Travel
Public transport: You can purchase a 5 day ticket for all kinds of public transport (underground, trolleys, buses). It costs roughly 22 EUR. Alternatively, you can purchase a ticket for the train with a time limit on, 60 minutes (or 90 minutes in the evenings) and this costs 1 EUR.

Social Meets
NOTICE: Please break out into groups for dinner. It's easier than trying to get everyone in one venue.
