Finding Your Voice: The Art of Honest Connection
Do you ever find yourself caught between the "polite" answer and your honest truth? Many of us silence our real thoughts out of a fear of rejection, but hiding our boundaries often costs us our confidence.
We invite you to join us for an intimate introduction to **Conflict Resolution and Management**. This isn't just a seminar; it is a safe space to explore how we can stop fearing friction and start navigating it with grace.
**The Journey:** Together, we will look beyond the surface of arguments. We will explore the psychology behind why we hesitate, identify the different shapes conflict takes, and learn strategic yet empathetic ways to tackle them.
Whether you are navigating dynamics with a boss, a neighbor, or a life partner, you will learn that conflict doesn't have to be a battle. When approached correctly, it is an integral part of your success and a pathway to deeper connection.
**Your Comfort Matters:** We believe true learning happens when you feel safe. During the session, you will be invited to explore these concepts in the way that feels most natural to you—whether through the quiet reflection of **writing** or the active engagement of **speaking**.
Come as you are, and leave with the tools to set boundaries, voice your authentic opinion, and stand in your confidence.

New Year's walk&coffee Bois d/l Cambre
Please note later start time of 13:00 :)
Easy walk & talk of approx. 2 hours starting at the music pavilion of Bois de la Cambre (see Google maps & photo in event info), thru' the park and thru' the Forêt de Soignes, and back. Coffee or snack at the buvette (also called "le kiosque"). https://maps.app.goo.gl/n251GsZhoY8aC3mv6
If you're more than 10 min. late, go to the following next point en route https://goo.gl/maps/ak8wL3ZLqgtvu8ER9
The parc has easy access by public transport, e.g. trams 8, 25 Solbosch stop, or by bicycle, car ...
🌙 Twilight Walk in Parc de Woluwe (🏮Red Torch/Headlamp Required🏮)
_IMPORTANT: To RSVP you will also need to register as a member [here.](https://forms.gle/PsmYJ3vQKocXQCAY6)_
**🏮 Please bring a red-light headlamp or torch (Decathlon has them).**
Red mode is required to minimize light pollution, respect wildlife, and keep the peaceful night-walk atmosphere.
As winter approaches and daylight fades earlier, we’ll take advantage of the calm, blue-hour mood for a gentle **late-afternoon walk through Parc de Woluwe** - one of Brussels’ most elegant urban parks.
We’ll follow an easy loop along the lakes and the Woluwe River, enjoying that unique winter serenity: silhouettes of trees against the sky, reflections on the water, and the quiet shift from day to night.
After the walk, we’ll warm up together with a drink at **Brasserie des Étangs Mellaerts**, our meeting and parking point.
### **🕯️ A bit of history, softly told at dusk**
Created during the **Belle Époque** (1896–1898) as part of King Leopold II’s urban vision, the park was designed as a landscaped corridor linking Brussels to Tervuren. The gentle river, the chain of lakes, and the elegant avenues still echo that era’s idea of blending beauty, nature, and modern city life.
### **🕓 Plan**
* Meet at **Brasserie des Étangs Mellaerts**, Bd du Souverain 275, 1150 Woluwe-Saint-Pierre
* **Parking** available on site
* Easy access via **Tram 39/44** from Montgomery or **Tram 8** from Roodebeek - get off at *Musée du Tram*
* We start and end the walk at the ClubHouse, followed by warm drinks together ☕
### **🌿 Expect**
🍁 Winter foliage, calm lakes, and soft evening light
🦆 Ducks, herons, maybe even a fox if we’re lucky
✨ A cozy, slightly scout-like night walk with red headlamps
🐕 Gentle pace - dogs welcome
### **💶 Symbolic Contribution**
This recurring walk is **free**.
If you’d like to support the Sunday Vacations community, you may make an optional **€5 symbolic contribution** to our non-profit ASBL.

[LOCATION: THE SISTER CAFE] Philosophy Meetup: 17:00-18:30
Welcome to our weekly event in the upstairs room of The Sister Café, rue Chair et Pain 3, one block from the Grand Place. Please get there early enough to order your drink at the bar first. Thank you!
After introductions we will collect questions from the group participants, choose one by voting then discuss it for an hour. Then most of us stay for drinks and bizarre conversations.
Past questions have been wide and not confined to academic philosophy:
What is a genuine friend?
Is social media turning us into emotional zombies?
Do we lose some of the experience of things by defining them?
Are we driven by sex?
Is loneliness a personal failure?
Is morality relative?
**Crucially, be kind and respectful and generous** in your disagreements; remember how much you personally enjoy someone else proving you wrong before celebrating your cutting counterexamples.
Cinema Flagey : The Girl in the Snow
**Cinema Flagey : The Girl in the Snow**
03/01 @ 18h50
One stormy night, Aimée, a young secular republican, arrives in a remote hamlet in the Alps to spend the winter teaching a handful of children. The villagers meet her with cold mistrust, yet she slowly becomes part of the community and remains determined to challenge their obscure beliefs. But as the snow deepens and the mountain grows more isolated, the hamlet’s rituals and legends begin to invade her nights.
Louise Hémon’s magnificent debut feature, inspired by her own family stories, premiered at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.
