There is no shortcut to Spanish fluency - but Spanglish is so fun you won’t want one! Spanglish starts during the 30 minute check in: Get to know the other Spanglishers – about half of the attendees at every event are new! After a little bit of ice-breaking, you’ll head to an assigned table for your first one-on-one conversation. No need to worry about making mistakes – the person sitting across from you is in the same boat! You converse for 5 minutes in english, 5 in Spanish – and then move on to a new conversation partner. By the second rotation we promise you’ll be having so much fun you’ll forget you’re learning.
What do we talk about at Spanglish?:
Whatever you want! There are no set topics. We talk about everything from our favorite superheroes to our favorite restaurants – it’s the best way to practice another language – hanging out in a relaxing environment and talking about stuff you know and like!

Meet New Faces: Good Energy, Real Connections✨
# 🌟 **ENGLISH VERSION**
📍 **Dilettos Pastas & Café – Perón 4217, Buenos Aires**
🗓️ **Every Saturday \| 18:00 HS – 20:00 HS**
🎟️ **Entry: 5,000 ARS (≈ 5 USD)**
***
### 🌈 **Saturdays just got better.**
Let’s face it — meeting new people as an adult is weird, awkward, and sometimes straight-up intimidating.
So we created a space where everything feels easy.
No pressure. No scripts. No “networking voice.”
Just real people, good energy, and conversations that actually go somewhere.
Come grab a seat, chat with someone new, flirt if the vibe is right 😉, and enjoy that magic moment when strangers start feeling like friends.
No minimum consumption — just bring your vibe, your curiosity, and let the night flow.
Expect:
✨ Multilingual chaos
✨ Cultural surprises
✨ Genuine laughs
✨ Unexpected chemistry
✨ And that “how are we just meeting now?” feeling
This isn’t networking.
This isn’t speed dating.
This is **Culture Shock Therapy** — where the city meets the world.🌍⚡
If you’ve been searching for your tribe in Buenos Aires…
You’ve officially found it

# 🌟 **VERSIÓN EN ESPAÑOL**

🗓️ **Todos los sábados \| 18:00 HS – 20:00 HS**
🎟️ **Entrada: $5.000 (≈ 5 USD)**
***
### 🎉 **Los sábados ahora tienen otro sabor.**
Seamos honestos: hacer amigos de adulto es raro, incómodo y a veces un poco intimidante.
Por eso creamos un espacio donde todo fluye.
Sin presión. Sin caretas. Sin tener que “parecer interesante.”
Solo buena vibra, gente auténtica y conversaciones que valen la pena.
Vení, sentate, conocé a alguien nuevo, coqueteá si pinta 😉, y disfrutá ese momento en el que los desconocidos se convierten en compañía.
No hay consumo obligatorio — traé tu energía, tus ganas de conectar y dejá que la noche haga lo suyo.
Vas a encontrar:
✨ Caos lingüístico
✨ Choques culturales divertidos
✨ Risas reales
✨ Conexiones inesperadas
✨ Y ese famoso “¿cómo recién nos estamos conociendo?”
No es networking.
No es speed dating.
Esto es **Culture Shock Therapy** — donde la ciudad se mezcla con el mundo. 🌍⚡
Si estabas buscando tu tribu en Buenos Aires…
Acabás de encontrarla

Make Friends, Not Small Talk: Deep talks, Coffee, and Good Vibes✨
🇪🇸Español Abajo 👇
**☕️ Coffee Talk: Where Conversations Are Stronger Than the Coffee ☕️**
Had enough of awkward small talk and silent social gatherings? This is your chance to break free. Join us for a night of meaningful conversations about life, dreams, existential crises, and why we keep procrastinating our goals.
**🔹 What to expect?**
✔️ Thought-provoking questions (but not too deep, we promise).
✔️ Interesting people with zero interest in discussing traffic.
✔️ Interactive dynamics that push you out of your comfort zone—without feeling like a job interview.
If you're ready for an evening of deep conversations, great coffee, and a dash of sarcastic humor, save your spot before you regret it (again).
📍 **Where?** Diletto – Perón 4217 (because coffee without great conversations is just wasted caffeine).
💰 **How much?** $5,000 ARS / $5 USD (yes, genuine connections have a price, but they’re worth every cent).

**☕️Coffee Talk: Donde las Conversaciones Son Más Fuertes que el Café☕️**
Si ya tuviste suficiente de las mismas charlas de ascensor y los silencios incómodos en reuniones sociales, este es tu evento. Aquí venimos a hablar de todo lo que realmente importa: la vida, los sueños, las crisis existenciales y por qué seguimos procrastinando nuestras metas.
**🔹 ¿Qué puedes esperar?**
✔️ Preguntas que te harán pensar (pero no demasiado, prometemos).
✔️ Gente interesante con cero ganas de hablar del tráfico.
✔️ Dinámicas interactivas que te sacarán de tu zona de confort sin hacerte sentir en una entrevista de trabajo.
Si estás listo para una tarde de conversaciones profundas con café en mano y un toque de humor sarcástico, reserva tu lugar antes de que te arrepientas (otra vez).
📍 **¿Dónde?** Diletto – Perón 4217 (porque el café sin buenas conversaciones es solo cafeína desperdiciada).
💰 **¿Cuánto?** $5.000 ARS / $5 USD (sí, las conexiones genuinas tienen su precio, pero valen cada centavo).

