On se rencontre chaque mercredi pour parler français. Parmi nous, il y a des gens qui ont le français comme langue maternelle, et des gens qui aiment le français et le maîtrisent plus ou moins. On aime discuter et parler de tout et de rien, et on est toujours content de recevoir des gens qui sont de passage ou des nouvelles personnes qui veulent écouter, parler, pratiquer ou poser des questions. Cette semaine, on se retrouve dans un nouveau endroit pour tester, le Café Merkur, situé a proximité de la station U2 Rathaus, dans la Florianigasse 18. Le Café Merkur est un Café-Bistro bien aimable, avec une cuisine de plats legers de beaucoup de pays differents. La table est toujours gérée d'une façon très libre et relaxée, on se rencontre et on parle aux autres participants et participantes autour de nous.La table est toujours gerée d'une façon très libre et relaxée, on se rencontre et on parle aux autres participants et participantes autour de nous. NOTE: Si vous comptez venir, inscrivez-vous s'il vous plaît, pour qu'on puisse prévoir assez (mais pas trop non plus) d'espace au restaurant. Comme ça, on sera à l'aise et l'endroit qui nous accueille aussi. On commence à 18h30 , mais ce n'est pas un problème de rejoindre après. Normalement, il y a au moins une dizaine de personnes qui vient aux rencontres. Cette rencontre est aussi annoncée sur notre groupe facebook ("Vienna French Meetings") A mercredi alors!

Hi everyone! 🎶 If you’re a musician and play any musical instrument, you’re very welcome to join our warm and friendly music space in Vienna 🎹✨ 💎 Participation fee 10 € per person (cash) ⭐️This is a live offline meetup for people who enjoy music and want to share it in a relaxed, supportive atmosphere. This is not a concert and not a competition — no judging, no pressure. You can play a piece, try out something new, listen to others, or simply enjoy the music and good company 🎼 All levels are welcome — from beginners to more experienced musicians. People join for many reasons: • to play for a live audience without pressure 🎵 • to share a work in progress • to gently overcome stage fright • to get inspired by others • or simply to enjoy a musical evening together 😊 🕓 Event format To give everyone a fair chance, the first round includes one piece per performer, up to 8 minutes. If time allows, additional pieces may be played later 🎶 🎹 Instruments The main focus is piano, but other acoustic instruments are also welcome 🎻🎶

**How we play**? Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced Players are welcome. We play on two courts with 10 players maximum. **Price** * 20 € for 2 hours * I use the money to cover the costs for the court, balls and rackets. * You can pay via Revolut, PayPal, instant Bank Transfer or Cash. I prefer transfer over cash. **Equipment** * I provide balls (usually Bullpadel Next) * If you need a racket, you can rent it from me for 2 € (limited number available). You can also rent a racket from the venue for 4 € **Cancellation** * Please cancel at least 10h before the event, to give people on the wait list the chance to jump in. Otherwise a late cancellation fee of 10 € must be paid. * Cancel at least 26h before the event in case the wait list is empty. Otherwise a late cancellation fee will be charged * Late Cancellation fees will be donated to Médecins Sans Frontières (Ärzte ohne Grenzen). * I understand that sometimes unexpected things can come up. However, not showing up and failing to let me know is considered disrespectful and goes against the community spirit. People doing uncommented no-shows have to pay the full event fee. **Important** * Playing competitive is allowed (Smashing balls, hitting balls close to opponent player etc.) * We still value fair play and sportsmanship. * Having fun together is way more important as winning. **Other information** * We are respectful and warm with each other. Our cultural and professional background is diverse * The host or regular players can ask misbehaving players to step out from the court * The venue has changing rooms and showers free of charge (for the lockers you have to bring your own padlock) * If you have questions, you can send me a message any time. I speak german too.

There’s a feeling beyond words — the quiet certainty that you are safe, held, and exactly where you belong. In German, it’s called Geborgenheit. Geborgenheit — a German word with no perfect English translation — describes the deep feeling of being safe, warm, and truly at home in yourself or with others. It’s more than comfort. It’s trust. **It’s belonging.** It’s knowing you can simply be, without fear or pretense. Join us for an evening of open discussions, small group activities, and sharing experiences related to "belonging". ***Programme***: *1st hour* of the meet up conversation will be dedicated to soft introductions, easy flow conversations, settling in...: \- 5\-10 mins \- Greetings and Salutations:\-\) I will make sure to go around to introduce myself and greet you personally\, invite you in and make sure everyone is feeling comfortable \- 10 min guided gratitude breathwork \- 5\-7 min\- mindful body scan to release the day and be in the here and now \- 10\-15 min Nomad story by Asali \- 20\-25: invitation to choose a person/group sitting next to you\, across from you \(you choose each other\) and engage in a conversation about "belonging" **10-15 min break** for any hot or cold drink.

Past-era discoveries and open networking night in Bratislava, Slovakia, conveniently starting and ending at Vienna Main Station (Wien Hauptbahnhof). After arriving in Bratislava's Petržalka suburb by direct train, we'll first head to the corn fields near the Austrian border to scout hidden WW2 bunkers and an iron curtain memorial site. Underway, we'll also look for the now-defunct tracks of the old Viedenská električka tram which until 1935 hauled theatre-goers and coffee lovers all the way to Vienna downtown. After so much history, it's time for early dinner. Fast-forward to a local restaurant in Bratislava's quaint downtown with tasty, reasonably-priced Slovak food and beer. Full and satisfied, we'll continue on to the [International Night Bratislava](https://bratislava.ixpat.com/internationalnight) for networking, games and fun. Right after this social highlight, we'll hop on our train back to Vienna, arriving shortly before midnight. Total time: Half-day Language: English Bring: Valid Passport/Visa or EU-National ID Card (driver's license doesn't count as travel ID) Wear: Seasonal outfit, rain gear depending on weather **Value and booking** Price includes train roundtrip, local transit and friendly host.
