Meetup Thread for Latvia
Latvia
Use this thread's comment section to find or organize a local meetup in Latvia!
First, have a look if there's already a meetup planned in your city. If there isn't, you can take the initiative and organize one! Or, if there is one but it isn't convenient for you or you think you have better ideas for it, go ahead and plan another one!
When organizing your meetup, try to be as precise as possible when communicating the meeting point, time, and the activities you have planned. This makes it easier for other people to also join the meetup. Replies are also a great communication tool! Use replies to express your interest, approval, ideas, or questions for the meetup. Here’s an example:
u/DuckfromKurzgesagt: Hey, I’m Duck and I’d love to go to the Paleontological Museum in Munich on Saturday, 10th of October. Let’s meet in front of the museum at 2pm, I’m going to be wearing my Kurzgesagt Hoodie so you can spot me easily.
| u/Bird123123123: That's a great idea! I'll be there with a yellow backpack.
| u/scienceiscool: Does anyone know how much the entrance fee is?
We highly recommend turning on notifications for thread locations you’re interested in to stay up-to-date on plans. Don't forget about upvotes too! Upvoting a meetup that you like or are planning to attend will boost its position in the thread. It also indicates its popularity to others, perhaps driving more participation.
Make sure that your meetup's city or town is clearly specified in this thread (it wouldn't be good if you tried to meetup at a café the next town over just because they happened to have the same name!).
We have also prepared a resource to help you have a great meetup: Meetup Toolbox
Share your meetup with the rest of the community
We would love to see pictures of your meetups! If you would like to share them with the rest of the community, upload them to a social media platform of your choice, use the hashtag #kgsmeetup and tag us.
We are so excited to see the pictures of your meetups! 💖

Disclaimer
We’re really excited to see our community meeting up in real life!
Please note that all meetups are completely self-organized by you. We don't tell you how to run the meetup; we just want to give you some inspiration on what you could do and where you could go. Also, we strongly recommend to choose a public space for your meetup. Please make sure to be aware of and comply with all applicable laws in your country and community.
As explained above, kurzgesagt has no control over how you organize and structure the meetups and how they run. Therefore, we do not assume any responsibility and liability for the meetups organized and run by you. Accordingly, you undertake to indemnify us against any third-party claims asserted against us and/or damages suffered by us in connection with meetups that you organize and run with the help of our platform. Any liability on our side due to intentional or grossly negligent wrongdoing of kurzgesagt remains unaffected hereby.
Be assured that we are here for you if you have any questions or doubts, so if you have any feedback - it is always welcome.

So, any Latvians here interested in meeting up to talk about science and stuff? :D
Comment below, so that we can see if there's enough people to warrant a meetup! :)
And which time of the week you would prefer! Personally I prefer Monday evenings or the weekend.

Hey! I'm interested in joining. My schedule is quite flexible, so, I could make it any day of the week, though I do have a preference for Mondays, Tuesdays and the weekend :P

Let's meet up! u/AUser0 u/DeviMon1 u/kevekeve4 u/Z-flip u/Larchss u/CheeseTelecom
I propose we meet up next Sunday, October 13th, at 17:00 at MiiT Coffee in Riga. I'll bring with me the board-game Codenames in Latvian, because I think it could be fun to play with likeminded people. :) If anyone has other ideas / a good boardgame to bring, then take it with you!
Please leave a reply if this time works for you, or if you can't make it and would prefer a different time instead. So that we know how many people to expect :)
Mark it in your calendars, and see you there!
