Hi,

Would you like to have a coffee, organize a dinner or find people for activities in Puerto Rico?

To help you meet people and find outings in Puerto Rico, we launched a Gatherings and Events section in Puerto Rico: you can now follow whats going on in your area and make the most of your time off.

You can also create events and organize a gathering with the Expat.com members.

How to create a gathering?

On the Events in Puerto Rico page, click on Post an event.
Fill in the form with the details related to the gathering: date, place, hour and post your event.

Its now time to invite the other members! You can opt for a public event or a private one (Invitation or Invitation plus).

To send invites, click on Invite friends on your event page and select who you wish to invite.

Get informed of who is coming through this page and get in touch with the other members or add pictures of the events in the comments.

A photo album dedicated to the event will then be created.

What do you think of this new feature?

Thanks,

Julien

I wish something like this existed in October.
Does it allow posting pictures and videos directly or just as links? (links are a pain IMHO since you need to post them elsewhere and just bring the link)

When I actually make it there totally driven by my escrow process here in California. I'm guessing early April right now. Would love to meet forum members when I get there. Great idea.

Hi Tonie,

My escrow still hasn't closed here so I'm a ways away. I will keep following for future.

Not a problem Karl, I hope that everything turns out ok for you and you make down here sooner rather than later.

Take care,

Tonie.
