**Silent Reading Book Club** A new way to enjoy reading! Ditch the old book club, where everyone has to read the same book…this is better! It works like this: Bring your own book. Come chat, have some tea or coffee, get to know your neighbors. Then we quietly read together, side by side, for about one hour, each one reading their own book, and afterwards we talk with each other about what we are reading. You may read in any language, you may read any book. We are a group of international residents of Berlin from many different countries, of all ages, and we converse in English. We welcome you! no registration needed- the event is donation based

This meetup is a relaxed kick-off for everyone who’s curious about building something together. The idea: creating a playful scavenger hunt for Berlin — step by step, as a community. Not as a fixed project yet, but as an open exploration of what could be fun, meaningful, and doable together. This first meetup is a thinking and exchange space: * What makes a great scavenger hunt? * Digital or analogue? * Small and simple, or a bit more ambitious? * How could we collaborate in a way that feels light and sustainable? You don’t need any prior experience, skills, or commitment. Just curiosity, ideas, and an interest in making things with others. This meetup is part of our **Maker Octopus** 🐙 spirit — about experimenting, co-creating, and letting ideas grow through shared action. Meet your host I’m Julia — a Berlin local who loves bringing people together. My path went from growing up in a dance school to studying philosophy to working in IT support, and somehow all of that led me here: hosting meetups and creating spaces where people can show up, relax, and connect.

Be ready to join in :D **Please keep updating your RSVP** (Assist/Won't Assist) **as your availability changes.

We open the departures list** and figure out a way to decide which train we take. Throwing a die, or just we find a name of a place interesting, or something else. Once in the train we will also find a way to decide when we get out and what we do from there. The idea is to spend a good amount of the day walking and letting go. I of course have no idea when we'll be back, but let's try to do it before the sun hides completely. One constraint that could be good is to walk towards a station in a different line than the one we started at. We'll see :) \-\-\- **Transport:** **DeutschlandTicket only**, as we don't know where we are going or where we are stopping. **Disclaimers:** \- Participation is under your own responsibility\, the organizers are not liable for damages or losses\. \- Some pictures/video might be taken and displayed publicly for the purposes of promotion of the group\.

Bitte über Eventbrite registrieren, um einen Platz zu sichern 👉 [https://stille-stunde.eventbrite.de](https://stille-stunde.eventbrite.de) In Gesellschaft fällt es oft leichter, konzentriert bei sich zu bleiben – produktiv, ruhig und ganz im eigenen Element – aber eben nicht allein. (*#bodydoubling*) Diese Gruppe trifft sich *jeden 2. und 4. Sonntag im Monat* und bietet einen festen Rahmen für ruhige, konzentrierte Zeit: zum Lesen, Schreiben, Planen, Lernen, lang aufgeschobene Aufgaben oder einfach stilles Dasein. Alle bringen ihr eigenes Projekt mit – wir teilen nur den Raum und die Atmosphäre. **ABLAUF:** * 30 Min. Ankommen: Bekanntmachen, Platz suchen und einrichten, evtl. Getränk holen, kurzer Austausch (wer mag, kann kurz erzählen, woran in der stillen Stunde gearbeitet wird.) * 60 Min. Stille Stunde: Alle konzentrieren sich auf das eigene Tun. Keine Ablenkung, kein Smalltalk. * 30 Min. Ausklang: Wer möchte, bleibt zum Reden, Austauschen oder einfach Durchatmen. **HINWEISE:** * Max. 8 “Stille”, Anmeldung erforderlich 👉 [https://stille-stunde.eventbrite.de](https://stille-stunde.eventbrite.de) * Kosten: € 1,00 Stuhlgeld für das Nachbarschaftszentrum * Für Kaffee und Tee wird gesorgt Da ich mehrere Plattformen zur Ankündigung nutze, kann es vorkommen, dass ich die Anmeldungen schließen muss, auch wenn hier weniger Teilnehmer angezeigt werden.

Diese Gruppe ist offen für alle: egal ob jung (18+) oder alt, Bücherwurm, Notizbuchfan, Planungsfuchs oder stiller Denker.

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 Sunday afternoon. **How it works?** The concept is very simple: * We meet at Boddinstr U Bahn 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 Volkspark Hasenheide, crossing the entire park 🌳🌳🌳 and going then further * We go on reaching then Park am Gleisdreieck 🌲🌳☘️ * We finally reach KERB at Potsdamer Platz (https://maps.app.goo.gl/cT3642AqjumEMuCP9) to sit down together to take something to drink or eat 🥐☕🍪 * The total length of the walk is about 8kms I consider that the event will last in overall around 4 hours (2 hours of walk and 2 hours at Kerb), but people are free to stay together longer, if they want 🙂 What I provide is leading the walk and the people at Kerb, 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.

Communication is everything in life! You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024
