ProZ.com powwow: Almoço pós-pandemia (novo título)

ALMOÇO PÓS-PANDEMIA (SUBSTITUINDO O SHOW DE TALENTOS)
Sábado, dia 14 de maio de 2022
Das 12h às 15h

ESTE EVENTO FOI ADIADO TRÊS VEZES, DEVIDO AO CORONAVÍRUS e, agora, para não cancelarmos, fomos obrigadas a mudar o seu formato. Compreensivelmente, a família da Angela Levy ainda não se sente segura para fazermos uma reunião na casa delas e, então, para marcar o começo da nossa volta à vida normal, estamos organizando um almoço para nos reencontrarmos.
Vamos ver se dará certo em outra data fazermos nosso show de talentos! :)
----------------------------------

Então, com a um índice de vacinação de 90% na cidade de São Paulo e as taxas bem reduzidas de novos casos (“Números do site Our World in Data apontam cobertura vacinal mais ampla do que EUA, Reino Unido, Espanha, Alemanha e França”, “De acordo com a Secretaria Municipal de Saúde, a cidade de São Paulo teve no dia 2 de abril o primeiro dia sem mortes causadas pela Covid-19 desde março de 2020.”), sentimo-nos tranquilas em realizar esse almoço.

É claro que é melhor tomarmos precauções como evitar beijos e abraços, ninguém quer ser responsável por transmitir nem que seja um resfriado! 😊

Acabei de fazer uma reserva no restaurante Ráscal da Alameda Santos, para 30 pessoas (ver dados abaixo). Eles não costumam fazer reserva aos sábados, pois têm um fluxo muito grande de clientes, mas abriram uma exceção na condição que ao menos 90% do grupo já esteja lá nesse horário, ou seja, É PRECISO SER PONTUAL para garantir lugar...

A comanda será individual, ou seja, se só quer comer um salgadinho e tomar uma cerveja, tudo bem, se quiser optar pelo buffet completo, tudo bem, assim cada um pode se adaptar às suas necessidades de dieta e/ou orçamentárias.

A comida deles é FANTÁSTICA, com várias opções vegetarianas, para quem preferir.

Local: Restaurante Ráscal
Endereço: Alameda Santos, 870 – Bela Vista (a um quarteirão da Av. Paulista)
Horário: 12h00 (vamos ser pontuais, o restaurante não vai segurar a mesa para quem não estiver lá, já foi difícil eles aceitarem a reserva)
Cardápio: https://www.rascal.com.br/restaurante/cardapio-sao-paulo/

O que é um Powwow? É só um encontro informal entre colegas, onde a gente se conhece, reencontra, troca ideias, relaxa... Há muitos anos participo desses encontros do ProZ e fiz grandes amizades, parcerias e até surgiram oportunidades de trabalho. É bom arejar a cabeça e mudar de ambiente de vez em quando.

Esperamos você!


Obrigada!
Um abraço,
Isabel Vidigal e equipe

What is it like to go to a Powwow? Oct 1, 2020

I don’t know what’s it like to go to a powwow. Is there videos of past events somewhere? I always want to go to different countries on business if I can afford it and if it is worth spending money to be there. I wish I would meet in person other translators to exchange our experiences! But now with this virus... Is this realistic to want something like that, I wonder... ?
What about you? Have you been to a powwow before?

Powwow Nov 14, 2020

Dear Marieta,
It is great to go to a powwow, you are sure to meet people and do networking. I am a regular powwow goer and have organised Powwows in Lorena, Guarulhos, São Caetano and São Paulo. The frequency of powwows has declined somewhat but they are still regularly held. The best known is the Seaside Powwow (CSPW) in Santos which this year (pandemic allowing) will reach its 16th edition.

