WHERE: Venturska 9

Hi everybody,

the next LessWrong meetup will be in "The tea room under-ground" (Cajovna v podzemi) at Venturska 9, Bratislava, in the city center. For questions, contact me at barbarabrezna@gmail.com.

Directions for people coming from Vienna: I recommend the connection by Blaguss bus from the busstop "Wien,Erdbergstrasse 202" departing at 16:10. The bus is directed towards Bratislava airport, but take off one stop earlier at 17:10. The name of the bus-stop is "Bratislava, Nový most", also called "Most SNP" , translated as New Bridge or Bridge of Slovak National Uprising. (Why the hell did I choose the bus-stop, which has two synonymous names ???) Walk from there according to the map where "Most SNP" is marked with an arrow.

Other options: The transportation ticket for 15 minutes (price 0,70 €) should be enough from either train station or main bus station of the city. From the Main bus station "Autobusova stanica Mlynske Nivy", you can use the bus 70 to "Most SNP". From the Main train station "Hlavna stanica", take the bus 93 to the stop "Zochova". From the train station "Petrzalka", take the bus 93 or 94 to the stop "Zochova", or bus 91 or 191 to "Most SNP". "Most SNP", "Zochova" and tea-house are marked with an arrow on the map.

See You there !

Barbara

Dear Lesswrongians, we cordially invite You to the first Lesswrong meetup in Bratislava ! We just were at the Rationality minicamp in California, met Eliezer and other awesome LessWrongians (and introduced the word "awesome" into our active vocabulary :-) ), and we would finally like to meet the Lesswrong fans in our area. For questions, write in the discussion under this announcement.

We are looking forward to see You !

BarbaraB and Viliam_Bur

 

Edit: I removed the contact data after the meetup, because the meeting was in my home.

Edit 2: The lesswrongians in our area can still contact me at barbarabrezna@gmail.com. We will try another meetup in October.
