Small curated movie nights in a hidden garden in Ixelles, next to Place Flagey. A mix of: * **cult classics** * **recent movies** * **international cinema** * **comedy nights** * **karaoke & dubbing chaos nights** * **comfort food and summer vibes** **This is not a giant public Meetup** where 40 strangers stand awkwardly around overpriced drinks pretending networking is fun. Humanity already suffered enough. Our idea is simple: we gather in a private home and transform the courtyard into a small outdoor cinema. Sometimes we cook together before the movie: Italian, Thai, Lebanese, Japanese, Balkan, Greek, Latin American street food etc. Sometimes people simply grab pizza from the excellent pizzeria next door and join the screening. Food is intentionally relaxed: bowls, finger food, street food, popcorn, snacks, comfort food. **Some nights are more gourmet.** Some are glorified pizza-and-movie nights. Both are valid forms of civilization **;-)** ## **What makes this different** The group is i**ntentionally small**: usually 6 to 8 people maximum. **People are introduced properly.** Nobody gets abandoned in a corner. The atmosphere stays human, social and safe. **No heavy drinking.** **No creepy behavior.** No random people showing up uninvited. Smoking is allowed because is outside in the courtyard and occasionally we may have **hookah nights** depending on the movie/theme. ## **Typical evenings** * Wong Kar-wai + Asian comfort food * Spaghetti western + Italian street food * Anime + sushi night * Greek cinema + mezze * Balkan chaos cinema + burek * Cult movie dubbing nights where people voice scenes live karaoke-style Yes, this is a real thing now apparently. ## **Important** Because Meetups and public internet are full of bots, spam accounts and socially radioactive individuals, **we do NOT post the exact address publicly.** To join: scan the QR code on the image and request access to the private WhatsApp group or send me a DM. From there: * we announce movies * vote on menus * organize cooking nights * coordinate places **If you are new in Brussels, introverted, traveling, recently arrived, or simply tired of giant impersonal events, this may be your thing.**

If you have a ball, please bring it... Let's gather at the Parc du Cinquantenaire close to the Tour de Tournai (https://goo.gl/maps/RsxFtTJydq92) and organize a *low-level* football match on the grass. Unless it rains badly as we're about to play, the game is on. Players of any age, weight, sex and size are allowed. Come as you are, at any time after 4pm. IMPORTANT REMINDER -- As Shitty Players, we don't bite or growl when someone misses the ball. We don't do penalties or yellow cards because we're so gentle we don't need them. We vaguely know of the existence of other rules like off-side but we'd rather ignore them than argue about them. We may or may not keep track of the score: this is a game where everyone wins. To help build the Team, come with 2 t-shirts white and black (or similar colors: light grey and dark blue etc). Beer session will follow on the grass, for those who survive till the end.

🌍 Open Discussion Meetup: Understanding Gen Z For our next meetup, we’re opening the conversation beyond books and diving into a broader discussion about Gen Z, the generation shaping culture, identity, work, relationships, politics, technology, and social life in rapidly changing times. How does Gen Z view the world differently? What pressures are young people facing today? How are social media, mental health, identity, dating, work expectations, and global uncertainty shaping an entire generation? Rather than a formal debate, this will be an open, thoughtful, and respectful exchange of ideas and experiences. The goal is not to “win” discussions, but to better understand the realities, frustrations, hopes, and contradictions surrounding Gen Z today. Whether you’re Gen Z yourself, a parent, teacher, researcher, or simply curious about generational change, you’re very welcome to join. 📅 Date: Saturday, 13 June ⏰ Time: 11:30 📍 Venue: Carpe Diem, Avenue de Tervuren 13, 1040 Brussels Expect an engaging and relaxed conversation over coffee, with people from different backgrounds and perspectives. As always, those who wish can stay for lunch afterwards. 🏡 Meetup Ground Rules 1️⃣ Everyone is welcome, regardless of background or generation 2️⃣ We listen to understand, not to win 3️⃣ Curiosity, respect, and openness come first Looking forward to another lively and meaningful exchange of ideas. 📞 Questions: 0474.60.83.70

