Small curated movie nights in a hidden garden in Ixelles, next to Place Flagey. A mix of: * **cult classics** * **recent movies** * **international cinema** * **comedy nights** * **karaoke & dubbing chaos nights** * **comfort food and summer vibes** **This is not a giant public Meetup** where 40 strangers stand awkwardly around overpriced drinks pretending networking is fun. Humanity already suffered enough. Our idea is simple: we gather in a private home and transform the courtyard into a small outdoor cinema. Sometimes we cook together before the movie: Italian, Thai, Lebanese, Japanese, Balkan, Greek, Latin American street food etc. Sometimes people simply grab pizza from the excellent pizzeria next door and join the screening. Food is intentionally relaxed: bowls, finger food, street food, popcorn, snacks, comfort food. **Some nights are more gourmet.** Some are glorified pizza-and-movie nights. Both are valid forms of civilization **;-)** ## **What makes this different** The group is i**ntentionally small**: usually 6 to 8 people maximum. **People are introduced properly.** Nobody gets abandoned in a corner. The atmosphere stays human, social and safe. **No heavy drinking.** **No creepy behavior.** No random people showing up uninvited. Smoking is allowed because is outside in the courtyard and occasionally we may have **hookah nights** depending on the movie/theme. ## **Typical evenings** * Wong Kar-wai + Asian comfort food * Spaghetti western + Italian street food * Anime + sushi night * Greek cinema + mezze * Balkan chaos cinema + burek * Cult movie dubbing nights where people voice scenes live karaoke-style Yes, this is a real thing now apparently. ## **Important** Because Meetups and public internet are full of bots, spam accounts and socially radioactive individuals, **we do NOT post the exact address publicly.** To join: scan the QR code on the image and request access to the private WhatsApp group or send me a DM. From there: * we announce movies * vote on menus * organize cooking nights * coordinate places **If you are new in Brussels, introverted, traveling, recently arrived, or simply tired of giant impersonal events, this may be your thing.**

Drinking & Networking in Brussels. For newcomers, temporary in town - couch surfers and regulars to meet & socialize. What a better day to start the week than drinking & socializing starting on Monday evening?

WHAT we play. As you know, we have two events, one more for social games on Thursday and another for **strategic games** on **Monday**. Depending on what people bring, we may play brainy games, not limited to chess and classic games. So, feel free to bring other ones. And this is only indicative. Some games like Decrypto fit both events, **and if people feel like playing a social game on Monday or a more strategic one on Thursday, they are free to do so.** WHERE. Because we have many strategic players on Monday and these games take longer, we moved to a café closing much later than the previous one. CHATBOX USE. In the event chatbox, you are invited to discuss the games you bring and want to play for this session. The idea is to gather people around game tables beforehand. Of course, it's also possible to show up and arrange this after the introduction round, which starts at 7h15. HOST. If you want to become a host and have your board game event for a specific game with a small group of people or in another place, Great! Let me know, and I'll help you set up your event with this group. Hosts don't pay fees. TIMING: Because strategy games are often longer, we gather at 7 pm and start at 7:15. So, those who play long games can have 3 hours and 30 minutes for their game. You can come later, but you may have to wait before joining a game. WHERE. We play upstairs. Ask which room at the bar downstairs. DRINK. You have to order a drink at the bar, pay for it, and come up with it. **PLEASE TAKE NOTE THAT, UNFORTUNATELY, THE AUTOBUS ACCEPTS CASH ONLY.** EVENT REGISTRATION. Please register to allow us adequate venue planning. IN CASE OF A WAITLIST. Please, out of respect for people on the waiting list, don't cancel later than 7 PM the day before so they can plan their evening correctly. If you are on the waiting list, please cancel your attendance if you change your mind and can no longer come. Don't hesitate to send me a message to comment or make suggestions! Take care and see you soon! Baudouin

