We would like to extend our very special greetings to our members and their families who are leaving Belgrade this summer. We wish you all the best on your future journeys. Bon voyage - may the IWC Belgrade always keep a place in your hearts!

And last but not least, we wish you all a relaxing holiday, sunny days and many beautiful moments with your loved ones. Enjoy your free time and recharge your batteries,  we hope to see you again for new ventures in September!

IWC Social Group

11.07.24 at 10:30 | Location to be confirmed

We are delighted to unveil our new and shiny IWC Social Group. It's a direct descendant of the New Members group, born as we sat in a Dorcol cafe, dreaming of all the things we can do together, and, oh, the places we can go.

Turns out, we all miss chances to get to know each other better, or to have conversations beyond small talk. So we skipped the whole visualisation and manifestation practice and scheduled the first meet-up, which is coming up as early as July 11th. 

If you are also stranded in Belgrade during the summer holidays, join us. Sink into a cafe armchair to the soothing sounds of your fellow members chatting to each other. And then relax, dream, and maybe do a little planning. 

To register, join the “IWC New Members Group” on WhatsApp. More details will follow after the registration. Dušica Stocklin and Marine von Koenig are Social Group coordinators.

IMPORTANT

• Open to 12 IWC members (more or less)

• Each member has to cover the cost of food and beverage

The second stage is the use of prepared paper for making collages.
