Language Exchange over a drink. We choose different venue every week. This time a cafe with the view of the sea in Corniche. Let's enjoy a bit of outdoor setting and coffee before it gets too warm. We will also share the sunset together. This is a free event and we welcome local and expats to come for a chat and some good company. Languages👂🏻💋: English, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese (and more depending on the attendees' languages) **Location: Coffee Beanery in Corniche** **Topics🗣: Name your favorite summer getaway** We have certified Chinese and English teachers here who also speak Spanish and Japanese. We are looking for Arabic-speakers or anyone who wishes to practice these languages or just to connect. Participants will be put in different tables based on number of people and langauge-pairs and swap places from time to time. Participants are responsible for paying for their orders. As customary to support local business, one order is a good practice. Please sign up for your attendance. RSVP is nessary to book the space. *PS. Order your drink and bring it upstairs to the spot overlooking the corniche. Look for a blonde Asian girl on arrival.*

Join us for a relaxed evening of games, fun, and great company during the week. ***While we are aware of the current situation in the region, life goes on, and sometimes the best thing we can do is support one another and continue building community.*** To keep things comfortable and safe, this event will be limited to a smaller group during this period. This gathering is open to locals and expats alike, perfect for meeting new friends while enjoying card games, chess, and other fun board games. The idea is simple: play, chat, and unwind together. 📍 **Location:** Adam Coffee Shop ⌚ **Time:** 7:30–9:30 PM 👥 **Vibe:** Chill, social, and lightly competitive (in a fun way!) 🎟 **Entrance Fee:** 10 QAR (cash only) ☕ **Minimum Order:** One drink or food item We’ll rotate between games and tables depending on the number of participants so everyone has a chance to meet and play with different people. Feel free to bring your own games to share! As the café kindly hosts us, we encourage everyone to support them by ordering at least one drink or food item. For those who prefer healthier choices, the café also offers sugar-free drinks and food options. **Note:** Based on previous experiences where some attendees did not place orders and misused shared resources, we have introduced a small entrance fee to help maintain a respectful and positive environment. The fee will also contribute to supporting the community, including providing food for stray cats. Come by, relax, and enjoy a friendly evening together.
