At Wijkcoop you can see creative entrepreneurs in action, you can learn about initiatives and projects from the upcoming neighbourhood Rotterdam Noord and you can even attend a flea market, organised by my friend, Sarah. The event takes place every Sunday and has the intention to form a community of people who are passionate about recycling clothes, art and plants, if that’s your thing.

Klein Rotterdam is an affordable and fun coworking space where creatives meet under one roof to inspire each other and, why not, have lunch together after some focused work.

The place breathes with fresh ideas, attracts interesting people and hosts fun events.

Even if you are not a local, you will feel welcome here and there will always be someone available to show you around and tell you about the different ongoing projects with due enthusiasm. You can ask for Jan Lemmers or Peter Reckers.

The building itself is an eye-catcher, with its white and blue patterned walls. You will recognize it also by the big Zoho letters on the rooftop, at the main entrance.
