Tokyo Non-Fiction Mornings–Theme-Free (Kichijoji)

Fuel your mind while you fuel up on coffee.

One weekend morning each month in Western Tokyo, we gather to share what we’ve been reading—no assigned titles, no pressure. Just real books, real ideas, and real caffeine (non-caffeinated drinks are totally fine, too).

Each person gets 10–15 minutes to talk about a non-fiction read, followed by a couple of quick questions before we move on to the next.

***

📅 When: 8:45–9:45 AM, Sunday, June 8
📍 Where: Sarutahiko Coffee, Kichijoji
🎙️ Format: Round-robin sharing—one person at a time
📚 Books: Any non-fiction topic. June has no set theme.
🗣️ Language: English (everyone’s welcome, including non-native speakers)

***

Rough Plan
8:45–8:50 – Grab a table and coffee. If Sarutahiko is packed, we’ll head to Doutor or another nearby café.
8:50–8:55 – Quick introductions
8:55–9:45 – Book sharing

Just so you know:
☕ Coffee’s on you.
💬 Conversation’s on us.
