What we’re about
This meetup is intended to practice Italian. The conversation will be in Italian so this Meetup is tailored to advance level speakers. Questo meetup e' per tutti coloro che vogliono fare pratica in Italiano. Durante i nostri meeting quindi la maggior parte delle conversazioni saranno in Italiano.
I soci del nostri gruppo quindi dovrebbero essere in grado di fare conversazione in Italiano. Non serve un Italiano perfetto, basta cavarsela un po' con la conversazione.
This Meetup is about Italian Language and Italian Culture

ABOUT THE EVENT
Ciao Amici!
Let us speak Italian and grab a drink or two. All levels welcome!
Ci vediamo!
As you all remember well, this event used to bring out hundreds of people every week. However, it was discontinued last year for obvious reasons and we couldn't gather that many people now, because of restrictions. Hence, we are downsizing and caping the number of attendees. We have super limited spots and advance ticket purchase is required.
During this unprecedented time we were in lockdowns/confinements and we were not able to stay in touch with our old friends (as we used to) and couldn't make new ones. That is why we came up with the FRIENDING part. We have a lot in common :- We speak different languages, we represent different cultures, we lived/travelled to different countries, we appreciate different accents, we are internationally minded.
METRO & PARKING INFO
The closest metro station is Woodley Park/Adams Morgan.
Street Parking might be a challenge. But if you plan to drive, try your luck on Champlain Street. Otherwise, there is a parking garage around. However, the event involves drinking and we highly recommend a shared ride or taxi service. DRINK RESPONSIBLY.
