1 EURO DONATION FEE PER PERSON IS REQUIRED (on site, in cash), to pay back the Meetup subscription fees and support my Events. READ THE DESCRIPTION WITH THE INFO (IMPORTANT). We take a walk in Berlin to meet new people or people we already know 😁 It's a way to spend a few hours together on a Saturday afternoon. **How it works?** The concept is very simple: * We meet at Sonnenallee Station at 14,15 o'clock (we use the Whatsapp Chat to find each other: I will post there my exact location outside the station) * I wait for people for 10 minutes, till 14,25, then we start to walk direction Treptower Park, crossing the entire park 🌳🌳🌳 and going along the Spree river, to then go further * We go on along the Landwehrkanal, exploring Kreuzberg 🏠 * The total length of the walk is about 8kms * We land finally here to take coffee, a drink, or some food, and spend more time together (https://maps.app.goo.gl/RsUCxwDKK6yVtiF48) I consider that the event will last in overall around 4 hours (2 hours of walk and 2 hours at the Cafe/Restaurant), but people are free to stay together longer, if they want 🙂 What I provide is leading the walk and the people at the Cafe, but I do not force anyone to stay shorter or longer. I do not provide a "personal support" for people who arrive after 14,25 (do not write to me expecting "private support"). You are responsible to check for the weather and decide if come or not. Thanks for understanding. If you have to contact me, make it via Whatsapp, not here on Meetup.

Sunday will be a partially sunny day. We meet at 10 am at the U-Bahn station Mendelssohn-Bartholdy-Park at the corner Reichpietschufer/Köthener Straße and walk the following route - https://www.komoot.com/tour/2660606976 - passing by some monuments and the like. After three quarters of the hike, we visit FHXB Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg Museum for approximately an hour (free entrance) and/or have a coffee. If you need to contact other participants during the hike (for example, to find out where to meet us if you are running late), please use the Signal group link that I will send to all participants via private message three hours before the hike. This timing is intended to prevent non-participants from misusing the link for unwanted advertising, which has happened in the past. Signal also allows us to share our locations during the hike without involuntarily forwarding this information to the intelligence services of authoritarian or non-authoritarian states. For all other purposes, especially socialising and posting photos, please use the Telegram subgroup 'Event Chat & Photos': https://t.me/addlist/KAOk2PA4BDE0ZTY8 . The hike will take place if at least 6 people sign up. As long as there are more than 6 people, you can sign up and cancel as many times as you like. If there are 6 or less people, please avoid cancelling, as this might make the other participants feel insecure about whether the hike will take place (or whether there is something wrong with the hike and they should cancel as well --> [Matthew effect - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_effect)). If there are less than 6 participants, the hike will also take place unless the majority of the participants are in favor of canceling the hike.

Um Harmonie zu erlangen arbeiten Sie mit Ihrem Herzen, anstatt mit Ihrem Gehirn. Hallo hoch geschätzte Wanderlustige und Freunde der deutschen und englischen Sprachen, haben Sie ein frohes Weihnachten gehabt? ZEIT (SPAZIERGANG) \~2 Stunden, (Mit Pausen), wenn wir mit einer Geschwindigkeit von etwa 2,5 Meilen pro Stunde laufen. ZEIT (VERANSTALTUNG) \~2,5 - 3 Stunden. Wir begrüßen uns um 14 Uhr bei Oslo Kaffebar, Eichendorffstraße 13, 10115. Wir unterhalten uns auf Deutsch und Englisch für eine halbe Stunde bis eine Stunde damit jedes Mitglied ohne Hetze ankommen dürfte. Männer, bitte kaufen Sie Kuchen oder Ähnliches damit die Gruppe wie keine geizige Gruppe zu sein anscheint. Heute beschreibe ich nur den Begrüßungsplatz, seit man immer sehr fleißig sein muss, über einen ganzen Wanderweg jedes Mal zu schreiben. Also, wir begrüßen uns, und den Wanderweg empfehle ich, und es kann sein, dass wir den Weg gleich zusammen bestimmen. Poetry & Puls setzt sich den Zweck den Armut betroffenen Personen durch die kalte Jahreszeiten zu helfen. Sozialhilfe in Verbindung mit Sprachtraining ist unser Zweck. Wir sind begeistert Leuten, die wenig platt gewesen sind, bei Spaziergängen zu begleiten. Leute, die aus unbelebten Dörfer stammen, oder neben der Eisenbahn wohnen, können sich manchmal fühlen wie die Großstadt sehr lärmig sein kann, und wie durch den Lärm und Kälte des Winters den Atem eventuell erstickt werden könnte. Durch die kälteste Zeiten ist es am Wichtigsten, dass wir für unsere Beweglichkeit sorgen. Wenn wir wenig platt gewesen sind, sollen wir eine Ruhepause von zu viel Spaß bei YouTube oder soziale Medien haben um Schwung zu erhalten. Um Harmonie zu erlangen arbeiten Sie mit Ihrem Herzen, anstatt mit Ihrem Gehirn. Wir sollen erst unsere Wohnungen für wenige Stunden einfach verräumen um unsere Körper zu betätigen. Dann kommen wir durch die kalten Zeiten. Spaziergänge sind immer schön, und etwas in der Natur der Stadt und in den Parks wirkt, also keiner Spaziergang ist gleich zu einem Anderen. Wir sollen denn die Bäume der Stadt schätzen. Es gibt immer etwas neues zu bewundern, egal ob den Pfad gleich ist. Die Stadt kann lärmig sein, jedoch gibt es sonnige Tage den ganzen Winter durch. Wir müssen nur Dankbarkeit für die gute Tage haben Auftakt zu erhalten. Wenn Sie auch so eine soziale Sorgfalt für Armut betroffene Leute haben, bitten wir Sie unsere Gruppe zu fördern. Uns zu fördern müssen Sie nur Mitglied bei einem Spaziergang sein, und gleich zusammen Fröhlichkeit mit uns haben. „Fröhlichkeit ist nur echt, wenn wir sie gleich anwesend zusammen haben.“ - Christopher McCandless (Into The Wild) Bitte nehmen Sie Kommunikation mit uns durch die Signal Gruppe auf: [https://signal.group/#CjQKIBTrh2sYFm3OGDi4r40tkgKiUyVPfvcwu31zIEsEScSxEhAI7mF8oDKHqZwLobqmW73_](https://signal.group/#CjQKIBTrh2sYFm3OGDi4r40tkgKiUyVPfvcwu31zIEsEScSxEhAI7mF8oDKHqZwLobqmW73_) Auf die Gesellschaft, das Gespräch auf Deutsch und Englisch, und den Spaziergang!!! Versäumen Sie nichts! Übrigens: kleine Gruppen sind besser, denn wir die andere Mitglieder besser kennenlernen können und eine größere Möglichkeit echte Freundschaften aufzubauen haben.
