Garden BBQ and Chat (Italiano, Japanese, Thai, French, English, Español)🍖🔥
Details
Spring is doing its yearly cameo in Brussels, so we’re stealing the good weather for a small garden BBQ: grill smoke, laughs, new friends, and language switching mid-sentence like civilized chaos.
We’ll mostly keep the conversations centered on food: what you brought, how it’s cooked back home, weird national traditions, and the kind of basic “nice to meet you” talk that works in any language. The goal is easy language practice, meeting new people, and having a good time. Jokes and funny trivia are welcome, as long as you can behave like an adult.
This is a bring & share setup: you show up with something tasty, you leave with new words, new people, and probably the strong opinion that your country does BBQ better (you’re welcome to defend that position).
### The vibe
- Backyard BBQ, relaxed and social
- Language exchange baked into the night (talk, eat, switch languages, repeat)
- Cultural food is strongly encouraged: bring your “this is what we eat at home” item
### Languages
Host is fluent in English, Italian, French, Spanish, and has basics of Russian, Croatian, Serbian, Japanese. If you speak anything else, bring it. We collect languages like Pokémon.
### What to bring (Bring & Share)
- Food + drinks for you AND something to share
- Bonus points for something from your culture
- If you’re bringing veggie stuff, make it something people actually want to eat.
### If you don’t want to bring food
Message the host in WhatsApp. You can pay a small fee instead and still eat like a functional adult.
### Contribution
€2 per person to cover wood/charcoal. Yes, even in 2026 humans still pay for fire.
### Location (shared privately)
The address is shared only with confirmed RSVPs who:
- Join the CLUB WhatsApp chat
- Send a quick intro: first name + languages + what you’re into

### Rules (because humans)
- Not a dating meetup.
- This is not an “NPC meetup” where everyone tiptoes around like they’re negotiating a hostage release. People can talk freely and share opinions. No censorship, no tone-policing, no drama farming.
- No creeps. No harassment. No pushing after a “no.” No weird DMs.
- Respect the host’s home, neighbors, and the group.
- If you act shady, you’re out. Simple.
