Zagreb language and culture exchange meetup. Chat in many languages, meet new people and plan adventures together. Hey everyone! 👋 As spring arrives in Zagreb and the city wakes up again, we’re keeping Thursdays social with **Small Friday International Zagreb** ([SFIZ.FUN](https://sites.google.com/view/smallfridayinternationalzagreb/)) a relaxed international meetup where locals, expats, Erasmus students and travellers gather to chat, exchange languages, share stories and plan the next adventure. Think of it as Zagreb’s global living room with lively conversations, and that moment when a random Thursday evening decides to surprise you. ✨ Whether you’ve just arrived in Zagreb, been here a while, or live around the corner, you’re very welcome. 📍 **When & Where** 📍 **The Beertija** Pavla Hatza 16, Zagreb 🕗 **Every other Thursday from 8PM** ✨ Free to join: simply grab a drink and support our host bar 🍺🎸 ✨ Open to everyone: all ages, backgrounds and language levels 💬 **What Happens at [SFIZ.FUN](https://sites.google.com/view/smallfridayinternationalzagreb/)**?

No formal structure, no pressure, just people meeting people. 🌸 **Why Join in Spring?** Spring is when Zagreb truly comes alive. Magnolia trees bloom across the city, café terraces fill with conversation, and longer sunny days invite people outdoors. Locals stroll through parks, cycle along the Sava, run around Jarun and Bundek lakes, or escape to the nearby Medvednica mountain for hikes and views above the city. At the same time, Zagreb’s cultural calendar blossoms with exhibitions, concerts, festivals and theatre performances, while markets like Dolac overflow with seasonal produce: asparagus, wild garlic, strawberries and fresh flavours of the season. It’s the perfect time to meet people and explore the city together. And many of those plans begin right here, at [SFIZ.FUN](https://sites.google.com/view/smallfridayinternationalzagreb/). 🌍 🍺 **Why The Beertija?** Because it’s more than a bar, it’s our headquarters. Expect: 🌿 leafy terrace vibes 🎸 rock-inspired atmosphere 🍺 excellent beers 🛋️ relaxed living-room energy 🚭 non-smoking indoor space It’s the kind of place where you pop in for one drink and suddenly realise the evening flew by. 💡 **First-Timer Tip** If it’s your first time: 👋 arrive early 🙂 smile and say hello 💬 jump into a conversation Everyone was new once and that’s how all starts. 🌍 **Join the Crew** [SFIZ.FUN](https://sites.google.com/view/smallfridayinternationalzagreb/) is a community built by the people who show up.

🇭🇷 U **Extreme Programmingu** koristimo **BDD** i **TDD** — prakse temeljene na automatiziranom testiranju. Svaki iole ozbiljniji softverski sustav zahtijeva više različitih vrsta testova. Na ovom razgovoru (više diskusiji nego predavanju) analizirat ćemo nekoliko varijanti različitih pristupa testiranju kako bismo bolje razumjeli njihove sličnosti i razlike. 🇬🇧 In **Extreme Programming**, we use **BDD** and **TDD** — practices built around automated testing. Any reasonably large software system needs multiple types of tests. In this talk (more of a discussion than a lecture), we’ll analyse several variations of different testing approaches to better understand their similarities and differences. 📣 Speaker 1: [Marko Bjelac](https://www.linkedin.com/in/markobjelac) ⏰ Schedule: \- Introduction \- What is a test? \- Discussion \- ⚡Lightning talks⚡ 🇭🇷 Za *munjevita predavanja* (⚡*lightning talks*⚡) se ne morate prijaviti unaprijed.