**📦 WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?**
FTST is a one-of-a-kind social experience where strangers come together for meaningful, fun and deep conversation. It’s also a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!
Join us for games, talks, and connections with friends you haven’t met yet. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you've been in BA every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life then this is the place for you. 🙌
**📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?**
We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few fun games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups (of 3-4) and start with the conversation rounds. We'll have awesome question **cards** that will guide the flow of the conversation. You'll **be guided by an experienced host** (Elle, you'll love her!) who'll make sure everything goes smoothly. 🍭
**🕹 HOW TO JOIN?**
**[Take 1 minute to sign up 👈](https://luma.com/ftst1buenosaires)**

⏰ 3 hours of facilitated and curated activities
🙌🏽 Access to the Llamas in Buenos Aires Community on WhatsApp
👥 A space to meet new people in the least boring way possible
💛 Supporting our mission to spread human connection events around the world
*(🎫 we also cover those annoying **ticket fees**!)*

We host our events in awesome bars & parks across the city. *We only **reveal the location** upon confirmation (or 25 before if it's in a park).* This event will take place in a nice **park** in Palermo.
📣 **IMPORTANT**: An RSVP on Meetup does **NOT** **confirm** your spot. 🎟️
**💛 WHAT THEY SAY**
🗣 “This is the kind of activity **humanity needs every weekend**. Thank you for all.” - *Sonya*
🗣 “Great way to connect with people in a more meaningful way. Get to the heart of the matter, dive straight into what really counts!” - Matthias
🗣 “F\*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.” - Monika
🗣 “I loved F\*ck the Small Talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!” - Brenda
🗣 "It’s a wonderful experience, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - Sara

**🤓 FAQ**
**• Can I come alone?**
Of course, we encourage it :) 99% of people do!
**• I signed up but never got an invite. Why?**
We usually get a high volume of sign-ups yet we like to keep it cozy & only invite around 25-30 people. Please try again next time if you do not receive an invite - no hard feelings 💛
**• Why do you charge?**
We value our time and put a lot of love, planning, and effort into creating & designing these experiences. ♥️ This is our project/business and what we give to the world and we think everything should be a fair exchange! 🎈 However, money should never be the reason for people not to attend. If you can’t afford it send us a message!
**• Can I bring my pet llama?**
100% yes, any *well-behaved* pets are highly encouraged as long as you can still focus on connecting with the humans around you! Especially llamas. Please confirm with us beforehand.

Pop-up Book Club: A Streetcar Named Desire, by Tennessee Williams
Let’s meet and discuss whatever comes to mind about one of Tennesse Williams’ most famous plays.
DevOps Columbus January: Learn Infrastructure-as-Code Through Minecraft
## Details
\#\# Learn Infrastructure\-as\-Code \(the FUN Way\) — Through Minecraft 🎮☁️
**Joint Meetup: DevOps Columbus - Azure CBUS - Columbus HashiCorp User Group**
What if learning Terraform and Infrastructure-as-Code didn’t feel like a whitepaper… but more like a game?
Join us for a joint DevOps Columbus, Azure CBUS and Columbus HashiCorp User Group meetup where **Mark Tinderholt** \(Principal Architect\, Microsoft Azure \| HashiCorp Ambassador \| “The Azure Terraformer”\) shows how **Minecraft** can be used as a surprisingly powerful way to understand real-world Infrastructure-as-Code concepts.
In this session, Mark will demonstrate how Terraform and Azure can be used to provision, configure, and manage Minecraft servers—while teaching the same patterns you’d use for production cloud infrastructure.
\#\#\# What we’ll cover
* Infrastructure-as-Code fundamentals using **Terraform**
* Provisioning real infrastructure on **Azure**
* Applying **IaC best practices** (immutability, repeatability, versioning)
* How playful environments like Minecraft make complex concepts *click*
* Why learning through experimentation beats click-ops every time
\#\#\# Who should attend
* Developers, platform engineers, and cloud engineers
* Terraform users (new or experienced)
* Anyone curious about Infrastructure-as-Code but tired of boring examples
* Minecraft fans who want to see it used in a totally unexpected way
No prior Minecraft experience required—just curiosity and a willingness to learn infrastructure the fun way.
Come for the blocks, stay for the Terraform. 🧱➡️📐
