About us
đ If small talk drains you, deep conversations light you up, and youâre curious about many things - from science and philosophy to art and more - you'll feel at home here!
đĄ Groups are kept small to deepen conversations and give everyone a chance to speak. Each discussion is guided by currated theme-specific question cards and knowledge prepared in advance by the organizers - so we go beyond opinions and debate.
đ¤ Real connection and learning happen through the conversation by listening closely, being playful, curious and exploring ideas together.
đ§Š Before each event, we share interactive âfood for thoughtâ on Instagram to warm up the conversation.
⨠Follow us on Instagram @lifelong__curious for upcoming events, bite-sized knowledge, conversation prompts and takeaways, community moments, and all the good stuff!
----------------------------- đ Shared Community Contributions -----------------------------
This community exists because a significant amount of care and work goes into organizing each event. This includes:
⢠Finding and coordinating quiet venues
⢠Preparing and facilitating events
⢠Managing logistics and communication
⢠Maintaining social media and community outreach (which helps grow the group and secure venues)
⢠Covering the increasing Meetup platform fees and related expenses
To keep this sustainable, participants are invited to contribute in one of two ways:
⢠Volunteer your time or skills to help organize, host, or support events (such social media outreach)
⢠Pay the event contribution, which helps cover the costs above
Both forms of contribution are equally valued đ
-------------------------- đŤ Respect, Community Integrity & Safety --------------------------
This is not a commercial service, but a community we build together. Mutual respect and trust are foundational.
Harassment, discrimination, or insults - in person or online - will result in an immediate ban.
Similarly, committing to attend and contribute (financially or otherwise) and then not following through undermines the shared trust that keeps this space alive. This may result in exclusion from future events.

Book Club - "Decoding Reality" by Vlatko Vedral
Freiwilligenladen MĂźnchner Freiwillige â Wir helfen e.V., Tumblingerstrasse 50, MĂźnchen, DEWhat if space, time, matter, and even life itself are not built from solid objects, but from something far more abstract and fundamental: information? Why does nature obey mathematical laws with such eerie precision? How does complexity emerge from simplicity? And is information, rather than matter, the true currency of the universe?
From quantum physics to biology, from entropy to consciousness, this book weaves together science and big philosophical questions. It challenges our intuitions about what is ârealâ, revealing a cosmos that is less like a machine made of separate parts and more like a dynamic interplay of data, correlations, and possibilities.
Provocative yet accessible, this book is not just about understanding physics - itâs about rethinking reality itself.
Genres: Nonfiction, Science, Physics, Philosophy
Pages: ~336, paperbackđŤ Follow us on Instagram @lifelong__curious for events, curious insights, and community highlights.
Contribution: A âŹ5 fee is kindly requested to contribute to organisational and platform costs (PayPal or cash) 2 weeks before the book club. More about our organisation and other ways to support can be found in our group description đ¤

- Photos will be taken during the event to share highlights and help grow our community. If youâd rather not be in any photos, just let us know in writing before the event - weâll gladly respect that.
