Workout... as in aerobics and spandex, or like a workshop? Either way, I'm into it.

Are you still thinking to make it a language exchange like we talked about at the EVS meeting? Not too formal with people just having conversations with each other, or something a bit more formal where people plan lessons, et cetera?

I'm not so interested in learning Spanish right now, but I wasn't kidding about the Dutch/Flemish.

We are thinking of doing something more fun than a simple exchange of conversation, but it is not entirely clear ... Something like "pictionary", Spanish song translations into English (funny songs)... This can be also something like a competition between two groups: "group that wants to learn Spanish" and "group that wants to learn English", with a final prize for the winning group or anything that the losing group can offer the winning team .. . If you have any idea or suggestion please say it or shut up forever :D
I would talk to some people I'm sure they're interested in learning Spanish, so they tell me they think this way of learning because they would like to play ... We can create an ad and post it on The Forest, for people who are interested can give ideas of games and whether the number of people is large enough that this is possible. Also contact with some people who want to learn English, if you know who, please tell them they can learn a lot of fun!

Lien, I have no exact date before I ask some people who want to learn Spanish than you think of my idea. On Tuesday, 22 I have a reunion with some of these people to see what appears to them. I would like to put posters in the bar if i can be on the website The Forest, this I have to ask Birgid, no? I'm working on it.

Ok, the workshop "Game Spanish / English"will begin on Saturday 19th, I have to decide the time. Today I went to hostels to leave the flyer and I will wait until Saturday 19th, I think I'll have some people to take the course.

Lien, we have a meeting to see what games can do, if pins are the same games in the two workshops, nothing happens, people are different. Two heads are better than one!

Health!
