The Syndicate

Hello lovely people of The Syndicate! There has been some chatter about interest in reviving this finally after the long saga that has been COVID is finally easing up and allowing people to travel and see each other again. So this is really a thread to do an interest check and then move into discussion of time frames and locations. Before we get too far down that road though, let's just see who might be interested in attending a Syndicate Meet Up in EUROPE -- somewhere between London, Paris, Barcelona or even Budapest cos why not?????????????????? if you want to add more details like "i am employed by the state and only have time off between these dates" that's ok or, "i live in london and cant travel further than london" or "i live in paris but willing to meet at any main city cos inner euro flights are cheap as HELL dude"

god speed

i live in london and cant travel further than london

That was a joke because I'm super funny...

...but is also basically true actually. We've already planned a big trip back to Canada this summer so I can't just, like, abandon my wife and fly to Barcelona randomly as well. If people were coming here I'd take time to come hang out, but the moment advance planning and distance comes in I'm less likely to be able to do it.

Take your wife!

I’m a yes in spirit but it is definitely a maybe depending on the details.

I’d love to be able to travel to meet up, but realistically I doubt I’d be able to make it if it weren’t in London due to my family situation. It’s very difficult and stressful for us to travel.

I likely wouldn't be able to unless it coincided with when I'm already in Paris, though I'm not entirely sure when that would be.

I'm not really planning on making those dates public knowledge either, so that presents a bit of a roadblock.

Also, there might be severe limitations in my ability to attend an event while I'm there.

And that's not even considering my general interest one way or another...

Not sure she cares enough to meet any of you.


Vancouver & and the Island; stopover in Ottawa on the way back to see my grandparents.

Syn is in Vancouver!!!

Anyway it looks like a London thing is better and me and Johanna and Rask will just have to take the train there

It'll be an adventure. Never took the train there.

I’ve taken the train from London to Paris twice and both times fell asleep within minutes and woke up there haha
stinky kids ruining my ability to sleep on public transport

Sounds like a plan!

East European here, hard to travel due to work and RL

I exist and sometimes I travel. It has happened before.
