Deutschfreunde für November u. Dezember: Amazon.de, Fußballfreunde, Ihre Anregungen
Dear Victoria German speakers!
I will be returning to Victoria Tuesday after six months in Germany and I'm looking forward to seeing you again at the events I will organize. Also, with Christmas coming up, I'm once again providing others with an opportunity to join a group purchase from Amazon.de (see below).
I would like your input in scheduling events: if you've been inclined to come, but have found Friday evenings to not be suitable for you, I'd love to hear from you.
For November and December, I've only scheduled two evenings of German football. Once I've received some feedback, I will schedule some other activities, including German Games Night and Flimmerkiste.
German will indeed be spoken, great for anyone who'd like to improve or keep up their German, or just to make new friends through the German language. German speakers of all levels are welcome!
To view a calendar with these events directly, please visit Deutschfreunde.
Note that refreshments are now available at all events. Please RSVP if you intend to attend any events. Thank you!
Wir freuen uns auf Ihren Besuch!
Amazon.de Order
Products from Germany!
Amazon.de sells thousands of products and ships to Canada at a flat rate of 14 Euros per shipment. I will be coordinating an order again this year in order--it really is quite economical to order as a group! Anything that Amazon.de will ship to Canada, that is in stock, may be ordered, so browse away!
Feel free to ask me to help you make a selection! E.g. a page-a-day Tagesabreißkalender from publisher Harenberg is a great way to have daily exposure to a language you're learning!
Please contact me no later than Sunday, November 20 if you are interested in ordering something.

I will be returning to Victoria Tuesday after six months in Germany and I'm looking forward to seeing you again at the events I will organize. Also, with Christmas coming up, I'm once again providing others with an opportunity to join a group purchase from Amazon.de (see below).
I would like your input in scheduling events: if you've been inclined to come, but have found Friday evenings to not be suitable for you, I'd love to hear from you.
For November and December, I've only scheduled two evenings of German football. Once I've received some feedback, I will schedule some other activities, including German Games Night and Flimmerkiste.
German will indeed be spoken, great for anyone who'd like to improve or keep up their German, or just to make new friends through the German language. German speakers of all levels are welcome!
To view a calendar with these events directly, please visit Deutschfreunde.
Note that refreshments are now available at all events. Please RSVP if you intend to attend any events. Thank you!
Wir freuen uns auf Ihren Besuch!
Amazon.de Order
Products from Germany!
Amazon.de sells thousands of products and ships to Canada at a flat rate of 14 Euros per shipment. I will be coordinating an order again this year in order--it really is quite economical to order as a group! Anything that Amazon.de will ship to Canada, that is in stock, may be ordered, so browse away!
Feel free to ask me to help you make a selection! E.g. a page-a-day Tagesabreißkalender from publisher Harenberg is a great way to have daily exposure to a language you're learning!
Please contact me no later than Sunday, November 20 if you are interested in ordering something.
