Join us this coming Saturday (09 July) for a cozy get-together in warm and sunny St. Petersburg!

* City Quest. Armed with a map, we'll follow a mysterious route through the heart of our city to hear about the strange and unexplained events.
* Restaurant. Fine wine and a good meal hand in hand with a nice conversation.
* Boat trip. If there's enough interest, we'll book a water ride to cap off the evening.
* Bonus activity for 10 July for those who crave more :)

The event starts at 16:00 at the Palace Square. Entry fee is 1000 rub paid on site. Restaurant & boat trip are extras.

2022-06-29 17:19:44 Hello, friends!

Since the weather in St. Petersburg is so nice, we're thinking of getting together next weekend.

On Saturday, 9 July, we'll first do something interesting in the evening, and then sit & relax with a glass of wine over a nice conversation. We might catch a water ride at night and for those who wants to continue on Sunday, we'll have something planned.

We understand that the dates are very close, so we'll make a poll to see how many guests we can collect. If there is enough interest, we'll make the program shortly.

It won't be as big of an event as last year, but still a welcome evening in a good company that we haven't had for so long! Open / Comment

Hello everyone, the summer is in full swing and our fellow alum Pavel Zhelvis has come up with a great initiative for the community:

I am Pavel Zhelvis, UC Berkeley and University of Pittsburgh graduate.

A lot of people expressed desire to join an MBA sailing team. I am giving the basic information and if you think you might join some time, please join my chat for detailed discussion. I am a licensed skipper with 17 years sailing experience in Croatia, Turkey, Greece, Canary Islands, Palau (Pacific Ocean), Thailand and Antarctic.

To start with, I am considering forming teams for July-August-September in Croatia and October-November in Turkey. For Croatia, it will be Saturday to Saturday weekly trips, for Turkey they might be more flexible. The trips will be on non-profit expeditions styles basis. Budget wise I plan to stay within 2000 Euro per person per week in high season (July-August) net of transportation costs and less in other times. Please keep in mind, that the yacht cabins mostly have double beds, and one cabin with two bank beds at best. There are also extra sleeping options in forecabins and in saloon, alas less comfortable.

Below are the examples of the boats I have chartered earlier:

2 years I’ve been trying to run away from pandemics, war, economy. The thuth is… you cannot run away from life, but you can make it worth living.

And making it worth living are other people around you. Surround yourself with people that share you passions and goals, even if it might seem random at first.

Meanwhile we are over 2000 total 1-2-1 meetings in our MBA community random coffee since the start of pandemics. 25% of our community participates in it.

Don’t forget to join random coffee to continue to connect with MBA’s around the world. @RandomCoffee_MBA_bot
