Happy New Year 2024!

I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You’re doing things you’ve never done before, and more importantly, you’re doing something. Neil Gaiman

Let’s meet at Brunswick’s Christmas Market!

The next After Work Stammtisch (No. 117) is going to take place on the first Tuesday in December 2023 – 5th December 2023. Following „the same procedure as every year“ our venue is in front of the Ferris wheel at 7:00 pm. After walking around Brunswick’s Christmas Market in small groups, we will all meet again in front of the Ferris wheel to talk about what exciting items one might have bought and what one has planned to do for Christmas this year. They have the best mulled beer right in front of our meeting place as well as tasty children´s punch which is basically non-alchoholic mulled beer, so … CHEERS! … till round about 8:30 pm.
