đ· Empanadas, Vino y Charla | SĂĄbado 23 en Colegiales
A veces no hace falta una gran salida.
Solo una mesa linda, algo rico y personas con ganas de conversar de verdad.
Este sĂĄbado voy a abrir mi casa para compartir vino, empanadas caseras y una noche tranquila con gente que probablemente todavĂa no se conoce entre sĂ.
La idea es simple:
bajar un cambio, cortar la semana un rato y generar un espacio cĂĄlido donde sea fĂĄcil sentirse cĂłmodo.
No hace falta venir con nadie.
La mayorĂa llega sola đ

â Sabores y ConexiĂłn đ€
Sometimes you donât need a big night out. Just a beautiful table, something delicious to eat, and people genuinely willing to connect.
This Wednesday, Iâm opening my home to share wine, homemade empanadas, and a calm evening with people who probably donât know each other yet.
The idea is simple: slow down for a while, break up the week, and create a warm space where it feels easy to be yourself.
You donât need to come with anyone. Most people come on their own đ

**How it works:** No team? No problem. Most people show up solo. We'll match you with a group when you get there. Teams rotate between rounds so you meet new people all night.
Already have a crew? Bring them. Teams of up to 3.
**What to expect:** Doors open at 7pm. Trivia kicks off at 7:30pm. 4 to 5 rounds. Prizes for the top teams. Drink specials all night. Afterwards we have a language exchange.
