Español abajo 👇 ## ENGLISH VERSION Ever walked into a room full of strangers and thought *"d#\*n, where do I even start"*? 🤔 Yeah. Us too. That's exactly why this exists. 💡 **What's happening:** We get a group of locals, foreigners, travelers, and random interesting humans in one room. Then we play some conversation games. Simple stuff. Cards with questions. Getting people to actually talk to each other instead of standing around pretending to read the bar menu. 🍸 **But here's the thing:** You don't have to be fluent. You don't need to be outgoing. You can literally show up alone, stand in a corner, and still leave with a new contact in your phone. 📱 No forced networking. No "let me tell you about my startup" Just conversations. Real ones. ✨ **Who comes:** People who moved here and don't know anyone. People who speak three languages and want to practice a fourth. Travelers killing time before their next flight. Locals curious about what's happening in their city. 🌍 Basically: everyone who's tired of the same old bar scene. **The details:** 📍 Sabores Puros — inside Sileo Hotel Azcuénaga 1968, Recoleta 🕕 Saturday \| 18:00 – 20:00 🎟 **Entry:** $5.000 Come solo. Leave with stories. *Or don't. No one will notice.* 🤷 Follow us on Instagram: [https://instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy](https://instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy) *** ## VERSIÓN EN ESPAÑOL ¿Alguna vez entraste a un cuarto lleno de estranjeros y pensaste *"m·#\*da, por dónde empiezo"*? 🤔 Sí. Nosotros también. Por eso existe esto. 💡 **Qué pasa:** Juntamos un grupo de locales, extranjeros, viajeros y humanos interesantes random en un cuarto. Después jugamos algunos juegos de conversación. Cosas simples. Cartas con preguntas. Haciendo que la gente realmente hable entre sí en lugar de pararse alrededor fingiendo leer el menú del bar. 🍸 **Pero aquí está lo bueno:** No tienes que ser fluido. No necesitas ser extrovertido. Literalmente puedes llegar solo, pararte en una esquina, y aún así irte con un nuevo contacto en tu teléfono. 📱 Sin networking forzado. Sin "déjame contarte sobre mi startup" Solo conversaciones. Reales. ✨ **Quién viene:** Gente que se mudó aquí y no conoce a nadie. Gente que habla tres idiomas y quiere practicar un cuarto. Viajeros matando tiempo antes de su siguiente vuelo. Locales curiosos sobre qué está pasando en su ciudad. 🌍 Básicamente: todos los que están hartos de la misma escena de siempre. **Los detalles:** 📍 Sabores Puros — Sileo Hotel Azcuénaga 1968, Recoleta 🕕 Sábado \| 18:00 – 20:00 🎟 **Entrada:** $5.000 Ven solo. Vete con historias. *O no. Nadie se va a dar cuenta.* 🤷 Seguinos en Instagram: [https://instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy](https://instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy)
