What we’re about
We organize a large singles party just about every week of the year, all over the Bay Area! We do dance parties, speed dating, cocktail parties, holiday parties, and travel to destinations worldwide.
All of our 55 parties a year all over the Bay Area benefit The Seva Foundation, located in Berkeley CA, to restore sight to the blind. All of us who work at the parties are volunteers. Every $50 we raise allows Seva to finance a cataract surgery in one of the poor countries of the world! Please spread the word to all of your single friends so that together we can help 15 million people who need this operation to regain their sight.
DISCOUNTS for our parties are available on our main website, www.thepartyhotline.com.

The Dana to Petra Trek w/ bonus of Wadi Rum! A Jordan Discovery Adventure.
San Jose Airport (SJC), Terminal B, Terminal B, 1701 Airport Blvd, San Jose, CA 95110, San Jose, CA, USOur Meetup group is off on another thrilling hiking adventure to exotic faraway lands! This time, we are trekking in Jordan, where breathtaking views of sandstone cliffs, narrow gorges, and vast plains unfold against the backdrop of the Great Rift Valley.
The Dana to Petra trek, also known as the Dana Wadi Trail, is one of Jordan's most renowned hiking experiences. It takes us through a diverse range of landscapes, offering a mix of natural beauty, historical significance, and cultural encounters.
The trek begins from Dana village, a charming and ancient small town, known for its stone houses and traditional architecture. It is located in Jordan's largest nature reserve - Dana, which also gives the name of the trek. The Dana Trail spans a variety of ecosystems, from lush woodlands to arid desert.
In addition to the amazing hiking experience, our Meetup trip provides a unique cultural exposure. We will have the opportunity to interact with local Bedouin communities and even stay in a Bedouin camp, experiencing their hospitality, traditional food, and way of life.
The trek culminates in the ancient city of Petra, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Entering Petra from the "backdoor" via the Monastery (Ad Deir) is a unique experience, offering a less crowded approach to this iconic archaeological site.
The actual trek from Dana to Petra covers approximately 50 miles and it will take us 6 days. The trek is considered moderately challenging, with some sections requiring good physical fitness due to rugged terrain and long distances.
The whole trip, however, is 12 days as we are spending some time sightseeing and visiting some of the amazing tourist spots of Jordan. In addition to Petra we will see Amman, Madaba, Mt Nebo, Dead Sea and Aqaba at the Red Sea.
Limited size to 24 attendees total. This trip will fill up extremely quickly.
