Title: Low Countries meet up?
Post by: Joaquim00 on July 19, 2013, 03:09:50 PM
(Let's see whether I get any responses...)

Hello Low Countries folks  :meeple:. I have moved back to the Netherlands recently. Would anyone in the area be interested in a friendly Carc meet up?  (I know there are forum members in the Netherlands, but I don't know how many are 'active'.)  I am based in Arnhem. Netherlands, Belgium and Nordrhein-Westfalen are day-trip-able for me, and I can venture further from time to time.

I hope you get replies from where you're aiming (I'm in Australia)!  :-)

I'm guessing I'm not within range of your "venture further from time to time"...

Australia is within range!  (My in-laws are in SA, and my folks are in NZ.)

Make sure you check out Cairns then!  :-)  There's a good bunch of board gamers here but I've yet to convince them to play Carcassonne!

Hi Joaquim00,
we have our fan-meeting at Burg Konradsheim - 24.11.2013 - Carcassonne-on-Tour.
I know it is a long time, but there you can meet the members from CarcF + CarcC - mostly German. Even Trebuchet - from the Netherlands will visit our event.

Also our author Klaus-Juergen Wrede will sit on the same table and play with us our fan-expansions and the new... will be publish...   ;D

Thank you for the reminder :D kettlefish; I will try to get there.  (I see that Carcassonne-on-Tour is mostly in the north and/or east for the rest of the year...)  That Burg looks slightly out of the way, but I can probably train and then cycle there.

I used to have to go to New Guinea quite often, and sometimes I stopped in Cairns on the way.  Cairns is such a lovely place.  I hope to be there again sometime in the future, harvster.

Joaquim00 is an Aucklander :), Andy.  But then I live on the other side of the earth now, and I don't get many chances to go back to the other side of the earth... :(

Hi! I live in Den Haag and I'd be keen to meet. I'm French-Canadian and I've been living in Holland for 5 years now.  My ex-gf is a kiwi so I know a bit about the country. I'll be in Essen too for Spiel '13 so maybe we can meet there otherwise let's organise something.
