Curious Conexiones: A Spanglish MeetUp

¿Cómo te conectas con la gente? Acquaintances? Loved ones?

What questions do you ask?

What does connection mean to you?

Join us to connect.

Meet us on Feb. 1st Thursday and connect with other Spanish/English bilingual professionals who are passionate about connection and curious about exploring the power of questions!

How do you carry conversations and connect with others?

How do you ask questions and why?

Let’s learn from each other, support each other, exchange resources, network, and connect!

Vamos a encontrarnos, conocernos y hacer networking. Somos un grupo internacional apasionado por hacer vinculos, y crear vinculos profundos. Vamos a explorar el poder y potencial de hacer preguntas y preguntarse.

Along the way, we hope to connect with each other through the conversation and the Meetup will double as language practice for English or Spanish.

Language of meeting: Spanglish.

You can speak English, Spanish, or switch between the two, as you wish.

Intended for people who speak intermediate (or higher) English and Spanish.

Note: If you are fluent in one and a beginner in the other, we still welcome you! You likely won’t understand everything, but that’s ok - that’s normal when learning and there is no test!

Ojo: Si dominas una lengua y eres principiante en la otra, ¡te damos la bienvenida! Es probable que no lo entiendas todo, pero no pasa nada: es normal cuando se aprende y ¡no hay examen!

We do not plan to fully interpret the meetup, but will spot interpret as needed. This is a low-stakes environment to discuss interesting topics and practice languages.
