Hello, Gundo 👋 

Looking for something to do this weekend? We’ve got a whole variety of events (as always!) in town. There’s speed dating, brewery tattoos, auditions for a Netflix series… and if you’ve ever wanted to learn or play mahjong, this is your chance.

As always, if anything new pops up, we’ll share it on the Hello Gundo Instagram.