Open Heart Meditation Sessions with Amrita Rani (Live Online on Selected Thursdays via Zoom) You are warmly invited to join the Open Heart Meditation Sessions with Acharya Amrita Rani — a living space of awakenings and direct experience. These sessions are created both for beginners and seasoned practitioners who wish to deepen their meditation practice, stabilize awakening, and walk the path of enlightenment with guidance and support. Whether you are new or experienced, each gathering offers a grounded structure to help you build consistency in daily practice and grow in confidence on your spiritual path. At the heart of Open Heart teachings is direct recognition. Through the Two-Part Formula and precise meditative guidance, you are supported in shifting from self-based mode into selfless awareness, again and again, until cessation of suffering takes place. A central and deeply transformative practice in Open Heart is guru yoga. Through guru yoga, the practitioner directly connects with awakened awareness through devotion, transmission, and experiential recognition. With the help of this profound method, one recognizes their true selfless ease, the natural, effortless state beyond space and time. Alongside guru yoga, the sessions include insight meditation (Vipashyana), tantric methods, dynamic concentration, trauma-healing techniques, and foundational practices such as Bodhicitta prayers. Each session includes guided meditation, space for questions, reflection, and personal support. Rani’s meditation sessions are held live on Zoom on selected Thursdays from 18:30 to 20:00 (CET). Recordings may be available for continued integration and practice on her YouTube channel, The Sweetness of Enlightenment. Participation fee: 15 € per session Please make your payment in advance via PayPal before joining, to Rani’s PayPal account: kaisaeskeli@gmail.com Upcoming Thursday Sessions for Summer Season: 7.5.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 14.5.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 4.6.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 11.6.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 18.6.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 25.6.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 2.7.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 9.7.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 23.7.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 30.7.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) Zoom link for all sessions: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89766267672 Welcome all!

**Navigating the challenges of exiting hyperscalers in favor of EU cloud providers.** Are you in a toxic relationship with a major cloud provider? It’s expensive, overly complicated, but somehow... comfortable. Are you staying just because it's a known safety zone, even though the monthly bills and architectural overhead are causing constant anxiety? It’s time for a group therapy session. At this meetup, we are opening up the floor for an honest conversation about breaking up with big hyperscalers (AWS, GCP, Azure, Oracle Cloud) in favor of European alternatives like Hetzner. Using the metaphor of psychotherapy, we will dissect why exiting a comfortable but restrictive environment is so difficult, the real risks of staying, and what the path to infrastructure recovery actually looks like. **What's on the Agenda?** **Facing the Dependency:** Why do we stay with hyperscalers and how do you know when it’s time to leave? **The Developer’s Journey & Open Source Contribution:** A deep dive into the builder's mindset. Eduard will share the backstage story of creating a custom solution: * Why he decided to write a dedicated plugin instead of relying on existing workarounds. * The tech stack used, the development process, and the actual time investment required. * How to promote an open-source tool and the real-world feedback/impressions from active users. **Case Study:** A practical look at the **Hetzner Rancher nodedriver provider**—a plugin designed to make provisioning and managing Kubernetes clusters on Hetzner simple, smooth, and trauma-free. **Meet Your Therapist (Speaker)** **Eduard Bulai** – Coming all the way from Romania, Eduard is the very first international speaker to join the Karlovac Developers group. As the CEO of [zsys.ro](https://zsys.ro/), a boutique infrastructure engineering company, he brings 15 years of deep infra experience to the couch: * One half of his career has been strictly focused on OpenStack, Kubernetes, Rancher, Canonical MaaS, and Juju charms. * The other half was spent managing the full lifecycle of deployments on AWS, GCP, Azure, and Oracle Cloud. Having authored a custom Rancher plugin to bridge the gap between enterprise orchestration and European hosting, Eduard has lived through both sides of the cloud spectrum and is ready to share the raw, unvarnished truth.

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving." The film continues John Carney’s “long run of success with yet another charmer” and “a sharp, hopeful crowd-pleaser that strikes the right notes!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!

Join us for Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn! Fresh from a brief stay at a psych hospital, reporter Camille Preaker faces a troubling assignment: she must return to her tiny hometown to cover the unsolved murder of a preteen girl and the disappearance of another. For years, Camille has hardly spoken to her neurotic, hypochondriac mother or to the half-sister she barely knows: a beautiful thirteen-year-old with an eerie grip on the town. Now, installed in her old bedroom in her family's Victorian mansion, Camille finds herself identifying with the young victims—a bit too strongly. Dogged by her own demons, she must unravel the psychological puzzle of her own past if she wants to get the story-and survive this homecoming.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
