Shabbos encounters

On Friday night I went to this event organized by the ECJS and the UEJB, and I met the Ashkenazi Chief Rabbi of Israel, Rav Yona Metzger, which was quite interesting. He spoke eloquently and it was a very pleasant Shabbos dinner. I also met some friends and I made the acquaintance of several fascinating people: the head of the Transatlantic Institute, an editor at the European Jewish Press, the press officer of the third largest parliamentary group in the European Parliament, an assistant to a Polish MEP (member of the European Parliament) and many more. We had a lot of stimulating discussions and my head is still spinning from it all.
