Do sexy accents turn you on? Do you want to date someone whose morning reading includes Le Monde instead of the New York Times? Then Euromantic’s European speed dating event might be the cheapest around-the-world ticket you can buy. Adding an international twist to the speed-dating fad, New York Euro-singles outfit, Euromantic, has created a global sampler of twelve 5-minute dates in a manageable 2-hour package.
Arrive early for the pre-event mingle and you’ll have a chance to imbibe some liquid courage (translation: house drinks) and size up both the selection and the competition. The guest list is carefully balanced to ensure an appropriate ratio of men to women, and Europeans to Europhiles. But don’t let the Euro angle throw you off; this social experiment is open to nationals from Albania to Zambia and everything in between. And you don’t have to carry a foreign passport to be welcome here; as long as you’re an American interested in the spice other cultures might bring to friendships or relationships, you’ll feel right at home.
While European speed dating, much like its devotees, travels from venue to venue, the one this borderless correspondent attended took place at the Village’s grand dame of bordello-like décor, Madame X. The evening’s male hopefuls navigated the red velvet furniture trying to make meaningful bits and bobs of conversation before the stroke of 5 minutes. It’s surprisingly hard to have that many original short chats in quick succession, but the evening’s host and Euromantic founder Emilia Sixtensson does a great job of pre-event prep. Coming prepared with fodder for discussion is as easy as hewing to the etiquette and advice in her emails, and checking out BBC News’ website so you don’t mistake a conversation about the future of Europe with a reunion tour of an 80s rock band. Scoring your dates is easier than playing mini-golf; just check off the ladies or men you’d like to see again, and within 24 hours you’ll find out how good your intuition really is. Euromantic generally sponsors two European speed dating events per month, but check their website for more details.
