Community & Conversation: Dinner Party

Portland, ME

Looking to meet new people and learn from other open-minded people? We are hosting weekly dinner parties to create space for community and conversation in Portland. Everyone has questions, especially after the challenges of the past two years. And with the world so polarized right now, we all need a safe place to ask our questions without being judged. These dinner parties are meant to be a place to invite your friends, family, and co-workers to explore these questions of life, faith, and meaning, and to share your perspective in a relaxed environment. Meet new people, share a meal and a coffee or beer/wine together, watch a short film together about a life topic that relates to the faith/meaning, then break into smaller table groups to share your perspectives and learn from other's perspectives.All perspectives are welcome. No questions are off limits. Each week we'll feature a local brewery. And we'll also have a wine region of the week (Italian, Chilean). A few of the nights, we'll host a coffee cupping or wine tasting or beer tasting from a Thompson's Point establishment.

Time To Travel Your World

Portland, ME

**“Not all who wander are lost”**-J.R.R. Tolkien **Welcome to Time To Travel Your World!** Recently returning from the best adventure ever, I decided to start a Meetup for likeminded wanderers. See the photos of Thailand & Cambodia! What a terrific Time!! This Meetup welcomes all travelers and wanderers who are seeking adventure in the company of others. We are singles and couples, working and/or retired, who have a passion for seeing the world, experiencing other cultures, meeting new friends. This is a group of folks who become friends as we travel together, exploring new sites & cultures. We are adventurers who may go solo but not alone to see the world. Let’s wander together. My goal is to promote responsible, fun travel where we will see the world, and maybe make it better by protecting the environment, supporting local communities, and promoting animal welfare. This was my experience in Thailand & Cambodia (see the elephant photos!) as we walked through ancient temples, explored the jungle in search of elephants, had a chance to learn about organic rice farms, snorkeled in the Phi Phi islands--all led by local tour guides who love their land. And I am eager for more. I met other travelers who were initially strangers-who became friends as we shared these incredible adventures. * I hope you are eager to join us. The next trip will be to Egypt. If you want to know more, check out **www.grouptoursite.com/tours/Egypt-with-dorothy/** * You can also reach me at **cady.dorothy@gmail.com** for more info if you have questions. * Also see my **FB page Time to Travel.** Looking forward to meeting all of you who have signed up for this Meetup! We will meet online and in person for information & planning. **Where do YOU want to wander?**
