Meeting URL


PLEASE REGISTER HERE if you want to be there!!


his is a first attempt to do this in Antwerp, maybe even Belgium.

We are trying to get some people together via CouchSurfing and Polyglot.

The attempt is to have a ( @ first ) a monthly meeting for people to learn languages.

Are you a native Spanish speaker and you want to learn dutch ?

Or are you a native dutch speaker who wants to learn French ?

Let us come together and learn from each other, its the best way to learn other languages.

The first attempt is going to be the bar ' 't Oerwoud ' @ the corner from Ernest Van Dijckkaai and Suikerrui.

Its a well known bar, beer is cheap and is not for from Groenplaats for connection Metro/Tram/Bus So let come together around 20h on the 15 of July and let's see if this works.

Are you going to join us and make this a new and super cool event in this city ?

My number 0496/657.941

Map?

PLEASE REGISTER HERE if you want to be there!!

And not making more confusion, this is for learning a language.If you want to learn French, Dutch, English, German, ....... you can.Where traying to mix the native speakers with the non-native (students -)And try to learn a language that way.It's in a bar because its easy and there is a lot of room.The all so will reserve a couple of table for us. Its a nice bar with good atmosphere.And yes there is beer (because it's a bar), but you not forcet to drink beer.It's not the mean reson.Where here for language and hope you will like it.ThanksBart

Hi,

I have registered, but am not sure I can make it though!  Just want to make sure that for any future events I am still in the loop as it is a very good initiative!

hello,

I'm just a bit confused. Or I might have misread or misunderstood. What about the native french speakers who want to learn either dutch, english or spanish? I guess everyone's welcome though I just wanted to  clear this out  before buying a return ticket to Antwerp  :). And last question,  would there be any meetings in Brussels?

thank you anyway for your answer and I'm looking forward to seeing you all.

hola a todos,

I'm from Antwerp, learning Spanish. I would've liked to come, but I'll still be in Sweden on the 15th. Qué pena.

I hope it'll be a big hit and the first of many to come. So have fun! (with or without the beer)

Montse,

the bar they propose, is the same one I took you yesterday :-)

Espero que paséis un buen tiempo todos y que encuentres más personas con quienes puedas hablar el español. Nos citamos. hasta la próxima.

Good initiative. I registered and if all goes well with work I will actually appear :) You are not forced to drink beer, I am also a Belgian heretic not drinking beer :)

Hi

Is this just for peole speaking spanish, to learn dutch .. or speaking dutch to learn French? or was it only an example?

Moreover, is it just for people who appreciate beer...? :) i don't, maybe some  others too.

Great idee I think!

Unfortunately, It won't be possible I be there on this date...
Carry on with this kind of projects! It is formidable we can  verily exchange in many languages in Belgium.
I hope it'll work.
Compliments. Gabriel.

Hi Bart, wished I wasn't travelling further East and could attend the first one. Have fun, and I'll join you for one of the subsequent meetings! Great to see new members take initiatives! Tot ziens.

Hey there, The project is to get to one meeting every month. So that we have a fixkt place and date. So we can meet up and speak with each others. But will try to do the first one and see !

Hi everyone,

I think it's a great idea to try this. I can understand the problem for the youth, though.
I'm from Boom (below Antwerp city) and don't have a bus after 8pm but since last year, lucky for me, I own  my very first car.

Unfortunately, i can't make it myself on the proposed date because i'm leaving on holiday.

If there's a change of date, let me know and I'll try to clear my calendar to be there.

By the way, my mothertongue is Dutch, but I also speak French, English, German and Spanish. I also have a basic knowledge of Italian.
My goal is to keep using the languages and to learn as many new languages as possible.

I hope you have a good 1st meeting !

Kjell

Hey!

eerst en vooral sorry dat ik niet in het Engels schreef.. hehe, ik wist het namelijk niet juist xD.

Ik begrijp het wel hoor.  Ik zit er helemaal niet mee in.  Ook omdat het dinsdag is en dat er mensen zijn die 's middags dan moeten werken..  Zo een picnic in de middag zie ik wel zitten :D

To someone who is going and is reading this comment:  Enjoy it! And ofcourse, take loads of photos!

grtz!

Frodo

Hallo Nancy en Frodo,

Wel, ik had het in het Engels geschreven zodanig niet-nedrlandstalige dit zouden kunnen lezen.

Nancy, ik heb niet gehoord via mijn gsm. Sorry dat je mij niet kon bereiken. Dit is de allereerste keer dat ik dit doe, dus moet ik het allemaal leren. Ik denk dat we gewoon samen komen en zien wie er wat wil leren. Die gaan samen zitten, ne babbel doen en zo iets bij leren ? Dat was mijn idee ? mijn nummer is steeds 0496/657.941

Frodo, sorry hoor ! Maar deze datum komt mij goed uit, weet wel dat voor sommige dus niet is. Begrijp je (lichte) frustratie, maar moet dit combineren ook met de mensen van CouchSurfing. Zodanig dat dit meestal s'avonds valt. Het is mogelijk dat we wel eens een meeting (picnic-meeting)doen op een zonnige namiddag.

Maar ik wil eerst eens zien of dat deze natuurlijk lukt ! -)

Toch al bedankt voor de intresse !

Bart

Hallo Bart,

Ik heb geprobeerd u te bereiken op het GSM-nummer maar kreeg geen aansluiting. Ik ben nederlandstalig maar heb net 6 jaar avondles Spaans achter de rug. Ik zou graag wat meer kunnen spreken met spaanstalige mensen en hen natuulijk ook wat Nederlands bijbrengen natuurlijk. Is dit ook mogelijk op de meetings en hoe verlopen deze meetings?

groetjes

Nancy

Hey (geen idee of ik het nu in het engels of in het nederlands moet zeggen..)

Ik ben 16 en ik woon in België.  Namelijk in Limburg.  Ik zou ontzettend graag willen gaan, maar omdat het redelijk laat is kan ik niet gaan.  Het is nogal onverantwoord om een meisje van 16 jaar in de avond naar huis te laten gaan als die in de uithoeken van België woont.  Waarom zou deze meeting niet gewoon in de namiddag kunnen?  's Avonds is ook fijn natuurlijk.  En dat is ook geen probleem voor mensen die ouder zijn en niet met het openbaar vervoer moeten ofzo. Maar ehm, denk eens aan de jongeren? xD Het zijn er misschien niet veel, en misschien ben ik ook wel de allerjongste.  Maar toch vind ik dat er rekening mee moet gehouden worden. 

Allez, dat wou ik even kwijt xD

grtz, frodo