**Get your tickets here: https://www.sundayvacations.com/event-list** **Waterfalls, Panoramic Viewpoints & Hidden Ardennes Treasures** **Escape Brussels and discover one of the most spectacular hiking routes in Belgium.** Join Sunday Vacations for a full-day hiking adventure through the legendary Ninglinspo Valley, often considered one of the most beautiful natural areas in Belgium. Expect cascading waterfalls, crystal-clear river pools, dramatic forest trails, panoramic viewpoints, rugged Ardennes landscapes, and plenty of opportunities to connect with fellow explorers. This is not a casual stroll. It's a rewarding and sporty hike designed for people who love nature, movement, and discovering extraordinary places alongside a welcoming international community. Whether you're new to Brussels, an expat looking to meet like-minded people, or simply searching for an unforgettable Sunday outdoors, this hike offers the perfect mix of adventure, scenery, and connection. **🌿 Curated Experience** **Experience Overview** The Ninglinspo is Belgium's only mountain river, carving its way through a wild valley filled with waterfalls, natural pools, wooden footbridges, rocky trails, and breathtaking viewpoints. Throughout the day, we'll follow the river upstream, climb towards spectacular panoramas overlooking the Ardennes, discover historic landmarks including the ruins of a medieval castle, and enjoy some of the most photogenic landscapes Belgium has to offer. Along the way, we'll share conversations, picnic together, and create new memories with a community of international professionals, expats, locals, and outdoor enthusiasts. People often join these experiences not only for the destination but for the people they meet along the way. Community and meaningful social connection remain among the strongest motivations for joining outdoor events. **Highlights** ✨ The famous Ninglinspo waterfalls ✨ Belgium's only mountain river ✨ Natural pools and forest streams ✨ Panoramic viewpoints over the Amblève Valley ✨ The spectacular Drouet viewpoint ✨ The historic ruins of Château de Montjardin ✨ Dense Ardennes forests ✨ Scenic wooden bridges and rocky paths ✨ Community picnic surrounded by nature ✨ International and welcoming atmosphere ✨ Perfect for solo joiners ✨ Nearly 19 km of adventure **Plan / Itinerary** **07:45 – Meet at Brussels Central Station** Meet the group, collect train tickets if applicable, and start the journey together. **10:00 – Arrival in Aywaille** Short coffee stop and welcome briefing. **10:10 – Start of the Hike** Distance: 18.9 km Difficulty: Moderate to Sporty Elevation: Approx. 600m+ Expected hiking time: 5.5 to 6.5 hours **Stage 1: The Ninglinspo Valley** We begin by following the famous Ninglinspo River through one of Belgium's most spectacular natural landscapes.

From the Drouet viewpoint, the Ardennes unfold beneath us with stunning views across forests, valleys, and rolling hills. A perfect moment for photos and a well-earned break. **Stage 3: Château de Montjardin** Continuing along scenic trails, we'll reach the remains of the medieval Château de Montjardin. Surrounded by forest and history, this hidden site offers a glimpse into the region's past and provides a unique atmosphere rarely found on Belgian hikes. **Stage 4: Picnic in Nature** We'll stop for a relaxed picnic lunch at one of the scenic viewpoints or forest clearings along the route. Bring your own lunch and enjoy the views while getting to know fellow participants. **Stage 5: Return Through the Ardennes** Our return route follows the valley back towards Aywaille, with small variations where possible to discover additional viewpoints and quieter sections of trail. The afternoon light often transforms the valley, creating entirely different perspectives from those seen in the morning. **17:00 – Return to Aywaille** Optional social stop on a terrace for drinks and well-deserved relaxation. **17:55 – Return Train to Brussels** Expected arrival in Brussels early evening. **Meeting Point** 📍 Brussels Central Station Exact meeting location shared with registered participants.

**The event has been canceled.** *Note: this is a demonstration event only, you **will not** shoot you own images. However, if you bring your camera we can test it for compatibility with the studio lights.* Bondage elements can add an extra layer of emotion and artistry to your images. Sample images on the internet are however dominated by BDSM style shots that are often sexualized and emphasize the model being in distress. In this demonstration Rachel and I show ways to use bondage elements in an artistic way. We explore the types of accessories that work best in artistic images and the best way to photograph them. Our model is Rachel Adams, an internationally known fetish model with many years of experience in this genre.
