There are a lot of Esperanto events coming up over the summer:
http://eventoj.hu/2013.htm . The biggest one is the Universala Kongreso in Iceland (already almost 1000 sign-ups), and the Internacia Junulara Kongreso in Israel, the Somera Esperanto Studado in Slovakia and the Internacia Junulara Semajno in Hungary with 200+ participants each. I will not have time to attend these, but I'm teaching a weekend Esperanto course next weekend and I will co-organize the Junulara E-Semajno which is a large event taking place for one week around New Year's in Poland. I can recommend this event to anyone! I'm still discussing details of the Berlin polyglot conference with Richard; it will either be a large 7-day event in English but with many borrowings from Esperanto culture (I want it to be much like the JES), or a 2 or 3-day event with program in Esperanto. Either way it will cater to polyglots and there will be lectures on language-learning, on linguistics, mini-courses of languages and so on. I don't actually expect the participants to be all that different, other than in quantity, because some of the most well-known polyglots speak Esperanto and indicated interest in an Esperanto-based polyglot event.

Oh, that sounds excellent. I will keep the date in my agenda. I don't speak Esperanto at
all but I guess it will work out even for me. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Looks like it will be an event with most of the lectures in English. 4 full program days,
exact dates are still being discussed but it looks like April or May 2014. Please join the Facebook group if you'd like updates: https://www.facebook.com/groups/133229626870853/ 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Thanks for asking, partner ;) Life kind of took over lately: a longish period of extreme and incessant overtime followed by a quick trip overseas have left me completely drained, with little strength or motivation for languages... But, it's slowly coming back: I resumed my Japanese tutoring sessions after a 2/3-month hiatus (glad to see I'm still doing ok), practised a bit of Romanian with a friend (which she qualified as "elegant"; I otherwise enjoy listening to the podcast Sceptici în România), and I've been reading some German (in particular, the philosophy-themed magazine "Hohe Luft" that I've been enjoying). 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Ich habe ein sehr interessantes Gespräch mit Hannah Arendt gefunden, das ich bisher 2 oder 3 mal zugehört
habe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsoImQfVsO4 Diese Frau spricht sehr eloquent über ihr Leben und das macht dieses stundenlange Gespräch ein ausgezeichnetes Beispiel von deutlich gesprochenem Deutsch. Ach, wenn ich nur so eloquent sprechen könnte... I would also like to recommend a nice iPhone, iPod, iPad recording app that just came out: Recordium. It allows for efficient splicing of sound recordings, and you can add links, pictures, searchable notes, etc. Why not use it to make a recording and email it to your language partner? (Don't tell my partner, I haven't sent her one yet either...) 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Awesome! Not sure if you're following the Facebook group (official homepage and mailing list are under
construction), but it will be an English event with 4 full days plus the chance to arrive in the evening before / leave in the morning after. It will probably be at the end of May, there's a poll about the date in the Facebook group. We'd love to have you give a presentation, Iversen!
