About When in Utrecht

We hope to inspire you – locals, expats, and travelers alike – who are just as keen and passionate about Utrecht as we are. You can see When in Utrecht as our personal pocketbook, or diary, where we will keep notes and tabs on everything that is happening in our beautiful city. From food to places to shop, drink and sleep. And grab a coffee, we won’t forget that.
