The meetup for next weekend – discussed in this earlier post – is on! Here are the details:
- Place: Café Assorti at 1800 Wilson Blvd. Arlington VA
- Located between the Rosslyn and Courthouse metro stops in Northern Virginia, this cafe features Kazakh dishes and pastries (think Turkish meets Russian meets delicious). Parking shouldn’t be too much of a problem if you’re driving in – just look a street or two over off of Wilson. It should be a nice place to sit and chat.
- Time & Date: 2 pm ish, Sunday December 6th
- Aditya and I thought that, given that people are coming from different areas, it’d be best if we don’t do a meal at restaurant at a specific time. This way if you run into traffic (oh, DC traffic), it’s not that big of a deal – just come in when you can, order up a pastry and coffee, and join in the conversation. We’ll be there from 2pm from whenever things run down. If it keeps going for awhile, well, Ray’s Hell-Burger is just across the street for an early dinner. Warning: breakfast (which features strawberry and cream crepes!) is only served ’til 3 pm at Cafe Assorti, so don’t arrive too late.
- Who: Anyone!
- Anyone is welcome to come, whether you’re new to this blog or not, in an intercultural relationship or not, or whatever. Feel free to bring friends if they’d like to sample Kazakh food.
If you’ve got any questions, let me know below!

Hi guys.
Nice new format of the blog, GG. And nice initiative to have people on this blog meet up.
I am located pretty far away from D.C, I shall not be in the area anytime soon.
However it would be pretty awesome if you were to make a short video of the meetup and post the link to it.
To prevent breach of privacy, avoid addressing each other and using each others names in the video, and limit the posted video to the inter cultural relationship talk.
kind regards,
LF
