(English below) L’idée de nos « Cafés Rencontres » est de créer un espace convivial où les personnes intéressées par notre projet d’habitat groupé, ainsi que quelques membres actuels, se retrouvent dans un bar autour d’un verre pour faire connaissance et échanger. C’est l’occasion idéale pour poser toutes vos questions et vous faire une idée de ce qu’est VoltaXL. Nous nous voyons dans "Ginette Cimix". Il y aura une table réservée pour "VoltaXL". Le bar étant à proximité de notre site, nous pourrons faire une **petite visite improvisée**. Bien évidemment, c’est sans engagement et ouvert à tout le monde. (Une inscription n’est pas nécessaire, mais elle nous aiderait à mieux organiser l’événement.)

**Gathering in community is an essential part of being human.** When we sing, share, play, dance, hold rituals, eat together… We move beyond dogma. The Gathering is about the simple yet radical choice to gently ease open our hearts and trust the voice of love to guide the way. * REGISTER HERE: https://forms.gle/Szo2ffdEs5ti147P9 Many of us have become isolated in our spiritual journeys, atomised by our individual interests, unaware of the mycelial network that connects us and the abundance of resources available to help us flourish. **The Gathering is about remembering the sacredness of life, our belonging in a wider community and that our soul-given gifts are designed to be lived and shared.** The Gathering takes place in Brussels once or twice a month on a Sunday afternoon. Starting with a **singing circle** and a moment of **contemplation**, participants then choose between **practices exploring different aspects of connection - to self, to other, and to life**. We finish the afternoon together with a **potluck meal**. * REGISTER HERE: https://forms.gle/Szo2ffdEs5ti147P9 * VISIT THE WEBSITE FOR MORE INFO >>> https://bit.ly/4iFjoiU **\*\~\*\~\*\~\*\~\*\~PRACTICAL INFO\~\*\~\*\~\*\~\*\~\*** **{ TIMING }** * \~ Please arrive between 13:45-14:15 so we can start together. The doors will close promptly at 14:15. * \~ The circle and activities will last until 18:00, so please make sure you are able to be present until then. * \~ Everyone is welcome to stay afterwards to share food until 19:00. **{ BRING }** * \~ a meditation cushion or a pillow (there is nothing provided in the space!) * \~ your water bottle * \~ clothes you can move comfortably in * \~ a blanket, warm socks and/or sweater (optional, if you easily get cold) * \~ a yoga mat (optional, for extra cushioning) * \~ food to share (optional, for potluck) **{ ACCESSIBILITY }** * \~ The event will be mainly in English, but some practices may be proposed in other languages. * \~ Children are very welcome! There will be at least one children-friendly practice available. * \~ The space is wheelchair-accessible, although for practical reasons please indicate it on the registration form. **{ GIFT MODEL }** The Gathering is experimenting with a gift model, meaning that everyone is invited to contribute as they can. Gifts can take many different forms. Time, energy, experience, food, knowledge, wealth, skills, creativity, love… This does not mean that money is ignored. There are costs associated with renting the space and money is needed in order to further develop the project. **We will ask participants during the afternoon to contribute consciously and according to their means. However, money should not prevent anyone who wants to join, to be able to join.** How would you like to contribute? There are infinite ways to share your gifts, from helping with the costs, to helping with the set up, to guiding a practice, to cooking a group meal... And if you don’t feel like you are able to contribute anything right now, you are still welcome. * REGISTER HERE: https://forms.gle/Szo2ffdEs5ti147P9 * VISIT THE WEBSITE FOR MORE INFO >>> https://bit.ly/4iFjoiU

Most of us only know ***the Belgian sea side*** from being there in summertime when it’s full of tourists, noisy teracces, ice cream vendors,… But have you ever seen it in winter where it looks somewhat different ? Have you discovered ***the peacefull environment***, did you feel the ***winter wind in your face*** and have you walked the ***empty beaches*** ? These will be your companions for this trip and if we ***are lucky we may even see seals lying on the beach***. For this hike we ***mostly follow the GR 5A- Streek GR Kust*** and walk through a landscape where sea, beach, dunes and forests constantly alternate. After the hike we will continue our good habit of ***taking a nice drink/ice cream/snack in a local pub in Blankenberge*** before returning to Brussels. ***Please don't forget to pay Maikel a drink :-)*** We will walk at an ***average speed of 5km/h***. We will walk both on ***paved and unpaved roads***. ***I’ve never walked this road before***, so it’s possible that there are some mistakes in the planning. ●●***Meeting point*** We meet at ***08h40 in front of the Starbucks in Brussels Central***. Our train (IC 530 - Oostende) leaves at ***08h56 from platform 2.*** We arrive at our ***destination Oostende at 10h29*** and start our hike to Blankenberge. ●● ***Train tickets*** \- single ticket Brussels to Oostende \(14\,60 € weekend / 8\,8 € with train card\+\) \- single ticket Blankenberge to Brussels \(14\,10 € weekend / 8\,4 € with train card\+\) ●● ***Train back to Brussels*** There is a train from Blankenberge to Brussels every hour at ***XX:03*** **LAST TRAIN = 22h02** ●● **Specifics** distance: \~ 24 km elevation gain: \~ 127 m net walking time ***(breaks are not included here):*** \~ 5h00 level: ***easy - open for everyone*** ***In the unlikely case of too bad weather we may cancel a hike even few hours before the event. If this must happen, we will of course update the Meetup website and send out an email to those registered. So it’s important to have access to either the Meetup.com website and/or your emails.*** ***●● What to bring*** \- warm comfortable hiking clothes – waterproof hiking shoes \- extra socks to change \+ compeed for blisters \- enough water or warm drinks and food for the breaks \- sun protection oil\, a hat and sunglasses OR a raincoat (please consult the weather forcast on www.meteo.be ) \- a flashlight and a yellow/orange safety vest for when it gets dark ***\- some money to pay Maikel a drink ;\-\)*** ***●● Basic rules*** Please RSVP only ***if you really intend to come***.

Passing through downtown the route runs alongside Huntington Park baseball stadium, Nationwide Arena hockey stadium, near North Market (worth a stop if you enjoy markets with lots of tasty treats), within a few blocks of the state capitol, convention center, art museum, center of science and industry, several first-class hotels, and much more (see Points of Interest list below). Easily, anywhere along the way, the tour can be detoured to nearby points of interest. This smart-guided route comes with CycleNuts' 50% downhill guarantee. Sweating is optional.

All bikes are appropriate for this smart-guided tour (even a single-speed if you do not mind walking your bike up the spots mentioned). The route is shaded about 50% of the way. Sweating is optional - you set your pace, starting time, and touring agenda. Points of interest: COSI Scioto River North Market German Village The Scioto Mile Brewery District Huntington Park Nationwide Arena Columbus Union Station Arch Greater Columbus Convention Center **The Meetup plan = Show up, Rally with whoever else shows up, and Roll following the smart-guided instructions.** This is a smart guided tour route that can be ridden any day or time, solo or with others.

Have fun! ***This is a repeating event on the calendar***\*, but the date and time do not necessarily need to be what is posted. **If you are interested in riding with a group, then simply RSVP and leave a message in the comment section** giving the date and time you would like others to join you. If you are interested in riding by yourself or with your private group of friends, then simply do it.\* ***The mission of this format is to create a catalog*** *of free group tour routes available for CycleNuts to ride as a group, or solo, in an area spanning several states. **The goal is to get people out cycling** either in groups or solo. **The vision is a cycling community with resources** available for bike tours, bike talk, and a format for lives experienced at the speed of bike.*
