📱 Personal Note

Apologies for the recent lack of emails and Instagram updates — I've been deeply immersed in developing Gulliver, an iOS app designed to make your life easier by curating all the free events in NYC. Now that the app is taking shape, I'm excited to return to writing this weekly. Gulliver ranks events by likes and includes everything from sample sales to run clubs, and all the best free activities in nyc.

I’d love for you all to check it out — even if you hate it, please give me your feedback! You can download here or search for “Gulliver” in the app store. ⭐️

As summer winds down, join us for an exclusive evening of networking and celebration at the stunning Maxwell Social in Tribeca.

On a personal note, I'm a big fan of Maxwell Social! I accidentally found myself there for a dating event on the 4th of July and ended up having an amazing time. I didn’t even realize it was a dating event—lmao—but the venue was a solid 10/10.

Duolingo is throwing the ultimate free pop-up where you can snag limited-edition plushies, T-shirts, backpacks, and more! Want to meet Duo? Come snap a pic with our unhinged green owl mascot. Got a 30+ day streak? Play games to win merch that you can't buy.

Join them at the most exclusive event that anyone can enter—as long as you do a Duolingo lesson and have a 1-day streak. It's a little bit of chaos, a lot of fun, and possibly your last chance to avoid the wrath of Duo.

I've been attending Club Chess for just over a year now. It's quite “scene-y”, which is why I don't often share their events. However, this week they're hosting at Le Bain on a Friday night. Even if you don't know how to play chess, you'll still appreciate the unique ambiance of being in a club where the game is in full swing… and chess in a hot tub…
