Conservation Volunteering Paris
Environment lovers unite for conservation events in Paris

Become a volunteer!
Sat, Nov 7, 8:30 PM🍷 Why become a volunteer? We invite you to join our team of volunteers to organize fun activities while enjoying a free drink, a small perk, but things are moving forward as we aim to support organizers. For organizers, the first drink is free! It’s a great opportunity to meet new people, practice different languages, and discuss how you can, if you wish, contribute to the evolution of the Socializus project. Whether you’re a graphic designer, a developer, or looking to develop your skills in communication, event planning, or another field, you’re welcome. Our goal is simple: support organizers and promote friendly meetups and language exchanges. Over time, our community has grown to become the largest in Paris, and we’re thrilled to bring together people from diverse backgrounds to share great moments. Our initiative is driven by a non-profit association. This means we move forward slowly, with the resources we have, but always with the desire to create connections and support organizers who want to develop similar events. **Practical Info:** 🕖 From 9:30 PM 💸 Free with the Socializus pass on the free app! 📲 WhatsApp for quick info:[https://chat.whatsapp.com/IVuEzaPwe0h4iRHglUZWoa](https://chat.whatsapp.com/IVuEzaPwe0h4iRHglUZWoa) **How to participate:** Check the exact address with the free app and free pass:[www.socializus.org](http://www.socializus.org) Or support the association with an annual membership card:[https://www.placeminute.com/event/afterwork/apero-linguistique-dans-un-bar-secret,36046.html](https://www.placeminute.com/event/afterwork/apero-linguistique-dans-un-bar-secret,36046.html) **Stay connected:** 🔹 Meetup –[https://www.meetup.com/internationals-events-paris/](https://www.meetup.com/internationals-events-paris/) 🔹 WhatsApp (info & day-of reminders):[https://chat.whatsapp.com/IVuEzaPwe0h4iRHglUZWoa](https://chat.whatsapp.com/IVuEzaPwe0h4iRHglUZWoa) (Activate “Receive all” to stay in the loop!) 🔹 Facebook Group –[https://www.facebook.com/socializing.with.internationals.in.Paris/](https://www.facebook.com/socializing.with.internationals.in.Paris/) 🔹 Facebook Page – Photos, memories, and updates:[ ](https://www.facebook.com/groups/afterwork.paris)[https://www.facebook.com/socializing.with.internationals.in.Paris/](https://www.facebook.com/socializing.with.internationals.in.Paris/) 🔹 Socializus:[www.socializus.org](http://www.socializus.org) 🔹 Become an Organizer:[https://chat.whatsapp.com/KtR79S8Obfs3WTPTIBsoCm](https://chat.whatsapp.com/KtR79S8Obfs3WTPTIBsoCm) ✦✦ Last-minute changes can happen, but everything is updated via the app with the free pass.

Dimanche 8 novembre : Bain de forêt spécial "parfum d'automne"
Sun, Nov 8, 10:00 AM**A la découverte des parfums d'automne** *(English below)* Le prochain Bain de forêt sera **Dimanche 8 novembre** de 11h à 17h dans la forêt de Fontainebleau, *(ou 10h- 18h depuis la Gare de Lyon pour rejoindre Bois-le-Roi)*. C'est la saison idéale pour inspirer et absorber pleinement les odeurs splendides de la forêt et lors du prochain bain de forêt nous irons à la découverte des "**parfums de la forêt**" ! Lors de ces journées, nous alternons entre des temps de silence et des moments de partage. C'est à la fois introspectif et joyeux, pour (re)trouver de la détente et de la légèreté, ainsi qu'une énergie créative, souvent utile pour "la rentrée". De nombreuses études scientifiques démontrent les bienfaits de la forêt sur la santé mentale et physique des humains. *Pour en savoir plus : [https://laurabrav.fr/bains-de-foret](https://laurabrav.fr/bains-de-foret)* * **Sur place : 11h-17h en forêt** * Depuis Paris Gare de Lyon (accessible avec le Navigo) : 10h-18h **Tarif** : en participation consciente *(le montant "équilibre" pour moi serait une moyenne de 35€ par participant.e mais le plus important est que ces journées soient accessibles à tous.tes !)* *NB : je n'utilise pas Meetup come outil pour les inscription. Pour voir les détails pratiques et logistiques de cette sorties* : [c'est ici ](https://forms.gle/Go6Gppi3pdREP81j6) \-\-\-\- **Special forest bathing to discover and invent "forest perfume"** During a forest bathing outing, we alternate between silent introspective moments, and joyful shared practices, so as to find relaxation and cheer. For more information about my forest bathing approach, the information can be found on my website: [https://laurabrav.fr/bains-de-foret](https://laurabrav.fr/bains-de-foret) The starting point of this outing is Bois-le-Roi station at 11am (or Gare de Lyon at 10am to catch the 10.15am R train), returning to Paris by the 5pm train (arrives at Gare de Lyon at 6pm) ***Times may vary depending on the season*** **Tarif** : by "conscious donation" *(the amount which is a balance for me would be an average of 35€ per participant, but the most important thing is that everyone who is interested is able to come!)* *NB : I don't use Meetup as the signup tool.

