Hi, does anyone of you live in Duisburg, maybe even in the district Neudorf, or nearby ( Essen, M眉lheim, Oberhausen...? ) Why not organize an expat blog get-together?
A short introduction of myself: I live in Duisburg-Neudorf with my partner and our 2 cats and work in an office. I like to go for a walk, sometimes with a dog, canoeing, swimming ( I am a member of a swimming club where I spend most of my free time in summer ) and am looking forward to join an outdoor aquajogging class in summer.
I also do a bit of volunteer work; I join a group that takes children of poor families out to the theater etc., and am assistant of a swimming teacher.

Hello Astrid,

Thank you for your initiative, that's a great idea
I am the event manager for 色花堂, helping our members organizing gatherings in their cities (sending notifications to everyone etc...).
We could help you organize a get together in the area of Neudorf if you wish.

Let me know聽

Thanks, Helene, that is very kind of you.
I want to make it as simple as possible: First I'd like to wait until I get a couple of positive replies, and then find a place where we can meet and fix a date and time and post it as an event. If we do it in spring, we can maybe already sit outside where there is usually more space and does not really matter if we are 10 or 15 people. But it's better to announce it soon enough.
What do you think? How could you help me?

Hello!聽 I know it's been a crazy year (plus) since you originally posted this, but I just moved to Duisburg a little over a month ago, and am moving to Neudorf next week.聽 Are you still up for getting together?聽 I know there are lots of restrictions still, which makes sense, but maybe we could plan something small outside? Moving during a pandemic has been a bit tough!
