What we’re about
The purpose of this group is to bring together people who have a love for the German language, an interest in contemporary German culture, a desire to reconnect with friends and family in Germany - and everyone else who loves community, sustainability, art, music, games, and living life to the fullest!
Let's meet and find our common German ground, here in Boston!
The Goethe-Institut at 170 Beacon Street in Boston primarily hosts free events for the public, although some events do carry a small fee. There are game nights, movies, philosophical discussions, book clubs, and a weekly learning lounge open to anyone who would like to drop in and improve their German language skills.

Things are going well for Tim from Berlin: He lives in the best city in the world and has his dream job in the advertising industry. He's also single. Luckily! Because Tim loves his independence and he lives it to the fullest. Without any long-term interest, he meets one woman after another and enjoys the excitement of new acquaintances. Until Ghost crosses his path. She turns the tables: suddenly Tim wants to get to know her better and is head over heels in love. Ghost has no interest in something serious at all, which leaves Tim completely dumbfounded. Now he must try everything to show her what she's missing - and why not only he should give up his unattached life.
