Hello ! This event's goal is to gather digital nomads with a coffee to socialize and to work together. :) The concept is simply to come and switch between your work (if you have some to do tho) and the chitchat to get to know each other !

Let's dive into the literature of Eastern Europe! One that carries some of the most powerful, witty, melancholic, and resilient stories ever written. This theme encompasses many of the works of Eastern European authors, some known and most unknown, from post-communist memoirs and political satire to novels, family histories, and modern fiction. The theme is to invite us to explore the voices, histories, and cultures of Eastern Europe through recommendation of the others and to talk about our most loved books within the theme. Bring along a favorite read, a recent discovery, or a longtime classic you’d love to share and discuss with the group. (Physical copies are always welcome for our little group photo tradition! 📚✨) (This is a themed book club, so there’s no required reading. Just come ready to talk, recommend, reflect, and discover new perspectives together. Discussions are in English.) P.S. I’ll reach out before the event to confirm attendance. Please cancel in advance if plans change so I can adjust the reservation accordingly. Merci\~ 🌹

Let's get together with a drink and discuss this book. Location to be confirmed soon :) Exploring the psychological dynamics of the relationship between a precocious yet naïve teenage girl and her magnetic and manipulative teacher, a brilliant, all-consuming read that marks the explosive debut of an extraordinary new writer. 2000\. Bright\, ambitious\, and yearning for adulthood\, fifteen\-year\-old Vanessa Wye becomes entangled in an affair with Jacob Strane\, her magnetic and guileful forty\-two\-year\-old English teacher\. 2017\. Amid the rising wave of allegations against powerful men\, a reckoning is coming due\. Strane has been accused of sexual abuse by a former student\, who reaches out to Vanessa\, and now Vanessa suddenly finds herself facing an impossible choice: remain silent\, firm in the belief that her teenage self willingly engaged in this relationship\, or redefine herself and the events of her past\. But how can Vanessa reject her first love\, the man who fundamentally transformed her and has been a persistent presence in her life? Is it possible that the man she loved as a teenager—and who professed to worship only her—may be far different from what she has always believed? Alternating between Vanessa’s present and her past, *My Dark Vanessa* juxtaposes memory and trauma with the breathless excitement of a teenage girl discovering the power her own body can wield. Thought-provoking and impossible to put down, this is a masterful portrayal of troubled adolescence and its repercussions that raises vital questions about agency, consent, complicity, and victimhood. Written with the haunting intimacy of *The Girls* and the creeping intensity of *Room*, *My Dark Vanessa* is an era-defining novel that brilliantly captures and reflects the shifting cultural mores transforming our relationships and society itself.

Pas de cours magistral : on apprend en faisant, en échangeant, en se photographiant mutuellement. Chacun passe devant et derrière l'objectif. **Au programme :** On explorera plusieurs approches du portrait en situation réelle — lumière naturelle et gestion des ombres en forêt, portraits en pleine lumière vs. contre-jour, utilisation du flou d'arrière-plan (bokeh), mise en scène et direction du modèle, portraits documentaires / candides, et selon les envies du groupe : poses, expressions, storytelling visuel. Chacun repart avec des images, des retours constructifs, et de nouvelles techniques en poche. **📸 Matériel :** Apportez votre appareil photo (reflex, hybride, compact ou même smartphone). L'important, c'est votre regard. Apportez vos accessoires si vous en avez (réflecteurs, difuseurs etc.) **⚠️ Note importante – utilisation des photos :** Les photos prises lors de l'atelier sont susceptibles d'être utilisées pour la promotion du groupe sur les réseaux sociaux.

No formal lecture: we learn by doing, by exchanging ideas, and by photographing each other. Everyone gets a chance to be both behind and in front of the camera. Program: We’ll explore several approaches to portrait photography in real-life conditions — natural light and shadow management in the forest, portraits in direct light vs. backlighting, use of background blur (bokeh), staging and model direction, documentary / candid portraits, and depending on the group’s interests: poses, expressions, visual storytelling. Everyone leaves with images, constructive feedback, and new techniques to use. 📸 Equipment: Bring your camera (DSLR, mirrorless, compact camera, or even a smartphone). What matters most is your eye.

She learns her survival is tied to a white slaveholder’s son. Forced to move between centuries, she must endure the brutal realities of slavery while fighting to hold on to her identity.
