Day Trip Announcement: Zurich HB to Kandersteg + Oeschinen Lake Hike Description of walk: Join us for a scenic day trip from Zurich HB to Kandersteg on Sunday, 29 March 2026. We will take the 08:32 IC1 train from platform 32, traveling in the direction of Genève-Aéroport, and arrive in Kandersteg at 10:40. The total train journey is 2 hours 8 minutes. From Kandersteg, we will continue with a beautiful hike around Oeschinen Lake, following a circular route. The walk offers classic alpine scenery, with lake views, mountain surroundings, and a varied route that makes it ideal for a full outdoor day. There is train connection from Kandersteg everyhour in direction to Bern. The idea is to leave back from Kandersteg around 5 pm but it can be discussed the day of the hike. Please note: Each participant is responsible for themselves during the hike.

(Because message in a WhatsApp channel can be read by a new member only 30 days before he joins. But you can already enter the corresponding WhatsApp group) If you are concerned about privacy, only the admin of a WhatsApp channel can see who has voted in a poll (unlike a WhatsApp group). Please sign up only when you are certain! You can also register through Meetup, as it helps build momentum; however, I rely only on the number of people who signed up through the WhatsApp survey.

**Brunch • Beats • Rooftop Vibes** Sundays in Zurich deserve a better soundtrack. On **Sunday, March 29**, we’re heading up to the rooftop terrace of **Hiltl Dachterrasse** for a special **Rooftop Sunday Social** – where brunch culture meets house music and great company. From **10:00 to 14:30**, the legendary rooftop of Hiltl turns into a daytime playground with brunch, drinks, sunshine, and electronic beats. Think of it as the Sunday version of the new **coffee rave trend** — relaxed, social, and full of energy, just earlier in the day and with amazing views over Zurich. **Zurich Together will have its own table**, so our crowd can start the day together, grab brunch, and warm up with familiar faces. From there, you can stay with the group or mingle with the wider party crowd on the terrace and dancefloor. Expect a fun mix of locals and internationals, open-minded people between **18 and 45**, and the kind of atmosphere where conversations start easily and Sundays suddenly become much more exciting. Sunlight, good music, brunch plates, day drinks, and a rooftop dancefloor — not a bad way to start the day. ☀️ **What to expect** • Rooftop brunch with beautiful city views • House music & sunny daytime vibes • Zurich Together table to meet our crowd • Social atmosphere – easy to meet new people • Dancing, drinks, and brunch on the terrace 🎟 **Tickets** Use our **15% discount code**: **zrhtogether26** Get tickets here: [https://tickets.brunch-party.ch/events/brunch-party-hiltl-dachterrasse](https://tickets.brunch-party.ch/events/brunch-party-hiltl-dachterrasse) Come solo or bring friends — either way, it’s the kind of Sunday where breakfast meets bassline. **Brunch. Beats. Rooftop.** Please note that tickets are **non-refundable**, but you are welcome to **transfer or sell your ticket to another person** if you’re unable to attend.

Viele Menschen kennen diesen Zustand: Eine innere Anspannung, die immer wieder da ist. Man funktioniert, denkt nach, hält durch. Und trotzdem bleibt im Hintergrund ein Druck. Oft versucht man, das zu verstehen, zu analysieren oder irgendwie in den Griff zu bekommen. In dieser Samstagsgruppe geht es nicht darum, noch mehr zu erklären oder sich weiter anzustrengen. Wir arbeiten auf einer Ebene, die dem Denken vorausgeht. Dort, wo innere Anspannung entsteht – und wo sie sich auch wieder verändern kann. Was dabei geschieht, lässt sich schwer in Worte fassen. Aber es lässt sich erfahren. Oft leise. Oft überraschend deutlich entlastend. 👉 **Ein kurzes Video gibt einen Einblick in diese Arbeit:** [Infos](https://youtu.be/D1ak1AxhSYA) Weitere Informationen: 🌐 [Webseite](www.selbstwert-trainer.ch) Du musst nichts vorbereiten. Nichts erzählen. Nichts leisten. Du darfst einfach da sein und schauen, was sich zeigt. 📍 Praxis Ruoss Stampfli, Else Züblin-Strasse 15, 8047 Zürich 🕒 Samstag, 10:00–12:00 Uhr 💰 Kollekte 📩 Anmeldung per WhatsApp: **076 419 25 72**

