Hiya friends,

We are back once again with the Musical Chairs Dinner on Thursday 9th July.

I would be glad if you can join..

This is a totally new concept of having dinner while mixing and mingling with the group at the same time.

The concept is very simple yet interesting.

There will be 10 NUMBERED tables sitting 4 people each.

When you walk in, you pick a number and you go and sit on that particular numbered table. Starters will be served.

Once you are done with the starters, you pick the number again and go to the next table. Main course will be served.

Once you are done with your main meal, you pick a number again and move to the next table where desserts will be served.

Once, we are done with the meal, we will have a party.

The dinner costs 70 CHF which includes

1/2 bottle of wine
Water
Starters
Main course (Fish, Chicken, Veggie)
Dessert
Coffee

Now that you have the details, please reply to this email confirming your attendance.

Let me know if you need any more info.

Cheers
Ehsaan

Hi

Anybody keen to join for a mountainbike tour either on Saturday or Sunday (depending on the weather)?

The route is not yet clear, I am open for recommendations. (GPS is avail.)

Starting point may be everywhere reachable from Zurich/Baden within 1-2hrs (by train).

I would go for 40-50km's and about 1500hm.
Singletrails may be included, so at least a front suspension bike is recommended.

The tour should be enjoyable and will contain enough breaks to have refreshing drinks.
Fun and enjoyment is the moto :)

If anybody is interested drop me a mail and we can discuss the details.

Cheers,
Mat

This is a series of events for everybody who wants to discover the "other" Geneva off of the well trodden paths. We will focus mainly on live music, alternative settings, local festivals and very informal get-togethers.

* DISCLAIMER *

These events are for you if:

* You love life and have a good sense of humor
* You think live and let live is a winning concept
* Sitting on the lawn sharing a drink with friends doesn't stress you out because you might get stains on your designer outfit.

Coming weekend is another great local music event, the 12th edition of the Gena Festival. This is a very charming open air music Festival offering a wide variety of live music for every taste, entrance is for free and its reachable from downtown by bus (Bus line K, stop "Rte d'Epeisses").

What more can you ask for?

Lets meet up on Saturday July 4th, 19h, at the "bus" side entrance of the Festival next to stage called "L'Hasta Bulle". For detailled map of the festival ground go to the web site of the festival and download the flyer.

Support your local wildlife!

Hi Folks,

I will be heading to Lyon this coming weekend as i am gonna audition for the french version of the X Factor which is the equivalent of the famous pop idol (singing competition).

My audition will take place the day after which means on Sunday, 5th of July.

I am gonna be there a day before, on Saturday, 4th of July. I am planning to be there in the morning and get to spend a good and productive day of new cultural horizon.

From Geneva by train (TER), it takes less than 2 hours to get there. The whole city of Lyon is registered into the UNESCO Heritage. The food there is just fantastic! The city is just stunning! I am talking by experience as i lived in Lyon for a while. I love this city! The people there are really kind and welcoming!

So if you fancy discovering a new city not far from Geneva by train, then this trip to Lyon is for you! Please join in the fun of discovering a new town!

By the way, the return train ticket to Lyon from Geneva is affordable.

------------------------------------

*** Meeting details will be sent out to those who will have confirmed their presence! ***

------------------------------------

I hope to see you all then! The more the merrier!

Best regards,

David

I lived in Germany for about five years, but I haven't spoken German in a few years and I'm afraid that I'm losing my German. I'd like to get together with some German speakers to practice speaking German. It doesn't matter whether it's with native speakers or students of the language. I listed this event for Saturday, but the date is really open. Contact me if interested and we'll work out a suitable time to meet up.

Hi there,

Let's speak or practise Spanish while meeting friendly people and having a drink on Saturday, July 4th, from 8:00 p.m.

We will meet somewhere in Plainpalais and we are going to look for a nice place to drink something.

If you are really SURE that you can attend this activity, please, send me a message and I will give you the details of this activity.
See you!

