member at Club Pellikaan and I am a complete beginner.

Looking forward to this!

Hi! I’m trying to decide between the social hub coworking subscription or ROOMS. Can anyone give me your personal input if you have been to any of them?

I’ve lived here for two years and I still can’t master this system. I don’t have space in my small studio to keep four bins (paper, pmd, residual and organic). Also, my bins keep stinking cause collecting waste once every two weeks is a very long time.
Pleaseeee help!!
How do you all sort your trash? What’s the best way to avoid this smelling problem? And don’t get me started on the flies that keep coming

Dit weekend naar Maastricht, wat mag ik niet missen?

Ik ga dit weekend een paar dagen naar Maastricht en ben benieuwd wat jullie zouden aanraden. Natuurlijk kan ik online wel wat dingen vinden, maar ik hoor liever van mensen die de stad zelf kennen.

Wat zijn volgens jullie leuke plekken om te bezoeken, goede restaurants of gezellige cafés? En zijn er nog dingen die je echt gedaan of gezien moet hebben als je er een weekend bent?

Next quiz is on Wednesday.

I'm a Msc student in Enschede doing an internship here in Maastricht. What are the requirements to get into a coffeeshop here in this city? In Enschede I only needed to show valid ID...

also just generally curious why so many explosions sound around the city all the time

Have you found my calendar? It looks like the one in the picture but just for 2026 with a pen in the ring-bind. I am pretty sure I lost it yesterday (10'th of October) most likely on the street marked red on the second photo but also likely on the orange path. Please let me know if you have it or know where it is! Thank you!

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to make a quick post to see if anyone here is going to the emo night at the muziekgieterij today! If youre just going alone or wanna meet more people just send me a dm! Hope to see you there!

Ik ben er een beetje vroeg bij maarrr ik hoor ieder jaar mensen over de kerstmarkt in Maastricht, maar ik vraag me af of het echt zo leuk is als iedereen zegt. Op foto's ziet het er natuurlijk supergezellig uit met alle lichtjes, kraampjes en het reuzenrad, maar ik ben benieuwd hoe het in het echt is.

Is het niet ontzettend druk en duur voor wat het uiteindelijk is? Ik twijfel om dit jaar te gaan, dus ik ben benieuwd naar eerlijke ervaringen.

Hallo everyone! Thank you again for the hairdresser recommendations in my previous post. I have another question:

I am considering bringing here to Maastricht my cat (he's a friendly 10 year old boy) from my hometown abroad. Do you have any recommendations for cat-sitting services or apps in Maastricht?

Hii! First time getting on reddit to see opinions on this but mostly asking for help :(

I'm an internarional first year bachelors student (F) in Maastricht Uni, who cannot get a job.

To give you some sort of context about my skills:

1. I speak Russian, Latvian, English perfectly and I understand easy German, can speak some, officially have A2 level.

2. I have an experience in being a gardening assistant, meaning, attending and helping with planting flower bushes, getting rid of weeds, watering, sweeping. UNFORTUNATELY, no catering, no customer service, no barista stuff. That really really puts me in a bad position because candidates with experience (at least 1 year) are preferable.

3. I attended summer school last year in a different university, gained skills in my field of study.

4. I volunteered back home in an educational event, I explained and essentially sold the service that helps getting students into European universities.

Rejected:

I really need just a bare minimum job, but I got rejected multiple and multiple times from Lidl, Albert Heijn. Additionally, Jumbo, Starbucks, some cafes as a server, etc, because "they found a better candidate for that position".

Why i can't get into other jobs:

Other jobs require speaking good Dutch. Others are too far by bike (no 1 hour drive, 35 min would be my desperate maximum). Some need 24h work minimum. I could do 18h max.

I understand i am not the best choice, but every other student has a problem with availability during weekdays and holidays, still get their jobs, so what am I doing wrong?

I need a genuine advice, because I have an unfortunate low set of skills for entry level jobs. Would really appreciate it! Maybe someone could also share their experience?

I am looking for a simple pedicure. No polish or anything wanted, I just like a professional to cut my toenails to prevent ingrowns.

Any recommendations for a good cheap pedicure?

Hoi allemaal!

Ik ben op zoek naar iemand in Maastricht of omgeving die voor mij een L-vormig bureaublad op maat kan maken. Het gaat alleen om het blad; het onderstel heb ik al.

Ik zoek dus iemand die ervaring heeft met houtbewerking/meubelbouw, of misschien kent iemand hier een goede meubelmaker of handige particulier die zoiets kan maken.

De exacte afmetingen, vorm en het gewenste materiaal kan ik uiteraard doorgeven. Het hoeft niet super luxe te zijn, vooral degelijk en netjes afgewerkt.

Kent iemand iemand, of doe je dit zelf? Stuur me gerust een berichtje!

Alvast bedankt

I was wondering if anyone knows of a place where I can take a passport photo (preferably an inexpensive one)? I need to do it as soon as possible

Hello all