Join us as we get together for a Discount Tuesday / Choose Your Movie event to see your choice of two great films! Option 1 is the dark comedy/drama based on a true story TOW! The film stars Rose Byrne as a homeless Seattle woman how battles a towing company. Option 2 is the off-the-rails, over-the-top, action-comedy-horror THEY WILL KILL YOU! The film stars Zazie Beetz as a woman who answers a help wanted ad to be a housekeeper in a mysterious New York City high-rise not knowing its mysterious past! Here are details, trailers and our plan for this event: TOW: This dark comedy/drama is based on a true story and follows a homeless Seattle woman who fights her way out of "tow-company hell" to reclaim the car that had held her life together after receiving a tow bill for $21,634. The film stars Rose Byrne, Ariana DeBose, Demi Lovato, Octavia Spencer, Dominic Sessa, Elsie Fisher and Simon Rex! The film premiered to solid reviews at last year’s Tribeca Film Festival where critics declared, “TOW is a winner!” It’s “a story of perseverance, heart, and real fight, the kind of small human story we see less frequently these days, but need now more than ever.” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdkpcsuPAhA THEY WILL KILL YOU: A woman takes a job as a housekeeper in a NYC high-rise, unaware of the building's history of disappearances. She soon realizes the community is shrouded in mystery. The film is directed by Kirill Sokolov and Zadie Beetz, Myha'la, Paterson Joseph, Tom Felton, Heather Graham, and Patricia Arquette. The film is being released immediately following its premiere at this year’s SXSW Festival earlier this month. Early reviews say it’s “an adrenaline rush of action-packed fights, tons of blood and gore and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments” and a movie that’s “unafraid to march to its own campy, violent, and clever little drummer!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYqQPiXpi4w PLAN: Not exactly a “Choose Your Movie” event, more like an early show and a late one (or both if you’re feeling sparky)! \* If you’d like to see TOW, please purchase your ticket for the 5:00pm showing and meet in the upstairs lobby between 4:40 and 4:50pm! \* If you plan to see THEY WILL KILL YOU, please purchase your ticket for the 7:45pm showing and meet in the upstairs lobby between 7:25 and 7:35pm! \* Tickets for both films on sale now and advance purchase is advised! Tickets just $5.00 ($6.50 after online fees when purchased via the GFC website). Once you have yours, please list your movie of choice and seat number in the Comments section of this event. \* Also, as a reminder, close, convenient parking available in the nearby garage (Between 9th and 11th, just off High) and just $2 when you have your ticket validated at the theater! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

This 1967 film is widely regarded as one of the best American movies ever made. Now remembered almost as much for its Simon and Garfunkel music as its deadpan comedy and being the role that established Dustin Hoffman as the hottest actor in Hollywood. It became a cultural icon for capturing the spirit of 60s angst of a young man on the make, while garnering a batch of Oscar nominations. After watching the movie on your own, join us to relive (or experience!) those feelings at our discussion.

How do we recover from having had a toxic or narcissistic ex? How do we move on from the past, especially something as traumatic as a divorce or breakup? How do we avoid anxiety and depression? How do we have more self esteem? In this meeting, you will learn the mental health secrets to help you quickly get over the past and heal your mind. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics & Scientology life improvement center.

Join us as we get together for an Arthouse Movie Friday event to see the A24 dark comedy /romance / psychological-thriller, THE DRAMA! The film stars Zendaya and Robert Pattinson as a happily engaged couple whose relationship is challenged when one discovers unsettling truths about the other. Here are details, a trailer and our plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: The film follows a happily engaged couple whose relationship is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails. The film comes from A24, is written/directed by Kristoffer Borgli stars Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Mamoudou Athie, Alana Haim, Hailey Gates and Zoë Winters. QUICK WORD OF WARNING: The film hasn’t screened for critics yet and most of the details are being kept tightly under wraps. But, early buzz (possibly promotional) says the film is a brilliant psychological thriller/romance but also provocative, twisty and some contains occasional uncomfortable viewing! I love the cast and trailer, so look forward to seeing for ourselves! ZENDAYA-PATTINSON TRIFECTA CHALLENGE: Robert Pattinson and Zendaya will star in THREE movies together this year, including THE DRAMA, Christopher Nolan’s THE ODYSSEY this Summer and Denis Villeneuve’s DUNE: PART THREE at Christmas! TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk) PLAN: We’ll plan for 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime! Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater but early arrival is advised. Possibly post-movie get-together at the nearby Rusty Bucket! Complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. Take care and look forward to seeing you there, Dan

...and speaking of breakthrough roles: who can forget the first time we saw Tom Cruise singing Bob Seeger in his underwear? Often considered an updated 1983 version of The Graduate, the movie sparkles with memorable lines and original music. I only regret that I was never told that "Princeton could use someone like Bob..." See the movie first and join us for some "Cruisin'"
