Multi-Language Exchange Fridays @ RUKIS (10+ attendees)
👋 **Host** (text/call if you can't find the group)
* Alisa +372 560 49 272 (call) / +972 585 77 45 37 (WA text)
Love languages? 👅 Want to practice speaking? Come to our meetup!
*How does it work? Simple!*
👉 Make a name tag with your name and languages that you speak/learn!
👉 Look for someone who has a language you want to practice - and strike a conversation!
*Important:*
* **Be comfortable to "eavesdrop"** **on a conversation** in a fascinating language you are not ready to speak yet - "I just want to listen" is a thing! ☝😎
* If someone joins you with this intention - **don't switch to English** (as you normally would, because you don't want to exclude your friend from a conversation!) - but in this setting - **keep talking!** You are giving others an opportunity to listen! 😁👂
Well, this is it... we are looking forward to seeing you on Friday! Let's discover unexpected language matches together! 🤩
📸Disclaimer: The host may take photos during the event for promotion purposes. If you do not agree with this, please inform the host directly at the beginning of the meetup, otherwise it will be understood as consent.
✅**Please RSVP** so that we could take your participation into account. Let the hosts know if you happen to be late. Invite friends and family who share your love for books and languages!

Bible Study every Friday (in English)
To all locals, expats, and visitors in Tallinn, welcome!
My wife and I are delighted to invite you to study the Word of God with us every Friday at 6:30 p.m. in a casual setting, accompanied by coffee and tea.
We believe the Bible is entirely true, and we strive to live by its teachings. We also believe that the love of God is so powerful that it can touch hearts and heal what's broken in all of us.
Let's study Christianity together to help you find answers to questions like:
\*What is the meaning of life?
* How do I deal with difficult situations
* Who is God, and what is the Trinity?
* How can Jesus Christ help me?
* How can I forgive and treat others with love?
Please join us or reach out if you have any questions!
The meetups are in English.
Tallinn Fit Women’s Groove
We’re going to have a nice outside full-body workout, 🏋🏻♀️ controlled by a fitness coach Yuliia, who is also a World Grappling Silver Medalist (martial arts), so take a good mood and wear the sports clothes!
Women's Day Trip to a Pagan Bee-Farm to Celebrate Beltane
Free yearly Beltane celebration for pagan, spiritual and just curious women looking to connect with spiritual practitioners, mindful friends or meet local witches.
May 1 We're celebrating Beltane at my oven's co-founder's Alice's farm, and it's a national holiday!
We will meet at Vabaduse Bus stop and go together by bus. Buses go back every hour. Read all details below.
Beltane is the mid-point between Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice, a fire festival celebrating fertility, sex, love, marriage and childbirth, and the life-force energy of nature in full bloom. No 0rgy this year (joke) but we will be talking a lot about the stages of womanhood.
Its counterpart is Halloween. While Halloween / Samhain the veil is thin, especially for world of the dead on underworld, Beltane is also a thin veil but for souls looking to be born, heaven, muses looking to inspire etc. It's death vs birth.

MENU (everyone brings something to our community table, this is how we keep the event free):
🍯 Honey-themed goodies: honey cake, honey cookies, sweets in general (anything golden and sweet)
🔥 Fire foods for grilling: mushrooms, corn, bell peppers, asparagus, zucchini, easy grill sausages and meat—basically anything that loves fire!
🥬 LOTS of fresh dark green leaves: salads, herbs, greens of all kinds (we are embracing our inner cows lol)
🌶️ Spicy things: spicy jerky, chips, wings, spicy salads
Important ‼️ who’s confident on grill duty and can tell when things are actually cooked through ? If nobody is confident, bring easy to cook things like sausages or grilling cheese.
Weather looks like it might be anything live 7–14°C, so dress in layers and stay comfy as the day shifts.
○
MAIN ACTIVITY:
🔥 Circle around the fire. We will share and discuss what to us does it mean to be a woman, our thoughts about kids and marriage, our reservations on insights about sex, our experience of love and motherhood, what it's like being 10, 20, 30, 40 years old etc. and how we feel about aging, and other tips and wisdoms.
🥁 Optional: drums and instruments 🎶 I’m suggesting a relaxed improv rhythm circle around the fire, just repetition and flow to drop into a meditative group state…
🎀 Dance around a may pole ! If Alice the owner of the farm is unable to provide a may pole, we can instead run around a tree and wrap it with ribbons. ⚠️ Please bring looooong ribbons (like 10-20 meters is good depending on pole/tree thickness) or several colourful ribbons to tie together. Ribbons can be whatever you can find ;)

CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
Practical AI for Power BI Developers
A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective.
This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly.
Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.
