The week feels endless and you can’t see the finish line? Friday blues hitting you hard? Come take a break with us and shake off the gloom of everyday life! **On the program:** chatting over a drink 🍹 – or two – to get to know each other, social games… And if you want to practice your English (or any other language), don’t hesitate! Many internationals will be there, since we also meet to encourage cultural and language exchanges. An icebreaker game 🧊 is suggested to meet more people – just ask the organizer. We’ll be a big group, often more than fifty people, so the idea is to talk to everyone – that’s the Friday concept, with the app :) Tall, short, slim, curvy, old, young, beautiful, not-so-beautiful – come as you are, we’ll welcome you with open arms. Two key words: friendliness and curiosity. Come at the time that suits you, but the earlier you arrive, the more you enjoy the vibe! **Practical info:** 🕖 From 9pm until late into the night 💸 Free with the Socializus pass! 📲 WhatsApp for quick info: [https://chat.whatsapp.com/ITesisMThOFAyNRUJ6uECN](https://chat.whatsapp.com/ITesisMThOFAyNRUJ6uECN) **How to join:** * Check the exact address with the free app and free pass: [www.socializus.org](http://www.socializus.org/) * Or support the association with an annual membership card here: [https://www.placeminute.com/event/afterwork/apero-linguistique-dans-un-bar-secret,36046.html](https://www.placeminute.com/event/afterwork/apero-linguistique-dans-un-bar-secret,36046.html) **Stay connected:** 🔹 Meetup – [https://www.meetup.com/internationals-events-paris/](https://www.meetup.com/afterwork-paris/) 🔹 WhatsApp (info & reminders): [https://chat.whatsapp.com/ITesisMThOFAyNRUJ6uECN](https://chat.whatsapp.com/ITesisMThOFAyNRUJ6uECN) (Turn on “Receive all” so you don’t miss anything!) 🔹 Facebook Group – [https://www.facebook.com/socializing.with.internationals.in.Paris/](https://www.facebook.com/socializing.with.internationals.in.Paris/) 🔹 Facebook Page – Photos, memories & updates: [https://www.facebook.com/socializing.with.internationals.in.Paris/](https://www.facebook.com/socializing.with.internationals.in.Paris/) 🔹 Socializus: [www.socializus.org](http://www.socializus.org/) 🔹 Become an Organizer: [https://chat.whatsapp.com/KtR79S8Obfs3WTPTIBsoCm](https://chat.whatsapp.com/KtR79S8Obfs3WTPTIBsoCm) Join the volunteer team and get a free drink 🍹 It’s 100% free because we are a non-profit association. ✦✦ Last-minute changes may happen, but everything is updated via the app with the free pass.

Join our weekly walking meetup to have fun, maintain a healthy lifestyle, meet new people, and enjoy the weather! We meet Saturdays at 10am, halfway between the Reston *Container Store* and *Not Your Average Joes* (by the metal benches), leaving no later than 10:05. Every week, rain or shine, we start by walking along the Green Trail to reach Lake Anne Community Center. Once there, we pause for water/bio (often staying a few minutes extra from April-November, due to the local Farmer's Market), and then we circle Lake Anne and head back to our starting point. It's roughly 3-4 miles and takes about an hour and a half. Afterwards, some members will often head to *Not Your Average Joes* or another local restaurant for a quick drink/meal before tackling the day. This event is open to all ages and fitness levels. Dogs are welcome, and we recommend dressing for the weather (umbrella, water, snow shoes, hat, etc.) since we'll walk rain or shine. Also, feel free to bring a friend! By signing up, you accept and assume all risks and responsibilities with this activity, and nobody will be held liable.
