ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement.
DeleteThere were 8 people who attended and it was a positive experience.
We are very interested in doing this again in the coming weeks.
Will post the event on CouchSurfing, BeWelcome, this blog and our BikeSurfBerlin Facebook page.
It will probably be a "mixed" class next time.
