# 🌟 **ENGLISH VERSION** 📍 **Dilettos Pastas & Café – Perón 4217, Buenos Aires** 🗓️ **Every Saturday \| 18:00 HS – 20:00 HS** 🎟️ **Entry: 5,000 ARS (≈ 5 USD)** *** ### 🌈 **Saturdays just got better.** Let’s face it — meeting new people as an adult is weird, awkward, and sometimes straight-up intimidating. So we created a space where everything feels easy. No pressure. No scripts. No “networking voice.” Just real people, good energy, and conversations that actually go somewhere. Come grab a seat, chat with someone new, flirt if the vibe is right 😉, and enjoy that magic moment when strangers start feeling like friends. No minimum consumption — just bring your vibe, your curiosity, and let the night flow. Expect: ✨ Multilingual chaos ✨ Cultural surprises ✨ Genuine laughs ✨ Unexpected chemistry ✨ And that “how are we just meeting now?” feeling This isn’t networking. This isn’t speed dating. This is **Culture Shock Therapy** — where the city meets the world.🌍⚡ If you’ve been searching for your tribe in Buenos Aires… You’ve officially found it *** *** # 🌟 **VERSIÓN EN ESPAÑOL** 📍 **Dilettos Pastas & Café – Perón 4217, Buenos Aires** 🗓️ **Todos los sábados \| 18:00 HS – 20:00 HS** 🎟️ **Entrada: $5.000 (≈ 5 USD)** *** ### 🎉 **Los sábados ahora tienen otro sabor.** Seamos honestos: hacer amigos de adulto es raro, incómodo y a veces un poco intimidante. Por eso creamos un espacio donde todo fluye. Sin presión. Sin caretas. Sin tener que “parecer interesante.” Solo buena vibra, gente auténtica y conversaciones que valen la pena. Vení, sentate, conocé a alguien nuevo, coqueteá si pinta 😉, y disfrutá ese momento en el que los desconocidos se convierten en compañía. No hay consumo obligatorio — traé tu energía, tus ganas de conectar y dejá que la noche haga lo suyo. Vas a encontrar: ✨ Caos lingüístico ✨ Choques culturales divertidos ✨ Risas reales ✨ Conexiones inesperadas ✨ Y ese famoso “¿cómo recién nos estamos conociendo?” No es networking. No es speed dating.

(English is the primary language, but feel free to switch of course) **How to talk with strangers?** (and create meaningful connections) To help you get started, I curated a little game of **[ridiculously good questions](https://www.pierrebonvalot.com/theblog?p=285a9711d7df80d5ac25dd4ef8fe5394&pm=c)** you can ask to break the ice, shift the conversation from dull to intriguing and fun, and eventually create meaningful connection quickly. I hope this helps! **The only things you need to do are…** • Leave a message in the comment section to let the others know that you will actually be there (I don’t want you to end up alone there :) • If you can’t make it anymore, no problem!

Arrive at the meeting spot at the scheduled time. 2. Look for other joiners—friendly faces and curious explorers. 3. Introduce yourself, connect with others, and decide as a group where to go. **When & where?** * Day: every Sunday * Time: 4:00 PM (meetup sometimes displays a different time zone: but it’s always 4pm local time) * Location: in Plaza Italia (in Palermo), in front of the statue of Giuseppe Garibaldi. **Hostless**: I am setting up the event for you all to meet, but I won't be there myself this time :) **Hi my names is Pierre** I created this Meetup group because I want to see more human connection happen in the real world. I feel many of us want this, but don't exactly know how to go about it. I hope this helps a little bit. I also work as a transformational coach: I help people who feel stuck in their life to reconnect with themselves, create real change and ultimately live more fulfilling lives. 🔗 bento.me/pierrebonvalot

Our January program is privileged to have Kristen Tregar as our speaker. Ms. Tregar is the co-author with John de Lancie (the actor who portrayed the character Q on Star Trek next generation) of a radio play depicting the events surrounding the Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District trial. The trial decided the issue of some of the Dover school district board members attempting to insert creationism disguised as "intelligent design" into the 9th grade biology curriculum. She will discuss the trial and the process of writing the play. (Bob Leonhard has seen the play and it is riveting and tense). Ms. Tregar's bio is below: Kristen Tregar is a dramaturg, director, playwright, and theatre teacher. She earned her Ph.D. in Drama and Theatre from the UC San Diego and UC Irvine joint program. In addition, she has a MS in Forensic Science from City University of New York- John Jay College of Criminal Justice and a MA in Educational Theatre from New York University- Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. In 2013, in collaboration with Irish colleagues, she founded *The Ireland Project*, an intercontinental devised theatre work with high school students in New York and Tallaght, Ireland. Her original short story "Far From Here" was recently published in *Stay Awhile Longer: More Scenes From Temecula Valley*. She has two rescued dogs (Kira and Harry) and she rides, competes, and foxhunts with her horses, Andromache and Baker Street Irregular. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.

On a list of "My Favorite Things", few people would put a "break up" in their top ten. More often, these words evoke feelings of shame, embarrassment, poor choices, and bad or sad endings. Before the new and beautiful can be built, the old, broken, and unnecessary must be cleared away. This process can be painful, but it is good, needful, and can produce wonderful results when done wisely and well. How does one break free from anxiety, comparison, or shame? Christian Bevere points people to the freedom God desires for His children, as well as giving practical ideas on how to shed both unhealthy baggage and the lies that seek to leave us anchored to past failure. Drawing from the Bible, ***Break Up With What Broke You*** clearly shows that what Satan would seek to use for evil, God uses for good and to accomplish His purposes.
