For the organizers of this Meetup, Glass Half Full is more than just the status of our drink glasses or a simple phrase - it is how we live our lives. There is always more to see and do in the world, more to learn, more friends to meet and more fun to be had. We always leave room for a little more, which is why we created the group Glass Half Full. Meetup has allowed us to make some amazing friends, learn more about the world and ourselves all while having a great time and we want to ensure that …

Who are we? Collectively, we are part of the largest percentage of the population, born between 1946 and 1964. We are strong women who are re-inventing age, seeing ourselves at least 12 years younger. We know who we are and what we want.  We are generally tired of social scenes where we are not as young as most,  but, certainly not "old"!  We wish we could just hang out, relax, and have fun with others our own age. We are on TOP of the proverbial "hill", not ready to start going downhill! We are …

The goal of this group is to explore and experience the unique culture of Portland and the northwest. Think of it as tourism for locals. About 50% of the people on every event are newcomers to Portland or to the group. It's a great way to meet new people while enjoying new experiences. I host at least 20 events on the calendar per month. Most of the events are done on foot, but some are simply showing up at a particular destination for fun. Events include: Dining and entertainment walks (highli …

I'm a hostess, promoter, coordinator, and matchmaker by nature. Since moving to Portland, I decided to make my joy my job, which is networking people and making beneficial bonds. I love to dance and make introductions, so this group is for people (singles, entrepreneurs, newcomers) looking to make new connections through me from all the networking I do already. I'll share all that I'm up to, over the weekends and hope to make many friends make more new friends, and perhaps even fall in love. Sin …

Hi, I'm Suzanne.  I'm involved in other meetup groups but can't seem to find activities on my side of town so I'm starting my own!! This is for anyone that is looking to develop new friendships while playing games, sharing food, having a cocktail, watching movies or even doing some type of crafty project. A lot of the meetups that I post will be in my home which is located in NE Portland around 82nd and NE Sandy or will be activities in this area of town.  Hope to meet you soon!

Nearly everyone has a "I drank too much tequila when I was in college" story, bad memories or aversions. And others, may go into a bar and be what we call, "try-curious" about tequila, but are intimated or confused by the many choices available. Tequila is such a dynamic, interesting, wonderfully rich spirit. There are so many excellent blends and for people who like fine wine or crafted beer, there are lots of similarities. Through tasting events, in a non-intimdating and welcoming way, we prov …

For all you foodie's out there!! Let's get together at restaurants all over the Vancouver, WA and Portland Metro area for lunch.

We also could do our own food tour of lets say 3 r …

On a practical level, this Portland social group is for lesbian/queer and queer-friendly women who have vitality and a strong sense of self. I say "practical" because I realize that most people use meetup casually, to meet others and find things to do from time to time. But ideally, I'd like to manifest a village of warriors. To me, a true warrior of modern times is a strong woman who has a healthy relationship with power. She speaks her truth, walks her own path, lives by principle instead of c …