Jaime

This Saturday (July 4th)
at 10:00 PM
at the Parc de la Perle du Lac
a short movie festival
Organized by Swiss Films
Recommended to all those who love cinema and particularly short films!
Contact me if you are interested
Cheers, Lobita

Anybody interested?



The program starts already in the afternoon (Pool-day activities), but I would rather be interested in the evening (Loop-night).



All infos...

Anyone up for a good time at the famous "Lake Parade" in Geneva on Saturday? I've never been to this event, but I'm sure it would be a great way to getting to know new people and having a good time!

Drop me a line, and we'll figure out a place to meet. Cheers!

Hello,

I have booked in for a 1 day polo course in Winterthur. I only booked last week so they may still have space if you are interested.

Here is the link, you would have to apply online and get confirmation to make sure you are properly registered/booked in.

http://www.polopark.ch/Polo_Einf?hrungskurs--175-500-1/Polo%20Park%20Z?rich_Einf?hrungskurs.html

It starts at 9am through to 2pm near Winterthur. You need to be able to ride and have a riding helmet (and probably understand some German), but the hire of a horse is included!

Let me know if you decide to go and get booked in, maybe we can meet on the way there.

Hello,

Anyone interested in going to Caliente in Zurich Helvetiaplatz on Friday or/and Saturday evening?
I will go on Fri evening and Saturday daytime or evening.

There's some amazing people on this forum so I'm back...

Ok, some of you know that I have a problem to manage myself in a crowd (that's called a social phobia).

I can now go easily in Town so my next challenge is to be in a real crowd.

What a better place than to be in the crowd of the lake parade.

So, on a good advice I will start at the Parc Mon Repos and follow my way to the crowd. I'll be probably there between 2pm - 4 pm.

I'll just walk to see every truck, watch the girls dancing and finally I'll be dancing on the lake sensation.

Hi everybody !!! Join Sponge bob and have a picture taken with him while enjoying a fresh and tasty sangria in a fancy bar in the old town of Geneva. Here's the concept : a decent quantity of sangria will be waiting for us at a special price. Dress code : wear something blue, whatever you fancy, blue t-shirt, blue make-up, blue ear-rings, blue hat....

The idea of the French / English Language Exchange is for French and English speakers to help each other in learning the language of the other.

We meet up each Saturday afternoon in the Maison des arts du Grutli between Place du Cirque and Parc des Bastions. There’s a map on their web site:

http://www.ville-ge.ch/culture/grutli

We meet by the tables opposite the information desk on the ground floor between 16h00 and 16h30. Look for a sign on one of the tables. At 16h30 we go either to the second floor of the building or across to Parc des Bastions, depending on the weather.

The afternoon is spent working in pairs consisting of a French speaker and an English speaker. Sometimes, if we don’t have an exact balance of French and English speakers, we have to work in groups of 3.

This time can be spent just in conversation or by studying a book, newspaper or magazine. So, it’s a good idea to come along with a text that interests you. A notebook, pen and pocket dictionary are also useful.

The exchange usually finishes around 18h30. For those who want to stay later, the conversation continues on in a local bar or bistro.

If you’re new to the group and this sounds like something you would like to get involved in then please send me a message via the glocals site.

For those of you who have been before and would like to be added to the email list for the group, please send me your email address via the glocals site.

We're driving to Lucca, Italy to watch the Dave Matthews concert. We have 2 free seats in our car for anyone going that direction.
We'll be leaving Saturday the 4th of July in the morning. Drop us a line if you're interested.

Full/closed: For car-pooling purposes, cheers!

Dear all,

We meet every MONDAY and WEDNESDAY at 7pm (19h00) and on SATURDAY at
10am in front of Bain des Paquis. (Quai Mont-Blanc / Quai Wilson)

To us : We are runners of all abilites, including those who literally only walk.
Don’t worry if you are “a newbie” to jogging / running / walking, “the professional
runners” keep us going…
We are of all ages, the youngest is 18 and the oldest?...who cares, it’s all about
running, and about sharing the same spirit.

Why not join us too - we have done a few races together (Sierre-Zinal, Jussy, the Geneva Marathon on Sept. 28th 2008 and the Geneva Marathon on 10th May 2009)

"If you can dream it - you can do it!"

