📚 About our sessions
Please read the stories listed below before attending. For every story we will start with summarizing the story so that we have it fresh in our minds. We will share our opinions about the story, which parts we liked and which we didn't like, and we will discuss any and all aspects of the story and the writing.

📖 About this session
Summer is here and there is nothing more special during the long days that spending the time in the park... the children playing, the birds singing, the breeze caressing the grass, the ducks flying over the lake, a young couple having a picnic under the shade of a tree, two old man sitting on a bench and chatting... A portrait of a season of sun and joy.

Hence, this session will be dedicated to all the things you can find in a park and all those little things we can find there and connect with some of our memories.

So prepare and make yourself comfortable for a summer outdoors session (weather permitting!), but first, read the following stories that we will discuss during the session:

The event will take place in the initial location although there are slim chances of light rains. In any case, check during the morning for any updates related to the weather.

As it is expected around 30ºC, please bring enough water, sunscreen or some hat to have protection against the sun and the heat as it is not guaranteed there will be shade enough for everyone.