Join us for a relaxed day trip to the beautiful city of Spa! ✨ **We’ll meet at Central Station at 08:30 AM and take the 09:01 AM train to Spa together 🚆**. Once there, we’ll explore the city, enjoy the peaceful Ardennes atmosphere, walk around, and do a light hike in the area 🌲🥾. The goal is simple: meet friendly people, enjoy nature, have good conversations, and take some nice photos 📸. Spa is not just a beautiful town — it is also famous for its natural mineral waters, its wellness history, and its elegant atmosphere 💧✨. Fun fact: the word “spa” is used all around the world to describe places for relaxation, wellness, thermal baths, massages, and mineral-water treatments. The name is connected to the Belgian town of Spa, famous for its natural springs and long wellness history. So by visiting Spa, we are visiting the place that helped inspire a word known worldwide! 🌍 We will also have lunch there during the day 🍽️. Everyone is welcome — locals, expats, newcomers, travelers, and anyone who wants to discover Spa in a social and relaxed atmosphere 😊. Please bring comfortable shoes, water, and good energy 💧👟. **Each person is responsible for buying their own train ticket and paying for anything they need during the trip 🎟️.** **Important note: this is a friendly social trip, not a guided tour. There will be no professional guide during the visit. It will also be the first time visiting Spa for the organizers, so we invite everyone to come with a spirit of adventure, flexibility, curiosity, and a positive attitude 🌍✨.** **Let’s enjoy discovering the place together and make the best of the day as a group**!

## Time & Location Thursday Sep 03, 2026, 5:00 PM – Sunday Sep 06, 2026, 10:00 AM Columbus, Columbus, OH, USA ## About the event **Camp4Jesus is the kind of weekend your heart has been craving.** Join 14 other women over Labor Day weekend for a luxury all-inclusive Bible camp retreat designed to help you step away from the noise, feel close to God, and reconnect with the joy, wonder, and lightness you may not have felt in a long time. Set on a property with the perfect mix of luxury and nature, this retreat brings together the best parts of what made girlhood feel so special: laughter that comes easily, late-night conversations, deep belly laughs, a sense of belonging, and the freedom to just be. But this time, it’s wrapped in the depth, peace, and intention of celebrating the women we are today. Think delicious meals prepared by a private chef, meaningful connection, cozy nights, faith-filled worship, little surprises, and space to rest, have fun, and feel like yourself again. After attending women’s retreats over the past five years, I’m creating Camp4Jesus with the very best parts of what I’ve experienced and loved most. My number one goal is to give you the chance to come back to the parts of yourself that feel soft, open, joyful, and fully alive. The part of you that still wants wonder. The part of you that wants real sisterhood. The part of you that wants to be with God in a way that feels honest, peaceful, and close. **No outside noise. Just space re-charge the soul battery, play like a kid, and HAVE FUN.** **WHAT'S INCLUDED:** * 3 nights in a luxury nature home * worship + bible study groups * private chef + all-inclusive meals & drinks * planned camp activities * fitness classes + workshops * wild swimming pool + man made slide * hottub + oversize indoor jacuzzi * acres of private walking trails + grounds * surprise guests & speakers * individual photoshoots (optional) * gift bag and merch **WHO IT'S FOR:** * Women 21+ * Women who are at any stage of their faith * Women who love girlhood and meeting new friends * Women who don't mind being outside for activities * Women looking for something to wake their soul UP! **FAQs:** * Wear will I sleep? - We offer private and shared rooms with provate shower + bath (you'll be treated like royalty) :) * Can I bring a friend? - Yes of course! In fact if you select a private room, you can bring a friend for a discounted price. * Can I drive there? - Yup. There is plenty of parking available. If you're flying in, we can help you arrange a ride from the airport. * Do I need to bring food? - No way! We got you covered and in fact will be spoiling you all weekend. Don't worry bout a thang! * What should I pack? - Keep it simple. Once you purchase your ticket, we'll send you our style + packing guide. **[APPLY FOR OUR 2026 RETREAT](https://forms.gle/Jxm9jpomK13e6tTD7)**
