Get matched with a NOAH Friend<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Are you looking for new friendships to expand your social circle? Then you’ve come to the right place at NOAH! With our NOAH Friendship Platform we want to create a place in Maastricht where you can meet new friends.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you are looking for more personal contact, register for NOAH Friend where we match you 1 on 1 with someone with whom you share the same hobby or interest. Such as exercising together, cooking together or going out. Someone you can laugh with and have fun with.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/6″][vc_single_image image=”2877″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][vc_single_image image=”3423″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][vc_single_image image=”5647″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][vc_single_image image=”2879″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][vc_single_image image=”5650″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1708430762325{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n

<\/h2>\n

How does it work?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

When you register for NOAH friend, we will contact you within two weeks to schedule an introductory meeting<\/strong> with you. Our team would like to get to know you. We are curious about who you are and what motivates you to participate in NOAH. Together we talk about your hobbies and interests and get to know each other. After this conversation, we will see whether someone from our registration list fits your profile. Finding a NOAH match<\/strong> regularly takes four to ten weeks. If we have found a NOAH match, we will contact you immediately to plan a NOAH meeting<\/strong> together. During this meeting we will introduce you to each other and make some practical agreements together so that you can immediately start your NOAH friendship.<\/p>\n

As a NOAH team we give you a push and, as a NOAH match, it is up to you to shape this new friendship<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1708431082303{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n
