Hello friends, It feels like "*the last hike of this year*" to me, because I'm planning it now, but in fact it will be the first hike of the year 2026, our traditional *"Happy New Year Hangover Hike"* 💫🧨✨🚀 We went the first time on 1st of January in 2020, we skipped it during the "Corona Winter" 2020/2021, resuming in 2022, which makes this the 6th time! Let me know when we meet, how many of these you attended! Let's grab some fresh air after our New Year's parties, let's wish each other a happy New Year, and let's make sure that our alcohol level goes down more slowly by consuming our leftover alcohol from last night 🤪 If there is no concept of "leftover alcohol" in your mindset, you might want to buy an extra bottle.🍾 Otherwise, feel free to bring whatever you like! 🍪🥮🍫 We will meet at the tram/bus station *"Hamilius"* at 12:00 and start the hike around 12:15. **I strongly encourage everyone to get there by public transport!** There are buses all over the place, you can take the tram or bus to *"Hamilius"* or take a bus to *"Monterey"* or *"Badanstalt";* both are within 5 minutes of walking distance 🚎🚌 I hope that everyone will be in a good mood and that you can avoid driving. There will be Glühwein, cremant, and wine; sometimes in the past, we even had champagne!🍷🥂🍾 **Itinerary:** We will walk down to Grund and Clausen, a bit towards Neudorf, then up onto the Kirchberg plateau, where I will try to discover a new area 🥾🥾 Last year, I didn't find the path, because the environment was very different in reality than it looked on the map. This time I'm more confident, and if we find it, there will be some great views across Clausen towards the city. Whether we find it or not, our next stop will be on the Kirchberg Plateau, another great view from there. Finally, we will traverse Pfaffenthal, where we are trying to find out how many hiking groups will fit into the Pfaffenthal elevator. My bet: Exactly one! Our walk will end at the Christmas market *"Wanterpark"* on the *"Kinnekswiss*". There are many options for great food and drinks, and there is a protected space where we can sit without getting cold 🍺🍷🧆🍤🥘🍗🌭🍺 The planned location for our break is the newly discovered area on the Weimershof side of the Kirchberg Plateau, if the intensity and direction of the wind allow for it. Otherwise, we continue to Kirchberg and hide in the fortifications 🏰 There, we can share our leftover Christmas cookies and drinks from the New Year parties. I will bring Glühwein and cremant and I count on you, as usual, for additional supplies! 🥂🍾🍷🍪🥮🍫🥂 The hike is at your own risk, and everyone is responsible for his/her own safety! Looking forward to hiking with you! Jens

Hello Friends! This will be the last time I'll drag you to a Christmas Market this winter, I promise! But the Austrian "Spinat Knödel" are too good, I want them one more time. If you never tried, I highly recommend, and you know what? Let me buy one for everyone who completed all the hikes of 2026! It's a different path this time again, we did parts of it already in the past, but not the whole thing end to end. Starting from Howald via Hesperange and Pulvermühl, we go back to the city, ending up at the "Wantermaart" around "Gelle Fra". Depending on the weather, our mood, and physical condition, we can do a shortcut in the end, not descending to Grund and not climbing the famous 68 steps from the Petrusse valley to place de constitution. And if someone is totally exhausted, there's an "emergency exit" in Bonnevoie/Hamm, you can take bus 9 from "Kofferfabrik" to Hamilius and wait on the Christmas market until the group arrives. We will take a few short breaks to have a sip of water or munch on a snack, but there will be no lunch break, as we plan to enjoy the food and drinks at the Christmas market after the hike, such as Bratwurst, Glühwein, Gromperekichelcher, and - of course - Spinatknödel!!! **Meeting Point:** We will meet at the tram stop "Scillas" in Howald. There are not many trains going south, but a tram every few minutes. https://maps.app.goo.gl/c2A9jyEHhWE9XNqRA If you happen to take a train to Howald from the south, like RB 6785, leaving Esch at 10:02, Schifflange at 10:06, the Howald tram station is just around the corner from Howald Gare. This is not a loop; we will start in Howald and end in the city center. Hamilius tram stop is 2 minutes from the Christmas market, you can get back there easily, in the unlikely event that you came by car and left it in Howald. Looking forward to having the last Glühwein of the season with you! (at least on a Christmas market, there might be Glühwein on some hikes again) Jens.

Vendredi 2. janvier à 18:30 - Dimanche 4. janvier 2026 à 17:00 CID Fraen an Gender, Luxembourg Tout le monde a une histoire à raconter. Mais raconter des histoires personnelles ne vient pas naturellement à tout le monde. Dans cet atelier en trois parties destiné aux adultes, vous apprendrez à raconter une histoire riche et personnelle et à emmener votre public dans votre sillage. **Quand a-t-il lieu ?** L'atelier de trois jours se déroule aux dates suivantes : **Vendredi 2 janvier, de 18 h 30 à 21 h** **13h00-19h00 le samedi 3 janvier** **13h00-17h00 le dimanche 4 janvier** **Afin de tirer le meilleur parti de l'atelier, je recommande vivement aux participants d'assister aux trois journées.** Le dernier jour, chacun aura la possibilité de raconter son histoire devant le groupe, s'il le souhaite. Le prix de participation comprend le thé et le café. Vous pouvez également apporter votre propre nourriture et des pauses rafraîchissements seront prévues pendant les trois jours. En raison du nombre de places limité, l'inscription préalable est obligatoire. [Acheter un ticket](https://fienta.com/fr/master-the-art-of-live-storytelling-3-day-course-janvier2026-156097) **Qu'est-ce que le storytelling ?** Le storytelling est une activité sociale et culturelle qui consiste à partager des histoires, parfois avec de l'improvisation, des effets théâtraux ou des embellissements. Chaque culture a ses propres histoires ou récits, qui sont partagés à des fins de divertissement, d'éducation, de préservation culturelle ou d'inculcation de valeurs morales. Si vous découvrez le storytelling, je vous recommande de regarder Mike Birbiglia et The Moth Hour sur Youtube pour comprendre notre définition du storytelling en direct. **Qu'est-ce que le storytelling n'est pas ?** Dans le cadre de cet atelier, nous ne lirons pas de textes écrits à haute voix, même si l'atelier implique de l'écriture. Le storytelling dans cet atelier n'est pas une forme de thérapie, même si nous examinerons nos récits personnels afin d'en extraire des histoires authentiques à partager. **Que dois-je apporter ?** Veuillez apporter un cahier et un stylo. Vous n'avez pas besoin de venir avec une histoire en tête. Je vous fournirai une histoire. Au cours des trois jours, je vous guiderai pas à pas à travers le processus de reformulation d'une histoire existante, de recherche de votre propre histoire et d'identification du message. Il y aura également de nombreux jeux et travaux de groupe, il est donc essentiel que les participants puissent assister aux trois sessions. **La formatrice** [Jess Bauldry](https://www.jessbauldry.eu/) est journaliste, écrivaine et artiste de stand-up. Elle est titulaire d'une maîtrise en écriture créative de l'université de Hull et a étudié l'art du storytelling à Mezrab. De nationalité britannique et luxembourgeoise, elle a cofondé le festival de comédie féministe Festrogen et fait partie du collectif de comédie luxembourgeois Frilly Curtains Comedy. Ces deux collectifs organisent des événements de storytelling. Cet atelier est organisé avec le généreux soutien de Cid Fraen an Gender.

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).
