What an evening looks like

18:30. People arrive, order something, and sit wherever there is space. Nobody stands at the door checking names. If you booked, your name is on the list and that is it.

By 19:00 the room is a set of small conversations. Tables of four or five, people moving between them, someone arriving late and joining the nearest table. There is no speaker, no presentation and no round of introductions.

21:00. The official end. Half the room stays longer, the other half leaves with a phone number or a plan for the weekend.

If it is your first time

Come alone. Most people at their first meetup do, and it stops being awkward in about four minutes. Look for the tables with mixed languages and sit down. If you cannot find us, write in the WhatsApp group and someone will wave you over.

English is the default language. There are French evenings too, and Romanian is spoken at every table, but nobody is tested on it.

The photos

All photos are from our own meetups. If you appear in one and want it removed, write to the organizer and it comes down.
