Hi all,
I've been away from the website for more than 7 years.
Suddenly I'm back, and I see there are not too may events in this forum like it used to be in the past.
This forum was full of events like "veggie potluck", "thanksgiving dinner", "summer picnic", "movie night", "book swap", "Australia day", etc....
We used to organize amazing meetings with people from everywhere. I am not talking about a night-out in a bar. I am talking about warmer events at somebody's place with a real cultural exchange between locals and expats, where chattings and fun was the main goal instead of going to a noisy public place for a drink (which is also valid, but a totally different idea).
Personally, as a vegetarian, I really miss the veggie potlucks. We organized great dinner parties where everyone brought a home made dish to share with the others. That was a fantastic opportunity to meet new people, to learn new recipes, to talk about anything, to make friends.
This events help a lot to find conversation partners, biking partners, rollerblade partners, and any kind of partners you can thing about hehe. Music, movies, philosophy, any interest can be covered and shared.
Something simple like a Sunday or Saturday afternoon picnic in a park can work as an initial meeting to get to know each other and from there we can see if something else comes up. Or if someone wants to host that will be great also.
Is there anybody else missing these type of events or someone interested in coming back to these activities?
Cheers.
