**Let's celebrate new year! You can come at any time!** 1.) 18:30 - 19:00: Gathering at the meeting spot. 2.) 19:00 - 19:30: Walk&Talk to Kerb foodcourt. 3.) 19:30 - 22:00: Dinner/Drinks at the Kerb foodcourt. 🪑: Reserved tables for the meetup (only approved members on the list!). 🍬: Free sweets for everyone on the attending list. ⚠️**Note:** ONLY approved members who signed up for this event are allowed to join, because the seats in the Kerb food court are limited. I'll make a reservation once I know the exact number of people joining! **1.) How to the find Quartier 205 Stadtmitte:** [https://goo.gl/maps/6Fhft3LbPhcEsQrdA](https://goo.gl/maps/6Fhft3LbPhcEsQrdA) The exact meeting spot can be seen in the photo below! We meet on the 1st floor where the trash sculpture can be seen. Look for a meetup sign or organizer wearing a black or red lanyard with "staff" written on it. **2.) Walk&Talk to Kerb:** The best part. In order to extend the walk we'll stroll all the way to Brandenburger gate and from there to the former Sony Center where we are going to enter the Kerb foodcourt. **3\. How to find the Manifesto Market** [https://goo.gl/maps/aSnChzLuE6akyP4F8](https://goo.gl/maps/aSnChzLuE6akyP4F8) The food hub is located in "The Playce". The new flagship shopping center of Potsdamer Platz. Most likely we will be upstairs on the first floor next to Kabuki. The first floor offers authentic Asian food from Korea, Japan and China: Bibimbap, ramen, sushi, sea food etc. The ground floor offers Syrian, Greek, Mexican and Argentinian cuisine, tasty Hamburgers, rolled ice creme and a beer tower! *Who is this meetup for:* 1\. Asians who want to practice German and/or English\. 2\. German speaking individuals who are studying \(preferably\) Japanese\, Korean\, Mandarin or Cantonese\. 3\. Anyone who is interested in cultural exchange and wants to socialize\. *What you can expect:* 1\. A professionally organized meetup that can adapt to any changes given the current situation\. 2\. A Walk & Talk to break the ice\. 3\. A collaborating venue where you can further socialize with other members\. *** Whenever you attend a meetup, the most common as well as first question you get is: "Where are you from?" You probably heard this question a million times. Well, at least I did. From my own experience of attending over 200 international meetups in various countries such as Germany, Japan, Australia and Thailand, I can tell you that asking for the name is a better approach. “A person’s name is to that person, the sweetest, most important sound in any language.” - Dale Carnegie If you really want to connect with like-minded people you should remember their name, but you don't have to remember every persons name you've talked you. Be picky about that, don't be me who can somehow remember everyones name easily. Don't tell yourself sth. like "I'm bad at remembering names." It's all about developing the habit of asking for a name and keep the conversation going on. Furthermore, you want to learn German or any other language. Learning the local language is crucial to connect with the locals and developing a true friendship. This can be accomplished with immersion. My goal is to inspire you to go out of your comfort zone and improve yourself each time you join this meetup.

The Language Café is primarily aimed at people who are struggling with their mental health which can make it hard to go to regular courses. We want to create a safe space for everyone to learn and practise without pressure. Everyone is welcome! Please try to be on time so we can all get started together :) We mainly practise on a beginner/lower intermediate level and adapt to everyone's prior level of German. The Language Café will focus on teaching you the most important words and phrases and basic grammar in German. The content of the course is adapted to real life. (everyday life in Germany, dealing with authorities, etc.) We will cover different topics every week and you can join us anytime, since the topics do not necessarily build on each other. The Sprachcafé is for free. \*If you cannot make it please cancel your participation so someone else from the waiting list can join, thank you!\* \| \| \| \|

**We are happy to announce a new Tandem Night!** After the success of our previous Sprachyfass events, we’re excited to present our latest edition; this time focusing exclusively on **German and French**. This event offers a relaxed environment to practice your language skills while meeting new people.

Can I still participate?** Yes, you’re welcome to join even if one language is stronger for you. However, the goal is to create a tandem environment between German and French, so it’s ideal if you have some knowledge of both. 2. **My proficiency isn’t very high, but I’d like to participate. Is this event suitable for me?** Absolutely! This event is all about practicing and connecting, so all skill levels are encouraged. Just keep in mind that the focus is on German and French. 3. **Is there a fee to attend?** No, the event is free.

If someone arrives much earlier, Denizen may ask them to pay either for a drink (consumption) or for a **day pass**, as the space is a co-working environment during the day. **Please remember, our event is only happening from 18:00 to 20:00** **How the Sprachcafé works** We use different materials to help participants gain confidence in German. Together with whiteboards and our volunteers, the Sprachcafé is based on **interactive conversations** in small groups. **Participation fee** The Sprachcafé has a **participation fee of 5 €**, which helps cover organizational costs and **includes one soft drink for free**. Tickets can be purchased directly on the day of the event, card and cash payments are accepted. As the Sprachcafé has become very popular, we now need to **limit the number of participants**. Please understand this measure; it ensures that everyone has a comfortable space to practice. We kindly ask you to be **rücksichtsvoll** and only RSVP “Yes” if you are certain you can attend. If your plans change at the last minute, please update your RSVP so someone on the waiting list can take your spot. Getting your ticket early can help secure your place. **Please note** Our event will begin **promptly** at the scheduled start time. If you arrive late, we cannot guarantee your participation, even if you have a ticket or have RSVP’d. We encourage all guests to arrive on time to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. **About Denizen** Denizen is a new-style co-working space focused on being an integral part of local communities. Located on the ground floor of the historic Eiswerk on Köpenicker Straße in Kreuzberg, Denizen House is a communal place providing work, refreshment, and recreational facilities throughout the day. Think of it as a living room for the neighborhood. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to let me know. If you’d like to contribute to this night, send me a message! Ich freue mich schon! Grüße, **Nacho**

Hej allihopa😀! 💡 Idén med svensk minglet är enkel: prata svenska och ha kul på samma gång! Som vanligt kommer vi att träffas på **cafébaren i Fotografiska**. Vi träffas på **fredag 20:e februari 2026 kl. 19.00**⏰. Närmaste tunnelbanestationen är Oranienburgerstraße. Cafébaren kan nås via S-Bahn med samma namn. Du kan hitta oss genom den svenska flaggan 🇸🇪 som vi ställer på bordet! 📚 Har du en bok på svenska som du vill ge vidare eller byta bort? Passa på att ta med den till träffen! 📢 OBS: Det här är en konversationsgrupp, dvs. du borde redan kunna förstå och prata tillräckligt bra för att aktivt kunna delta i samtalet på svenska. Vi pratar endast på svenska, inte tyska, inte heller engelska. Tack för din förståelse! Glöm inte att anmäla dig om du vill vara med och avanmäl dig om du inte kan komma trots allt, tack 😊. Ser fram emot att mingla med er😀! Vi ses snart! Baptiste & Paula Foto: Henrik Trygg/imagebank.sweden.se
