Please arrive by 6:20 PM, the meeting starts at 6:30 PM👉No registration or dress code is needed, the event is FREE.👉NOTE: We will have signs in the place so you can locate easily the Toastmasters Meeting room. --- Toastmasters International is a world leader in communication and leadership development. Our membership is 313,000 strong. Members improve their speaking and leadership skills by attending one of the 14,650 clubs in 126 countries that make up our global network of meeting locations. The world needs leaders. Leaders head families, coach teams, run businesses, and mentor others. These leaders must not only accomplish but must also communicate. By regularly giving speeches, gaining feedback, leading teams, and guiding others to achieve their goals in a supportive atmosphere, leaders emerge from the Toastmasters program. Every Toastmaster's journey begins with a single speech. During their journey, they learn to tell their stories. They listen and answer. They plan and lead. They give feedback—and accept it. Through our community of learners, they find their path to leadership.

El objetivo de este encuentro es romper el hielo, hablar de las historias que nos gusta escribir, de por qué escribimos, de los libros que nos gusta leer, de qué dificultades encontramos al enfrentarnos al folio en blanco y de qué esperamos del grupo. En definitiva, se trata de conocernos como personas para entendernos como escritores. No importa si has escrito diez novelas, cuatro cuentos o el precioso título de un poema sin versos. Aquí todo aspirante a juntaletras es bienvenido.

**This week's venue: ANT Collective \| Tisza u\. 11\. Budapest 1133** (the venue requires 1000 Ft/person) We hold a bi-weekly workshop to encourage creative writing where we share pieces of creative writing and solicit feedback from the other attendees. Some members also use the forum to find others with whom to collaborate, edit work, and/or brainstorm plot, themes, settings, and so forth. And from time to time, we participate in competitions, recite and/or offer material for events organized by other groups. At the moment there is no prompt for this particular meetup. Instead, writers are invited to submit something they have (or are working on) or to craft a short story specifically for the event. Of course, there's no pressure to submit something. Many participants are interested in hearing ideas, questioning the authors, and examining style and technique. Often, we explore other published works as well. The submission guidelines are as follows: 1. limit the piece to 850 words (to give enough time for any other submissions being read at the event); 2. make the text available (though you can read it aloud) for the other attendees. Many authors bring a few printed copies, others post their work in the comments of the meetup; 3. have a question in mind for the group about the submission; and, 4. If offering something from a longer work, be prepared to give a little bit of background first.

Open Dharma Budapest is a friendly meditation sangha for anyone interested in meditation. Every Sunday we gather for 1–1.5 hours at a local tea house to sit together, share, and support each other on the path. What to expect: Each session begins with a 20-minute silent sit, followed by an open, voluntary sharing of our experiences — a space to process what arises in practice, together. Attention: This is not a guided meditation class. We explore a range of techniques rooted in Theravāda Buddhism, with a modern and pragmatic approach - open to both seasoned practitioners and complete beginners. Your host: Sessions are hosted by Maria East, a long-term practitioner of Theravāda, Vajrayāna, and Dzogchen, with over 10 silent retreats over the last 5 years. Maria is also a clinical psychologist in training, who is happy to offer additional support if practice brings up anything challenging. You're welcome to enjoy a cup of tea before the session ([Menu](https://okuma.space/menu/)). Please [book here ](https://okuma.resos.com)and come earlier if you wish so (for Tea) [PLEASE RSVP HERE](https://okuma.space/event/open-dharma-budapest-free-meditation-4/) to receive further instructions on how to get in (for Meditation)

The language of this event is 🇭🇺 Hungarian. Nyár van, kint a helyünk. Hozd a pokrócod, egy hideg italt és magadat - leülünk a fűbe, és ezúttal nem csak sörözünk (de azt is 🍻). Van egy téma, ami az utóbbi hónapokban újra meg újra előjön a folyosókon, a posztok alatt: **Megszervezzük végre magunkat szakmaként?** A hazai UX/design szakma tehetséges, és szétszórt. A tudás, a kapcsolat, a láthatóság ad hoc mozog - sokszor egy-egy ember jóindulatán múlik. Több helyen is forr most valami: ki összefogást akar, ki közszolgáltatás-designt, ki egyszerűen csak nem akar egyedül ülni a Figma előtt. Ezen az estén **közösen gondolkodunk hangosan**: kell-e nekünk közös szakmai tér, és ha igen, milyen? Nem előadás, nem panel. **Laza, facilitált beszélgetés a pokrócon**, mindenki hoz egy nézőpontot, és visz egy gondolatot. **Miről beszélgetünk** * Mi hiányzik most a leginkább a szakmából? (mentorálás, közösség, minőség, érdekképviselet…) * Mi az, ami már működik — és mit kár újra feltalálni? * Ha lenne egy közös, **átlátható** szakmai tér, mi tenné valóban hasznossá — és mi rontaná el? * Mi az az **első, nagyon kicsi dolog**, amit tényleg meg is csinálnánk? **Hogyan zajlik** * **18:00** gyülekező, pokróc-foglalás, ismerkedés * **18:30** rövid felvezetés + facilitált körök kis csoportokban * **19:15** közös összegzés: mit visz haza a szakma erről az estéről * **19:30** kötetlen beszélgetés, sör, naplemente 🌇 **Mit hozz** 🧺 pokrócot · 🥤 italt/harapnivalót magadnak 🧠 egy őszinte véleményt arról, mi hiányzik **Kinek szól** Designereknek, kutatóknak, vezetőknek, junioroknak, **bárkinek a szakmából** és a társterületekről\*\*.\*\* Nem kell felkészülni, nem kell „valakinek lenni". Aki kíváncsi a szakma jövőjére, annak itt a helye. **Akadálymentesség** A helyszín kerekesszékkel megközelíthető. Ha bármilyen igényed van, hogy jól érezd magad köztünk, írj nekünk előre - igyekszünk megoldani. ♿ **Gyere, ülj le a fűbe, és tedd hozzá a hangod.** Lehet, hogy pont ezen az estén indul el valami, amit évek óta hiányolunk. 🌱 🚀 **Fontos infó: Költözik a UX Budapest!** Gőzerővel készülünk az őszi átállásra, amikor is teljesen **elhagyjuk** a Meetup.com-ot, és minden eseményünket kizárólag a **Lumán** szervezzük majd. Ez a pokrócos találkozó már az új felületünkön is él! 👉 **Itt tudsz követni minket:** [https://luma.com/wdm4y3g2](https://luma.com/wdm4y3g2)

Most vendors accept cash or charge. **WEAR**: Summer Fest wear - nice t-shirt & shorts, comfy shoes (fest is on 38 acres of grass, trails and sidewalks). **NEWBIES**: This event is very freeform so I would suggest coming along with a buddy as members will be coming and going from our circle.
