Week 7

Language events, festivals, workshops, walking tours and free concerts

Hello hello,

As we have officially entered the “winter holiday” weeks, the event scene is less busy than it was in the previous weeks, but there are still plenty of activities to enjoy. There’s also Valentine’s Day for those of you who still celebrate this strange tradition the traditional way - not that I’m judging (or perhaps I am, but just a tiny bit).

But, anyway :) Take a look at what’s in store this week, and I hope you find something you like. It seems that winter is here to stay nowadays, so use whatever tools you have in your toolbox to combat the winter blues, people, be it Valentine’s Day or some other event.