Golden Andalusia: Moorish Palaces, Mountains and the Mediterranean
Fri, Nov 13, 11:00 AMSix days across southern Spain, from the Moorish palaces of Granada to the sunny Mediterranean seafront of Málaga. We climb above the tree line in the Sierra Nevada, walk the edge of Ronda’s gorge, and end in historic Seville, where the Real Alcázar, one of the city’s great palaces, was used as a filming location for Game of Thrones. HOW DO I JOIN THIS TRIP? Click on link below to get complete info, prices and to sign up for this event by getting your ticket. https://urbanaturetravel.com/event/golden-andalusia-moorish-palaces-mountains-and-sea 💬 WOULD YOU LIKE TO DISCUSS THIS TRIP FURTHER? Join our WhatsApp discussion group for this trip. Ask us any questions and chat with other travellers interested in it: 👉 https://chat.whatsapp.com/CgGtKTqZ7ioCYpQiIRZzUl SPECIAL OFFER FOR NEW USERS 10% New User Discount using promo code: MEETUP10 Valid for this trip or any other trips available on our website. 🌞Why Go? There is no better place to spend an autumn break than the Costa del Sol, the sunniest region of Spain. November is the ideal time to visit Andalusia. Daytime temperatures sit comfortably between 15°C and 20°C, perfect for exploring on foot, and the dense summer crowds have finally gone home. The amazing weather is just the start. What surprises most people is the dramatic landscape. The Sierra Nevada, mainland Spain’s highest mountain range, is just 45 minutes from Granada. This means we can hike at an altitude of 3,000 meters in the morning and be back in the city for tapas by evening. An hour south, the mountains plunge straight into the sea. Two hours west, the mountains break into gorges and white hill towns. Ronda is built right on the edge of one, a gorge around 100 metres deep spanned by an 18th-century bridge, and we’ll explore its old town with an optional light hike down into the gorge itself. Very few places in Europe let you experience all of this in the same week. When it comes to food, Granada is one of the last cities in Spain where every drink arrives with a complimentary plate of food, naturally turning dinner into a relaxed crawl from bar to bar. One evening, we’ll head to the Albaicín for flamenco to experience it in an authentic, intimate tablao. Woven through all of this is a history completely unlike the rest of Europe. Eight centuries of Moorish rule left behind masterpieces like the Alhambra in Granada and the Real Alcázar in Seville. These palaces are defined by open courtyards, running water channels, intricately carved plaster, and gardens designed specifically for shade and quiet. Join us in the heart of Andalusia for an unforgettable autumn escape, complete with great company, authentic paella, and exceptional wine. ⭐What are some of the Highlights? The Alhambra Grounds & the Albaicín: We walk up through the old Moorish quarter on cobbles that have not changed much in five hundred years, into the free Alhambra grounds, and on to Mirador de San Miguel Alto for sunset. The palace on one side, the Sierra Nevada behind it, and the whole of Granada below. Sierra Nevada High-Altitude Hike: Mainland Spain's highest mountain range, and a scenic loop above the tree line at over 2,500 metres. Roughly three hours at an easy pace with plenty of stops. Ronda & the Tajo Gorge: A white town built on the edge of a gorge around 100 metres deep, its two halves joined by the 18th-century Puente Nuevo. We walk the old Moorish quarter and the clifftop viewpoints. For anyone who is interested, there is an optional hike down into the gorge for the classic view of the bridge from below. The Real Alcázar & Seville Cathedral: A working royal palace built by Moorish craftsmen for Christian kings, with gardens that take an hour on their own. Next door, the largest Gothic cathedral in the world and the Giralda tower. Granada's Free Tapas: Granada is one of the last cities in Spain where a drink still comes with a plate of food, no charge. We do a guided night tapas crawl, trying out all of the specialties Andalusia has to offer. Traditional Flamenco: A first-row seat to a traditional flamenco show in a cave-style room in the Albaicín. Experience the soulful passion, fiery rhythm, and unforgettable intensity of live flamenco. 📋Trip Details 📅Start and End Date: Fri, Nov 13 - Wed, Nov 18 (5 nights) 📍Meeting Time and Location: Meet your guide around 12 pm at Málaga central train station María Zambrano (exact location to be provided in WhatsApp group for confirmed participants). 📍Finishing Time and Location: Wednesday afternoon, 18 November in Seville City Centre.