The marathon training group has now over 200 people on the list, guys you rock…

Monday & Wednesday, we tend to run for about 45min to 1hour, Saturday is a long run, over 1 hour.

NO need to sign up, just come and join us – and YES, we meet even in the rain…

We tend to go for a “ginger tea” in winter after our run, or breakfast on Saturday morning…

Summer is almost here, now it's time for drinks at "la terrasse" ;-)


Happy training – looking forward to seeing YOU!

Best,

Swiss

Hi there!

Anyone wants to go on a bike trip through parts of the black forest?

We will cycle on "normal" roads, so no real need to bring with you a mountain-bike. A city or racing bike will be sufficient. We will cycle at an average speed of 20 km/hr, so that we still have breath to enjoy the beautiful surroundings:-)

Plan is to leave by bike at 10am. Starting point will be outside the main entrance to Badischer Bahnhof. Aim is to cycle ca. 5 hours. And bring some energy food with you for our lunch break...

CU,
Jeroen

Hi I have a ticket for the concert and I am looking for somebody to go with. I would go by train, but if somebody is going there by car and has 1 seat for me wuold be very pleased to join!!
Samuela

Looking for people to join me to go up Mt. Blanc for a day-trip TOMORROW because the weather is better! I have been told that the views are amazingly beautiful and I am looking for people to share the experience and costs of the trip, for more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mt._Blanc. I would like to go through Chamonix, using the "aguille di midi" lift and leave early tomorrow morning to return in the evening.

I am an intern at the UN, here from the US and would love to meet other people here in Geneva.

With the lovely weather I'm getting itchy feet for the first wakeboarding of the year! If it stays sunny (fingers crossed) we'll go wakeboarding on the lake of Annecy this Sunday. We'll drive to the gorgeous town Talloires near Annecy. After the wakeboarding we can relax in Talloires. If you haven't boarded before it's really quite a painless sport to learn -- falling on water is so much nicer than falling on snow or ice! Usually each person boards for about 10 minutes at a time, which is pretty exhausting, then you can just lay back in the boat under the sun and watch everyone else make fools of themselves while you gather your strength for another go! The boat (with all the gear) costs 125 Euros per hour so it'll be 30 for 15 minutes of boarding or 60 for half an hour.

Right now there are 3 confirmed participants, the boat holds up to 7. We have enough place in the cars for an additional 4.

Please only respond if you would definitely like to go, because I need to make an advanced reservation. In your response please specify if you would like to board for 15 minutes (30 Euros) or 30 minutes (60 Euros). If at around noon on Sunday we see the weather is bad we'll cancel.

Details:

When and where: we'd meet at the tram stop "Bachet de Pesay" at 13:00, drive to Talloires and start wakeboarding at 14:00

What to bring: a bathing suit (you can bring a wet suit but it's not really needed in summer), a towel, suncream, and Euros (I can change Swiss francs to Euros for you if we agree on the amount in advance). Life vests and wakeboard(s) will be provided with the boat.

Hi,

If weather is ok I m going in Valais to hike from a lake to an other one! I have 3 available seats.

Departure: 1780 M
Lac de T?n?het: 2440 M

About 2 Hours to go. After the lake 2 possibilities (depends of path condition and speed of hikers)

- Going to a third lake via a col 2648 M (about 2 hours)
- Come back to departure point and going to see “bises of Valais”.


Departure: 7h30 Rive roundabout near Starbucks.

Take enough water, food, good shoes and Warm clothes.

If you are interested drop me a line.


Nicolas

NB: if we come back before 5 pm at car possibility to go to the swimming pool village.

Hi, it's me again ;-)

The next new activity that we're going to do is: brunching outside in our garden. As we know that most of you like to party on saturday night and enjoy a laisy sunday morning, so we will take care of you. Just come to our Open Air Brunch.

We will delight you with a buffet of the fresh-home made italian and austrian specialities to a very attractive price.

For the details I'll let you know in comming days.

