After many virtual meetups, finally we are at least meeting one friend in person each week. We formed four pairs yesterday. Two of them have already met yesterday and two pairs are meeting today. For the ones who met yesterday, I hope you had a good time. And for the ones meeting today, have fun and enjoy the sun.π€ππ
Thank you, Audrey, Nikita and Binda, for sharing about your meetup last week. π€π
Happy to hear your stories and share them here.π
Nikita: We went to the food trucks near Sint Trudokerk. But then we didnβt feel like eating and rode to this park near the former Philips stadium, which also had a boulder for rock climbing. Audrey also showed me around the Strijp-S area and I have to say she knows a lot about Eindhoven. We also talked about how we landed up in Eindhoven and it was nice spending time with her.
Audrey: Hi! We first went to Sint Trudoplein to check the Thursday food trucks (fish truck, chicken truck, cheese truck and Vietnamese truck); we then went to the Evoluon (We forgot to take a pic) and then to the nearby park (Jacob Oppenheimerpark) where we sat for a while. We discussed about Eindhoven, about the corona times of course, and about our hopes that the vaccine will bring an end to it, so that we can enjoy the city life fully. We then went home, with a little detour to Strijp-S (the feel good market square). We also discussed that we felt lazy before meeting each other, but we had a lovely time and agreed that it was worth it π
Binda: Hi guys! π€ I’ll also share mine! Yesterday for the first time I met someone from GIT and she is.. Megha! We met in a park near Strijp-S in a perfect weather, share some stories and also share chocolate cake.π€© Megha told me about the first time she came to NL and how she adapted here (which I will learn a lot). We also shared stories about our own culture in Nepal and Indonesia. We found that both Nepal and Indonesia have some similar local wisdoms and we are also excited to have our own life here in NL.π
It’s beautiful to meet someone and share some stories π₯°π₯°π₯°
