Step into the laid-back charm of Cosy Cave Conversations, a Parisian philosophy chat that's more relaxed than a cat in a sunbeam 🐈 🌞 Gather with a bunch of easygoing souls, share thoughts on the good life and its mysteries, enjoy a beverage, and have a good laugh.
A few things to be aware of:
- Please don't show up without a spot (we aim to keep it cosy and we always have a waiting list these days)
- If it's your first event, it's essential you turn up on time (7pm) so you understand how it works, what the topic is and don't interrupt the session
- The session runs from 7pm to 8:30pm where we focus on philosophy, but don't worry, you'll have a chance to socialise, introduce yourselves and continue the chat after the session
- Please read the tips below for a good session before coming along
How does it work? We embrace the café-philo method — proposing intriguing topics on the night (up to 3), choosing one together, and diving into everything from consciousness, community, death and god, while managing to keep it light and easy 🦦
Forget the stiff atmosphere, we're all about small groups (~10 people) and unpretentious chats with no homework required. No need for a philosophy degree, just bring your open mind and a dash of curiosity.
Join us every Wednesday 19h-20h30 at Les Acolytes — because pondering the profound is better with good company (and a pint). See you there! 🎉
A few tips for a great session:
- come with an open and curious mind 🧠
- prioritise listening to others and asking questions without interrupting or long monologues 👂
- we put a strong emphasise on giving everyone a chance to contribute to the discussion, so try and be aware of how much space and time you take up when speaking 🐻❄️
- we prioritise intellectual accessibility: this is not an academic group therefore we ask to keep any philosophy jargon to a minimum and instead explain any concepts in plain english 🤠
- we are an apolitical group that focuses on discussing and exploring philosophical ideas without endorsing or aligning with any specific political or religous ideologies. Our aim is to encourage open, unbiased dialogue centered on philosophical inquiry within a safe and respectful environment 🐥
