Wednesdays Taipei Language Exchange Social Game Party 每週三 台北国際交流会 活動

Someone is halfway through a sentence in Mandarin, gets stuck on a tone, and the whole table jumps in to help. Somebody laughs, the game moves on, and that's the night.

Games first, then the talking starts

This is a weekly social in Taipei for people new to the city and people who've always lived here. You're not stuck with a textbook or a worksheet. There are games, which give everyone something to do with their hands and an easy reason to start talking.

• Meet new people. You can come alone, because the games put you at a table with others.

• Make friends from Taiwan and from abroad. Locals and internationals mix at the same tables.

• Practice a language. Swap words, fix each other's mistakes and try the phrase you've been too nervous to use.

• Have fun. That's half the point ;)

If you've just moved to Taiwan, this is an easy way to meet the locals and start feeling settled. If you're from here, it's your chance to show newcomers around and maybe pick up some slang in another language.

每週三，用遊戲交朋友

認識新朋友、結交台灣與國際朋友、練習語言，順便玩得開心。這個聚會的初衷很簡單：讓外國朋友和台灣接上線，幫助他們更快融入在地生活。

不用準備，也不用擔心自己講得不夠好。一起玩遊戲，自然就聊開了。

Where to find us 地點

The venue is in Zhongzheng District, on a lane off Xinsheng South Road.

Bring a friend, or come alone and leave with a few new ones. See you Wednesday. 週三見！
