If you want to practice your German, call Peter Kurze at (202)408-4900, ext. 110. This is for good speakers of German. Most of the participants are native speakers. I felt over my head when I sat "bei dem echten Stammtisch".

If you are just a student of German and don't think you can "mitmachen" with the real Germans, then consider joining my stammtisch, which consists of Americans who don't speak German very well but want to learn by talking to each other. Call me (Mike) at (703)922-5698, or email me. Natürlich, we meet at the Brick.
