This group is for those who enjoy the foods, languages, activities, the arts, etc. of Asian cultures! This group is for people of all ethnic backgrounds! I think it's always better to share fun experiences and noticed that there are no groups in this area for people who just simply enjoy Asian cultures so, I decided to remedy this! Many of our members either have spent time traveling to or have lived in, other countries. There will be opportunities for outings to different locations, restaurants …

This is a group I am starting in advance of several recreational trips I am planning to make to France. It is my desire to collect a group of snobby, psuedo-intelectual, quazi-cosmopolitan, wine-drinking French enthusiasts to study the language and culture of France with. I fully anticipate meetings evolving into wine hangovers and grossly inadequate French conversation. Maybe we can get a speaker to give a lecture on French Cuisine, or we can spend a meeting watching a French movie. Generally t …

We're a group of folks who just can't get enough of Italian culture: the food, wine, arts, cinema, language, automobiles, sports and the overall "dolce vita." Our goal is to get as close to Italy as possible without leaving AZ, immersing ourselves in all things Italian. Knowledge of Italian is optional. With food, we'll try to explore "alta cucina" by dining at restaurants that represent current Italian cuisine and are a departure from the hackneyed "red sauce" menus. Although there's nothing wr …

This private meetup group is for younger and adventurous women that identify as bisexual and/or lesbian and are single, dating, commited, and otherwise. We started this group to meet women with similar interests and who are within the 30-45 age group.
