Meeting fellow Barcelona-based translators! Mar 18, 2015

Hello everyone!
I'm looking forward to meeting my fellow Barcelona-based translators. Once we have a basic headcount, I will find somewhere to get some tapas and drinks where we can meet and discuss translating, business, life and leisure!
This is a great way to network and meet the translators in your city, so we don't feel so alone behind our computers!

Change of date Mar 20, 2015

Hello fellow translators! I changed the date to the 15th so that we have a bit more time for translator confirmations. I hope that's okay!

Hi all Mar 27, 2015

Thank you for organising this, Maeva!
If we decide to meet during lunch hours, could we maybe do it on a Saturday?
If it's on a Friday, I most likely won't be able to make it during the day. Otherwise Friday evening is ok for me.
Please keep me posted, thanks!

Where are the other Barcelona based translators? Apr 9, 2015

It's April and only 7 of us have signed up so far.
There must be more Proz translators based in 'our' area! Is there a way to get their attention?
I must admit that I stumbled on this event by chance too. Would a reminder in a discussion forum do perhaps? Or are there other, standard ways?
I still assume it will be on Friday May 15. If it's on Sat, or Sun, I can't be because of another event taking place that weekend.
Looking forward to meeting up with you all!

Hello everyone! Apr 20, 2015

Hi everyone!
Thanks for the interest in this powwow. I guess we are a small amount, and I was looking for a place that will offer a good group menu otherwise we can just get tapas. I see there is a mix between wanting lunch or evening. I was thinking dinner, but if lunch on Saturday is better for everyone else I am happy with that too.

For me it would have to be Friday Apr 20, 2015

I will only be able to assist on Friday I'm afraid. Sat and Sun are fully booked with other activities. I would prefer lunch time but might be able to skip another event.

Friday evening or Saturday lunch Apr 20, 2015

For me Friday lunch is close to impossible due to my work schedule, dinner or Saturday lunch are preferable.

Any time Apr 21, 2015

Hi all,

I would prefer Friday evening, but I could also make Friday or Saturday at lunch time, if this is better for the rest of the group.

thanks!

Diana

Friday evening Apr 21, 2015

Okay great, it looks like it will be for Friday evening then! I will look for a place with a good group menus or simply nice tapas, and will get back by the end of the week on this.

The menu and additional guests May 15, 2015

Hello,
many thanks for organizing this meeting!
I have a couple of questions about the menu and bringing other people:
1) If I go to the event, is it necessary to have the set menu?
2) Can I bring someone (who is not a proz member)?
My apologies for bothering you with questions so close to the event.
With best wishes,
Calum Riach
