We will gather in front of the Eiffel Tower, at this [http://turl.ca/888 exact location]: from anytime during the day until around 23:00 (or later even maybe). We are still calling for adventurous hosts from Paris to show up and spontaneously host all of us - but you might want to bring your tent!
We welcome the Paris community to host us hitchhikers, coming to Paris on 888. Please come to Champs de Mars [turl.ca/888 here] and join in to welcome us! ==Helping outCoordinate!==
The '''888 Project''' seeks to ask you to hitchhike from all corners of Europe and beyond (whether from [[Belfast]], [[Istanbul]], [[Helsinki]] or [[Lisbon]]) to arrive at the Eiffel Tower - this world-renowned French lighthouse - in [[Paris]] on 888, August 8th, 2008. Participate in the first European Hitchhiking Week and Day and take part in the open space day on Saturday: "How to live a nomad-life", on hitchhiking, sustainable travel and hospitality exchange, with games, workshops, skill-sharing and knowledge exchange.

__TOC__'''Help organising! Things to do:'''
* Organise a local [[Project 888/Meetings|Project 888 Meeting]] in your country or city to team up with hitchhikers. Use an [[888_PROJECT_Meetings|invitation]], and adapt it to your local context, organise a location (your home, your host's home, a local bar, etc), invite other people through your favourite [[Finding_accommodation#Hospitality_exchange_networks|hospitality exchange]] community, etc, and ''[http://www.hitchwiki.org/en/index.php?title=Project_888/Meetings&action=edit add] your meeting''.
* Translate the [[888_PROJECT_Press|press-release]] and ''spread'' it.
** Think of what you would like to learn and share on Saturday during the [[888_PROJECT_Workshops|Open Space]] day
