Moving to a new city is exciting at first — a fresh start, new opportunities, a new chapter. But once things settle, being new in town can feel lonely. You don’t know anyone yet, you’re unsure where to go to meet people, and everyone else seems to already have their circles. That’s where we come in. Our Fast Friending evenings are designed especially for those who are new in town and ready to build real friendships — creating welcoming spaces where conversations flow naturally and meaningful connections begin. **You will need to buy a ticket for attending -** [https://lux28thmarch.eventbrite.co.uk]( https://lux28thmarch.eventbrite.co.uk) \*You can use any debit or credit card to purchase your ticket at PayPal checkout.

*Apologies in advance for the excessive use of the word “rave” in this event.* Join us — with intensity and grace — for a hybrid evening that begins with reflection and ends in bass. From a Saturday night discussion about the rave scene to an actual one in the south of Luxembourg. You’re welcome to attend either one or both: **20:00 – 22:00 \| Book Discussion @ Creapelle** “We were one nation united by the groove.” In 1989, one rave changed Kirk Field’s life. It led him to become a “rave reporter” and witness the UK’s Summer of Love. We’ll dive into his book *Rave New World: Confessions of a Rave Reporter*, though you don’t need to have read the book... curiosity is enough 😎 You can also watch the documentary beforehand [HERE](https://youtu.be/A-XrlMpwEuM) **23:00 \| Do You Rave? @ Rockhal Club** Luxembourg may not be Berlin. But every now and then, she hosts amazing raves and this is one of them! Join me and Laureena — two passionate ravers — as we move from conversation to groove in *Luxembourg’s biggest hard techno rave!* Event info & tickets [HERE](https://rockhal.lu/shows/do-you-rave-march/) Oh! and a gently reminder of the rave essentials: - Black clothes - Black shades - Gum - Earplugs - An open mind - Good sleep (the real super drug😉)

Percival Everett writes a brilliant reimagining of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn told from the enslaved Jim's point of view. « When Jim overhears that he is about to be sold to a man in New Orleans, separated from his wife and daughter forever, he runs away until he can formulate a plan. Meanwhile, Huck has faked his own death to escape his violent father. As all readers of American literature know, thus begins the dangerous and transcendent journey by raft down the Mississippi River toward the elusive and unreliable promise of the Free States and beyond. » While known as "Jim" to his enslavers, James is a self-educated, articulate man who reclaims his name, "James". He is depicted as simple, credulous, and superstitious, but secretly more literate and erudite than most of the white people around him. 💡the book is available in Luxembourg librairies

Hello Friends! There is a forest in the north of Luxembourg, where at this time of the year millions of wild daffodils are blooming. It's an incredible view, almost impossible to capture in a photo. CFL is playing with us these days; there is either "Schienenersatzverkehr" between Luxembourg and Echternach or between Echternach and Wilwerwiltz. The replacement bus takes twice as long as we would need by car, that's why it is a full "car pool exercise" this time. We will need carpooling anyway if we want to leave the country once in a while, so let's get used to it! We will start in Lellingen, and we will partially follow the "Via Botanica", which is dedicated to the daffodils that grow only in that area in such large numbers. As usual, I've optimized the path a bit in terms of the distance to reach the picnic spot after about 7km. The weather will not be that great, no rain, but way too cold for a long picnic, so we will leave before we get too cold. We will then go back across the same yellow paradise and enjoy the view again, from a different perspective, then all the way down back to Lellingen. **Meeting Point:** We will meet at the start of the "Eisleck pad Lellingen". https://maps.app.goo.gl/irrXoCJgz9n9KmAr8 **Car Pool:** Please try to get in the carpool, everyone. https://groupcarpool.com/t/hryx9p Passengers may bring a pair of clean shoes for the return, although it's not expected to be extremely muddy this time. But you never know, you may want to be allowed to be a passenger with the same driver again in the future :) Drivers: You may need to plan 5-10 minutes for parking; it's a tiny village. **Public Transport:** As a fall-back in case you can't get a seat in a car, you can take Bus L11, leaving at 8:44 from "Gare Rocade, Quai 6" (back side of the Gare, near "Rotondes"). You will arrive in Ettelbrück at 09:58, then take the train RE 3809 towards "Troisvierges". You need to get off at Wilwerwiltz (10:34), then go left, cross the railroads, cross the river, and find the "Autopedestre", following it clockwise (going left) until Lellingen. This will take you less than 20 minutes, and you will meet the rest of the group there. **Disclaimer:** The hike is at your own risk, and please make sure to wear proper shoes and bring some water for yourself! Looking forward to hiking with you! Jens.

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!

...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'"

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

Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations. 
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that. We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus. 
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn. 
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play. 
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders… 
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords… 
IMPORTANT: 
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for. 
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