See you there

Similar to the other Slow up posted a while back. Guranteed good weather since 2007 = warm and sunny and 2008 = a wash out... 2009 = sunshine and nothing else????

Drive or train up to Le Pont train station. I'll be there at 11am, i'll be wearing a white cap to stop myself getting sunburnt.

There is a place to hire bikes in Le Pont and from there we will follow the lac. Beer/water/food stops can be taken at regular intervals.

At about 2/3 thirds of the way round I plan to do take a break and get some waterskiing/wakeboarding in... see second link

Hi,

We are three guys and have planned to drive from Geneva to Barcelona with a rented ride, from the 4th to the 8th of Sept 2009. We are looking for 2 more people to join in and share costs for the car, gas and live the Barca Experience..

Although the car is a trifle more expensive than flights / trains on those dates, it promises better mobility within the country and might help us explore the Catalan coast as well.

Lemme know if anyone's up for it..

Respect..

Hike to the Pointe de Ressachaux

On Sunday 5 july we will go up to the Pointe de Ressachaux (2173m). From the Gaillard border near Geneva, we go by car to Morzine and a little higher, in the village Udrezants we park and go up towards the chalets du Creux (1757 m). a very beautiful place. We continue towards the Pointe de Ressachaux where we will have a great circular panorama. There are large north-eastern exposed cliffs.
While going down by the East and South-west, we arrive on the edge and go through the small valley between Ressachaux and HautForts, opposite Point of Nyon.
This path is prettier than that of the climb but a little more delicate.

The gradient of this hike is 1150 metres and most of the climb is rather steep. So it is suitable for fit hikers. A series of the photographs, taken on 19 mai, is available on the
site: http://amazraf.home.services.spaces.live.com/default.aspx

Meeting time and point : 7h15 at the French side of Moillesulaz border, Gaillard.

You will need enough food and drinks, warm clothes plus your passport and some euros – and a rucksack to put this all in. You will also need the good hiking boots.

There is a participation fee of 4 Euro 50 cents for a daily license of the French hiking federation FFRP, including insurance. Passengers pay a contribution of 8 Euro to the driver.

For more information, see the Website of Oxyg?ne 74 :
http://assoc.pagespro-orange.fr/rando-74/

If you are interested, you can contact me via glocals or on my direct e-mails amazraf@bluewin.ch or ali.farzam@bluewin.ch. You can also call me at
079 644 85 52 or 022 793 73 43.

Hello

Here is a truly, typical and respectable French custom, the debate.
If you feel confident enough to understand French
(even though you may not be able to speak it)
you might appreciate these meetings free of charge
(sill well organised and convivial).

Next topic to be discussed:
Peut-on etre sur d'avoir raison ? (d'apres les sujets du Bac de cette annee.)

Our cafe philo is held every Monday at 7pm at Annemasse, chez Maitre Kanter (back-room).

The Taverne is right opposite the Town Hall (place de l'hotel de Ville) in the centre of the ANNEMASSE (France).
By car, that is 20mn from the very centre of Geneva or 5 mn after the border of Moillesulaz.

Or with public transportation: Tram 12, 13 to get to Moillesulaz), then French bus N°1&2, get off at Clos fleuri-8mn)

Or train from Gare des Eaux-Vives gets Annemasse in 11 minutes. Then it's 10mn's walk to get at Maitre Kanter.

Someone will give you a lift to the border after the talk and a possible meal.

Hello there,

I've been wanting to do this one for some time
and finally decided this is the day...........

If you are interested in a Guided Tour
of the Chateau de Voltaire in Ferney Voltaire
then meet me infront of the Ferney Voltaire
Tourist Office: 26 Grand Rue, Ferney

Tuesday 7th July
at 2pm. (Tour at 2.30pm.)
then we can walk down the same road
where we will find the Castle. The Tour is 5 euros. After the tour we can visit the town and then have drinks in Ferney.

So if you are free day time and wouldlike to join me just drop me a mail to let me know you'll be there.

The bus F at the Station takes you there or
if you have a car we could meet before hand and go together. please let me know

thanks
