“ I particularly like this group not only since it gives me an opportunity to speak and listen to German, but also to talk to people about very interesting topics. I spoke with this one individual about politics, and theories of capitalism and communism and found it to be quite interesting. All the people I speak to in this group are very interesting, cultured, and like me, are into languages. I would like to attend more events. ”

It's a fun evening out and an easy way, through language, no matter your level of German, to meet new people. You'll be surprised how quickly your German will improve. ”
— A former member on Nov 3, 2005.
“ this is only my 2nd time in this meetup. i hope we can keep the level of attendeance at least at the level of last night- about 13 people (past meetups tended to be very small), without growing too big- i'd like to keep it manageable. (I functioned as organizer last night because thorsten happel was out of town) ”
—A former member on Oct 28, 2004.
“ Ich hatte das Gefuehl das es etwas schwierig ist fuer 'Neue' mit Leuten die schon laenger bei den Treffen mitmachen in Kontakt zu kommen. Es bleibt natuerlich nicht aus das sich Gruppen bilden aber vielleicht gibt es eine Moeglichkeit neue Mitglieder mit 'alt Eingesessen' bekannt zu machen. Lederhosen fand ich gut da es eine lockere Atmosphaere bietet die sich eigentlich sehr gut zum kennenlernen eignet. ”
— Astrid Eich-Krohm on Dec 9, 2005.
