About the event

Komm zu unserem Language Exchange Picnic! Ven a practicar Espanol con nosotros! Vieni al nostro picnic di scambio linguistico!:)*
Before moving the event back to our beloved bar SisyFass for cozy autumn vibes, we’ll host one more language exchange picnic in the park! This time featuring four language blankets: German, Spanisch, French and Italian! This event offers a relaxed environment to practice your language skills while meeting new people. Whether you’re improving your German or perfecting your Spanish, Italian or French, our language exchange picnic the perfect opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations with fellow learners and native speakers.
Event Details:
• Location: Monbijou Park in Mitte, close to the tram station "Monbijouplatz" (more or less here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/a8d8GjyVmEdPaec7A) • Date & Time: Thursday, 24th September, 18:30 – Open End • Fee: Free participation • What to bring: Bring a blanket to sit on, a drink, a snack and your friends (also the furry ones!) if you like! • Host: The event will be hosted by Laura!
How It Works:
• Focused on German, Spanish, Italian and French – all levels are welcome, with a target range of A2–B2. • We encourage also native speakers of Spanish/French/Italian to join, enjoy a chat in their native language and practice their German – a great opportunity to find a Tandem partner! • Depending on the blanket you sit on, we will speak French, Spanish, Italian or German. There will be some conversation starters, but feel free to chat about whichever topics feels right! • Change to another blanket whenever you like.
FAQs:
• I’m interested in practicing German/French/Spanish/Italian but don’t speak the other language. Can I still participate Yes, you’re welcome to join even if one language is stronger for you. However, the goal is to create a tandem environment between German, Spanish, Italian and French, so it’s ideal if you have some knowledge of at least two of the languages. • My proficiency isn’t very high, but I’d like to participate. Is this event suitable for me? Absolutely! This event is all about practicing and connecting, so all skill levels are encouraged. Just keep in mind that the focus is on German, Spanish, Italian and French. • As the event takes place in a park – is there a toilet nearby? Good news for tiny bladders (no shame!) – there is a public toilet close to our meeting point. Make sure to bring some change for the donation box. • What if the weather su**s? If the forecast will be very bad, we will relocate to a bar nearby the park. We'll share the new location at least 4 hours before the event starts. We are manifesting a sunny late summer evening though 🌞!
Nous nous réjouissons à l'avance de passer une soirée fantastique d'échange linguistique! Wir freuen uns auf einen schönen Abend mit Euch! Ojala verte este jueves! Non vediamo l'ora di trascorrere una bella serata con voi!
