'THE SYMPATHIZER' by Viet Thanh Nguyen 'The winner of the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, as well as seven other awards, The Sympathizer is the breakthrough novel of the year. With the pace and suspense of a thriller and prose that has been compared to Graham Greene and Saul Bellow, The Sympathizer is a sweeping epic of love and betrayal. The narrator, a communist double agent, is a man of two minds, a half-French, half-Vietnamese army captain who arranges to come to America after the Fall of Saigon, and while building a new life with other Vietnamese refugees in Los Angeles is secretly reporting back to his communist superiors in Vietnam. The Sympathizer is a blistering exploration of identity and America, a gripping espionage novel, and a powerful story of love and friendship.' ***Please read the book and join us for a lively discussion (in English) about the contents during our afternoon book club meeting.*** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **PLEASE NOTE:** This is an IN-PERSON event in Amersfoort, The Netherlands.

The Dutch Heuvelrug is a hilly and sandy ridge, running from Hilversum in the north to Rhenen in the south. This National Park is covered in forest, heather and stretches of sand and dunes. On this hike, we will explore the Heuvelrug from Den Dolder. This area is mostly forested, perfect for a (hot) summer’s day! **Where to meet**: we will meet at **10 am** at train station Den Dolder. We will return to the same train station around 3pm. **This hike is fully booked.** [You may register on my website for a place on the waitlist.](https://rewildyourself.nu/dutch-nature-hikes/)

grassroots meet up for women / mothers / in Amsterdam who want to bring their children into their fun, spiritual and festival-going lives! this looks like a very family friendly festival, 30 minutes drive from Amsterdam and I do believe it is accessible by public transport. please note: I am not affiliated with this event, just a new mom / family who are finding our way back to events and spaces we loved pre-baby, now ready to enjoy them with our toddler and connecting with like-minded people along the way :) https://wonderfeel.nl

The sunny and warm summer weather finally seems here to stay, which makes it the perfect time to craft outside in the park!☀️ Join us for a relaxed crafting evening picnic in the park, where we bring our projects, spread out our blankets, and create together in the open air. Whatever you're working on, whether it's knitting, scrapbooking, sketching, embroidery, or that half-finished project that's been waiting for some attention, bring it along and enjoy an evening of making things in good company. You can join us at whichever time works for you. Don't feel pressured to join from the start at 19:00. You're still just as welcome to arrive at 21:00. But we will do a little introduction in a circle around 19:20 just to get to know each other a bit more and see what everyone is working on. This get together is also a great chance to chat, share tips, and get inspired by what everyone else is making! * 🎨 **What to bring?** Your own creative supplies and projects, whatever you love to work on. * 🧺 **Picnic style** Bring a blanket to sit on, and feel free to also bring some snacks and drinks. * 🔄 **Want to swap?** Got craft supplies you no longer need?

Join us for an intimate evening of exceptional food, meaningful conversation and new connections in the heart of Utrecht. Inspired by the tradition of breaking bread together, AAN TAFEL brings together food lovers, curious minds, couples, friends and solo guests around one shared table. This is more than a dinner. It's an opportunity to slow down, enjoy great food and meet people you may never have crossed paths with otherwise.

Everyone is welcome at the table. **What Makes This Different?** * A chef-curated multi-course dining experience * Wine pairing or alcohol-free pairing included * Shared tables designed to encourage connection * Thoughtful conversation starters throughout the evening * A mix of locals, expats, couples, friends and solo attendees * An intimate atmosphere where food becomes the starting point for memorable conversations At Stef's Table, we believe some of life's best conversations happen over a great meal. The food matters. The people matter too. **The Menu** This summer menu combines European ingredients and techniques with flavours inspired by Asia, creating familiar dishes with unexpected twists. Expect dishes such as: * Bloody Mary Oyster * Korean Steak Tartare * Seabass with Saffron Sauce * Seasonal Summer Vegetables with three side dishes * Mango Sorbet * Rhubarb Tiramisu A complete wine pairing (or alcohol-free alternative) is included and carefully matched to each course. ***[[See the menu here](https://www.stefstable.com/event-details-registration/aan-tafel-de-zomereditie)]*** **Practical Information** **Date:** Saturday 4 July 2026 **Time:** 18:30 – 22:30 **Location:** Lucas, Utrecht **Price:** €89 per person ***[Book your ticket here](https://www.stefstable.com/event-details-registration/aan-tafel-de-zomereditie)*** **Included** * Welcome drink * Five-course dinner * Wine pairing or alcohol-free pairing * Digestif * Conversation cards and social dining experience * An evening of food, connection and new encounters **Come hungry.

Hi everyone; alas, all things eventually come to an end, and in this case my time as a meetup organizer is coming to an end. I'll still be around, maybe contributing tango events to the community (depending on its decision and new wave of organizers). So for one last time (with me), if you want to enjoy nature, trips/excursions, and generally a more outdoors setting, let’s get together for a final hiking excursion. The plan is to meet at Utrecht Central (and/or a train station that is closest to our hiking area), and then we begin our hiking route. As always, I recommend that you wear a comfy outfit & shoes and bring water & a snack or two. At some point during the excursion, we can do a break in between to rest and eat/drink for a while. More info about the route/location: https://www.ns.nl/dagje-uit/wandelen/meijendel.html Short info from the route's site; the route is 13 km in total For pet owners, dogs are allowed but on a leash Once we reach the beach north of Scheveningen, we'll be sitting there for a while in the sunset. Then we will end up in Scheveningen Pier. And depending on the time & weather, and whether people are up for it, there’s always the possibility of follow-up drinks later at Scheveningen. More tips on finding the group along with helpful contact info with the host will follow in the comments the day before the meetup. To those willing to join, I'd be delighted to have you with me at the end of my meetup organizer time 😊 In case of bad (NL) weather, the event will be moved to another day.

You can come alone — many people do. Please bring your own mat if you have one. If you don’t have a mat, send me a message in advance and I can bring one for you. 📍 Wilhelminapark, Utrecht 🗓 Sunday, 5 July ⏰ 11:00 💸 Ticket: €15 Spots are limited, so please reserve your ticket if you’d like to join.
