About us
If you are tired of loud bars, rushed interactions, and conversations that never move beyond the surface, you are not alone. This is exactly why I started Walk and Talk. It offers a calm, genuine way to meet people through movement and conversation.
🌿 What you can expect
• A relaxed stroll with people who enjoy thoughtful discussion and light movement
• No agenda and no pressure
• Flat, comfortable routes so your attention stays on the conversation, not the terrain
• Space for any mood whether you wish to speak, listen, or simply be present
• An open, welcoming atmosphere for newcomers, introverts, extroverts, and anyone in between
☕ What you can bring
• Your coffee
• Your ideas
• Your curiosity
• Your awkwardness
• Yourself, exactly as you are
🧭 Why join
• You will meet people in a setting that feels natural rather than forced
• You will have conversations that feel sincere
• You will explore the city in good company
• You may find a community that becomes part of your weekly rhythm
If you are new to Auckland, seeking meaningful connection, or simply wanting a calmer social experience, we would be glad to see you on a walk. Many people arrive alone and quickly feel at ease.
If this sounds right for you, we hope you will join us soon.

Walk & Talk x Auckland Stoics: Conversations that Matter
Porch Bar & Eatery, 1 Saint Heliers Bay Road,, Auckland, NZWalk & Talk x Auckland Stoics: join us for a relaxed walking meetup and a genuinely thoughtful conversation.
If you are tired of loud bars, awkward small talk, and surface-level chats, you are not alone. Walk & Talk is a calm, open-invite stroll with people who enjoy movement, connection, and real conversation.
This time, we are doing a crossover with Auckland Stoics, a community focused on applying Stoic philosophy to modern difficulties. Stoicism is a practical philosophy that trains disciplined judgement and self-control so that one can live with reason, virtue, and steadiness amid uncertainty.
Theme for the walk: Stoicism in Everyday Life
We will keep it practical and grounded. Just walking. Talking. Sharing thoughts. Or simply listening. Flat surface - energy spent on the talk, not the terrain.
Bring your coffee, water bottle, and your thoughts.