Dear Marieta,
It is great to go to a powwow, you are sure to meet people and do networking. I am a regular powwow goer and have organised Powwows in Lorena, Guarulhos, São Caetano and São Paulo. The frequency of powwows has declined somewhat but they are still regularly held. The best known is the Seaside Powwow (CSPW) in Santos which this year (pandemic allowing) will reach its 16th edition. (Santos is a beach town near São Paulo, famous for its beach, coffee museum, (overpriced) fish market, historical 'bonde' (tram), and Santos FC where Pelé and a famous fall guy (now with PSG) once played)
Most powwows are Saturday lunches at restaurants, although there have been some at night and even at translators' homes (in the party room of their building). Attendance ranges from one (I scheduled a powwow in São Caetano and nobody came) to 30 (the latest seaside powwow).
Powwows are usually for socialising and networking only. I believe that in Europe powwows include guest speakers but this is not common here. So I don't think it would be cost-effective to come to Brazil for a two-hour powwow - unless you plan to visit the country which has a lot to offer, like the wonderful beaches of Rio de Janeiro, the Marvellous City, or even organise a course for the translators here.
My suggestion would be to come to one of Brazil's big translation events, either Proft or the ABRATES Conference (next one scheduled for 2021, pandemic permitting). These last two or three days, and are much bigger than the average powwow (700 people attend ABRATES). Most events have at least one powwow associated with them. At the ABRATES event, there was a even a city tour around historical São Paulo with a stop for a coffee, organised by famous translator Isabel Vidigal. There is a fee for these big events, the most expensive being the ABRATES conference. We also have important international speakers participating in these major events. Judy Jenner and Maryam Abdi are just two famous names who have been here recently.
Powwows, on the other hand, have no participation fee, just what you eat/drink and any travel/accommodation costs.
You could also organise a Powwow in Bulgaria. Basically you just choose a restaurant, set a date, and open the list so interested parties may sign up and say whether they will attend (Yes/Maybe/No). Then you call the restaurant and reserve a table (if necessary) and wait for the people to come. Participation or organisation of powwows gives you BrowniZ points but now with restriction of services for non-paying members BrowniZ are not much use. In the good old days you could use BrowniZ for things like bidding for jobs.
I'll try to post a link of one powwow that I have organised, with photos. (Not all powwows have photos posted)
If you do decide to visit Brazil, o Brasil te aguarda de braços abertos! (Brazil awaits you with open arms)

To Marieta, what is a powwow. Sep 23, 2021

Marieta, thanks for asking about the Powwow. As you can see, we changed again the date of this Powwow because nobody wants to have health problems in the middle of the pandemic. Usually, Powwows are just a get-together in any place (restaurant, bar, open-air activity) as an excuse to meet old friends or new people, to get information from colleagues, make new friends, make new partnerships. This one would be special because we are planning to do it at Angela Levy's place (she is about ninety yea... See more

This one would be special because we are planning to do it at Angela Levy's place (she is about ninety years old, a very sweet and happy lady and tells interesting stories!) in the form of a Talent Show. Only 10 people would have time to present their show because we want to have time to talk, interact, and eat/drink. It would be great to have you here, but it is better to wait until we are closer to the event's date to see how things will be then.icon_smile.gifCollapse

Notify people Jan 3, 2022

Is there any way I can notify people of this angelalevyistic event? Two budding translators, one SP and one RJ, not sure if they have ProZ profiles.

Ask them to create a ProZ profile and them they will be able to register for this powwow.

Talvez seja possível um lugar onde da para sentar fora (ainda não me sinto muito tranquila com a pandemia, e estou evitando lugares fechados com muita gente....)

Oi Birgit, vou ver se dá para reservar em algum lugar com bastante espaço, talvez mais aberto, vamos ver o que encontro, estamos a uma semana e meia do evento, mas já acho que está tranquilo, mais de 90% da população da cidade completamente vacinada, só teve uma morte por Covid ontem... Vai, queria ver vocês lá!!

Bom almoço! May 14, 2022

Olá, colegas! Estava super animada para ir, mas estou com uma gripe chatinha e, como o programa é comer, melhor deixar pra uma próxima. Espero que aproveitem bastante! Um abraço!
