Hi everyone! 🌲 Pack your bags, Master Baggins! We’re heading on an expedition to the bottom of an ancient, prehistoric sea. 🌊 Our quest will take us through the wild Prokopské Valley, full of stunning viewpoints and peaceful trails that feel like hidden paths in Middle-earth. 📸 Fun fact: did you know this valley used to be the bottom of a tropical sea millions of years ago? 🐚 Along our journey, we shall seek out the majestic Przewalski's horses 🐎 and the ancient half-timbered bell tower of Butovice 🔔. So, grab your hiking boots, leave the Shire behind, and let’s go! **📏 Trip Details:** * Distance: Approx. 10 km * Incline: 200m (total) 📈 * Terrain: Forest and field trails (partially unpaved) 🪵 * Difficulty: Easy/Moderate. Even for a Hobbit, the climbs are very gentle. ✅ 👟 What to bring: Comfortable walking shoes, tick repellent 🛡️, water 💧, a snack 🍎 (and maybe a second breakfast?), and a good mood! Once we reach the distant lands of Řeporyje, we can grab a well-deserved drink together. 🍻 💰 Contribution: There is a 50 CZK fee to cover the Meetup subscription (payable on-site via QR code or cash). Let me know if you’re joining this fellowship! Looking forward to seeing you all. 🌲☀️

Filozofování o životě a o všem ostatním pro všechny, bez vstupného a bez přihlášky: Co si přejete, s čím si lámete hlavu, co Vás nenechá spát, o čem dumáte, o čem sníte, co Vám vrtá hlavou, čeho se bojíte, na co vzpomínáte, o čem přemýšlíte? Nenechte tyto věci jen pro sebe, zkuste rozhovor s jinými lidmi. U nás nejde jen o to, si popovídat, o to taky, ale to máte i jinde. U našeho stolu se pokusíme, spolu *filozofovat*. Nejdříve se dohodneme, jaké téma budeme diskutovat, a pak se do toho pustíme, budeme přemýšlet, rozmýšlet, promýšlet a zamýšlet se, až se nám z toho bude točit hlava, přitom nám budou podporou filozofové všech věků, abychom jí neztratili, tu hlavu. Ani byste nevěřili, jak filozofie může být osvěžující…

Let's hike! 🥾 To a peak frequently referred to as the "Olympus of Brdy". Highlights of the hike: \- a lookout tower and view points \- the Olympus of the Brdy mountains called Plešivec \- some rocks \- a lovely day in nature Here is the approximate trail https://mapy.com/s/pojupaduco I reserve the right to adjust the trail depending on the group :-) Wear shoes good for hiking. TAKE FOOD FOR MOST OF DAY, there won't be much to get in the forest. We will buy the tickets on the spot, no need to get anything in advance, just show up. We will go by bus there, and by train back to Prague. I expect to be back at around 7pm, it all depends on our speed (no rush) The hike is not super hard, but it does involve some ascending and is over 20km, so a decent condition is required. COST: Approximately 200 Kč for tickets. As always, if you know about someone interested, feel free to take them with you. This event is free of charge, but any **contribution for organizing and to cover the subscription fees is more than welcome** (100+ CZK is recommended, but it's totally up to you how much you think the trip was worth, your financial possibilities etc.). You pay at the end of the trip. It's okay if your plans change, but please also change your status accordingly. We will meet at the Smíchov train station, OUTSIDE, IN FRONT OF THE MAIN ENTRANCE AT 9.55. I'm looking forward to seeing you all again! Jirka 🙏🤗

This group is for anyone who writes - for any reason. Have a thesis or article you need to write? Trying to finish a novel or an academic paper? This group is for you. We are currently meeting in-person at Locus Workspace. If you have any questions, contact Sonya Lano here or on Facebook or Messenger (https://www.facebook.com/sonya.lano). We start at 9:00, introduce ourselves, and share a few words about what we're working on and what we hope to accomplish during the session. At the end of the session, you can give us a brief recap of how it went. We'll break at noon. The afternoon session starts at 2:00 pm. You're welcome to join both sessions or just one. Please come as close to 9:00 as you can if you come for the morning session. If you come to the afternoon session, we are usually back by about a quarter to 2:00.

**Hey art lovers,** It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a person in possession of a free Sunday morning must be in want of some fine art. I’m playing this one a bit "last minute," but honestly, some things are too good to miss. So I’ve decided to treat myself (and you!) to something truly special this Sunday. We are heading to the **Kodl Gallery** for their spectacular **pre-auction exhibition**. This is a rare chance to see world-class masterpieces from private collections before they go under the hammer and disappear into private homes again. It’s high-end art, but without the museum queues. The exhibition is free of charge. 📍 **The Plan:** * **The Gallery:** We’ll spend around 90mins soaking up the beauty of 19th and 20th-century art. * **The Secret Walk:** If we’re in the mood, we’ll take a leisurely stroll through the hidden, quiet backstreets of the Old Town—away from the tourist crowds. * **The Coffee Finale:** We’ll finish at a charming hidden coffee bar to chat about our favorite pieces over a caffeine fix and maybe something sweet. 💰 **Contribution:** **50 CZK** (A small contribution to help cover the Meetup platform fees). No pressure, just good vibes, great art, and even better company. It’s the perfect way to recharge before the new week kicks in. Can’t wait to see you there! 🖼️☕️✨ ***

This open seminar by Albert Hoffmann explores how different people and traditions have approached the question, “How should we live?” We will look at ideas from philosophers, thinkers, and religious traditions and explore different answers from various cultures and time periods. The seminar is intended as an invitation to reflection rather than a definitive answer. About Albert Hoffmann: https://sophonautik.ch/english/ It will take place in the “17. listopadu” dormitory next to the Faculty of Humanities. The dormitory has two buildings, and the seminar will take place in the northern one. Let me know when you are next to it, and I’ll pick you up. If you’re anywhere else and have trouble finding it, just let me know.

The topic for May is "Ink" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
