About the event
It's already almost the end of a crazy 2021! There was a lot of uncertainty, stress, trying to start things back in spite of COVID, but there's also been a renewal of the human spirit: kindness, hope, and a drive to make dreams into a reality.
Let's end 2021 with an extraordinary meet-up in an extraordinary place here in Provence.
I'm talking about the beautiful & breathtaking 'La Maison des Chapitres' (www.lamaisondeschapitres.com).
It's going to be a wonderful evening with food, drinks, people, culture, art, and wonderment.
We will be hosted by Basil Galloway who has inherited this beautiful, restored hidden gem in the heart of Forcalquier. This charming home is now turned into a cultural hotspot where they host stays, art, music, cultural events, workshops, and a lot more.
As it's NOT a restaurant, we will be getting catering for food and drinks. Hence, this time we ask you to reserve your place in advance by paying for a spot.
Here are the details:
When: 17th December, 2021 ; Friday.
Time: 6 PM onwards.
Where: La Maison des Chapitres, 6 rue des Cordeliers, 04300 Forcalquier
Limit: 40 people.
Price: 15 euros / person
What You'll Get: Wonderful food prepared by one of our own members, Mansi from Mr Samosa! Drinks not included. You can buy drinks directly at the Maison des Chapitres.
Recommendations: The house is GORGEOUS with a capital G! If you've got time, come earlier to explore before the rest get there. If there are many people who'd like an exclusive tour of the place, we can organize a time and hopefully Basil will be your personal host!
Parking: This gem is in the centre-ville of Forcalquier. You will need to park nearby and walk to the place by foot.
Carpool: If you can't get to Forcalquier by yourself, worry not! We can carpool together. Just post or message me and we'll organize cars to come and leave together from around Manosque and to Forcalquier.
Payment: You can pay directly to me via cash, cheque or bank transfer. There is no 'official' system yet as this is the first time we're doing this! The payment will be mainly geared towards Mr Samosa to compensate for the delicious food made.
Please PM or email expatsinandaroundmanosque@gmail.com to reserve your place and transfer your payment.
This is truly a beautiful place which will be able to accommodate up to 40 very talkative people ;)
Hope to see you there!
