What we’re about
[Kulturaustausch Kaiserslautern]
New in town, want to make some friends, learn about other cultures or practise your English or German? This group is set up as an informal way to meet new people, share your culture and find out about others. Open to everyone: locals, expats and students.
It can be daunting moving to Kaiserslautern if you don't already know anyone here, especially if you aren't familiar with the language or culture. Equally, it can be tricky to master English without chatting to native speakers. Thus we want to hold meetups where locals, newcomers and foreigners can meet and share their wisdom.
More details to come!

Bist du neu hier in der Stadt? Willst du ein paar neue Freunde finden, über andere Kulturen kennnenlernen, oder dein Englisch oder Deutsch üben? Diese Meetup-Gruppe wurde gegründet, um neue Leute kennenzulernen und Kultur auszutauschen. All sind willkommen: Einheimische, Ausländer, Student:inn:en, Deutsche neu in "K-Town", ...
Es kann stressig sein, an einen neuen Ort zu ziehen, wenn man dort niemanden kennen, besonders wenn man auch die Sprache oder Kultur nicht kennen. Ebenso kann es schwierig sein, Englisch zu lernen, ohne mit Muttersprachlern zu sprechen. Wir möchten deswegen Meetups organisieren, bei denen Einheimische, Zugezogene und Ausländer zusammenkommen können.

Quiet Writing Hour (English)
Cafe Extrablatt, Marktstraße 26, 67655 Kaiserslautern, Kaiserslautern, DEHi everyone,
Quiet Writing Hour is a low-key creative writing meetup where we sit down to write together.
The focus is on creative writing, such as fiction, poetry, or personal projects. Writers of all levels are welcome. You can work on anything, from a short poem to a longer project. We usually begin with a short writing exercise using a prompt for the first fifteen minutes to get started.
The meetup is also a way to meet other writers and be part of a small writing community in Kaiserslautern.
