hosted in spaces that care about their crowd.
spaces that originated in Rotterdam, and give every hangout its own character.
we started this because we missed it ourselves.
a city with so many people, and no low-key way to meet them. not through bars where everyone already knows each other. not by swiping through ‘friendship apps’, not by forcing yourself in ‘coffee with strangers’.
we wanted a room full of familiar people, where you just walk in, every month, and the obsession does the rest.
the people behind it.
we’re julie & matthijs.
we believe the most extraordinary thing about obsession is that somewhere, someone shares it.
follow yours without apology, without restraint. and find the ones who understand.
hyped to meet you.
follow shared obsessions as it grows.
once a quarter, we share what we've built, what surprised us, and what's next. plus invites to new hangouts when they're ready.
