Balade des jardins secrets du Marais
(Event in French and English)
Des plantes ? Dans le Marais ? Oui ! Et pas qu'un peu !
Et je vous invite à venir participer à une balade qui nous emmènera dans des jardins peu connus du Marais. Comme ça, vous saurez où aller chercher le calme après une séance de shopping dans le quartier cet été.
Peu connus ? Le plus connu de tous, c'est celui de la rue des Rosiers et, à côté des autres, il est très célèbre. Pourtant, j'ai rencontré plein de personnes qui ne connaissaient même pas celui-là. Alors les autres...
Quelques images de certains de ces jardins ; https://youtu.be/9b0U24k1fIk
Rendez-vous devant le Leica Store du boulevard Beaumarchais. À côté de la sortie 2 du métro Chemin Vert.
Prévoir 2h et on finira près du Centre Pompidou.
Prix libre. Suggéré : 10€.
Free Walking Tour (in English): The Birth of Paris ✨
We’ll explore the very place where Paris was born.
We’ll talk about two key chapters of the city’s history — Roman Lutetia and medieval Paris.
We’ll walk through the Île de la Cité, see Notre-Dame, the former royal palace, cross historic bridges and continue toward the Left Bank.
The tour is free, with a few simple conditions:
📸 A photographer will be present. By joining, you agree that photos may be used on my website or social media, and you may appear in them.
✍️ If you enjoyed the tour, I’d really appreciate a good review afterwards.
🍷 Tips are very welcome as a thank-you for the work behind this tour.
Come if you want to understand Paris, not just see it 😉
If you’re planning to join the tour, please join our WhatsApp group. I’ll share all updates there (meeting point, last-minute changes).

Rando #44 : 18 km à travers les marais de l'Essonne (91)

**C'est le printemps ! Direction les marais de l'Essonne, espace naturel et site historique exceptionnels, traversés par un sentier qui serpente entre lacs et rivières.**
Le nom du département de l’Essonne découle d’une petite rivière dont le patronyme est un hommage à *Acionna*, déesse gauloise de l’eau. Un peu avant de se jeter dans la Seine, et comme pour retarder sa disparition, l’Essonne se transforme en un entrelacs de marais et d’étangs, d’îles et de tourbières sur plusieurs kilomètres. C’est dans ce paysage unique, labellisé [Natura 2000](https://www.natura2000.fr/) en raison de la beauté et de la richesse de sa flore et de sa faune, que notre randonnée nous emmène.
Une surprise nous attend dans le parc de Villeroy…

Deep Talk / In English
Let's have a weekly deep talk in an intimate Parisian café, share a drink and have a good time with like-minded, lovely and chill people. ☕
We're here to sip life in a childish, simple and non-serious way.
When was the last time you had a meaningful conversation? Or deepened your relationship with someone in your life? It's not easy to have a deep conversation.
While small talk, which is typically casual and light-hearted, can help break the ice, it may not necessarily help you form a deep, emotional connection with someone. Whether it's with your friends, family, colleagues or romantic partners, having meaningful conversations is important for creating strong bonds.
"Meaningful conversations help us understand ourselves and those around us better. They involve sharing important aspects of ourselves and actively listening, validating and connecting with others."
We believe that a happy and healthy life is built on beautiful relationships and that loneliness kills us. That's it. It's not the number of friends that counts, it's the quality of the relationship.
✅ This group is adressed to :
● People who want to build deep, genuine and caring relationships in a small group that looks the same, where they feel comfortable and emotionally safe to talk emotionally and get intimate about anything in their lives.
● Simple, loving, kind, hyper/sensitive and lovely people who spend a lot of time in their bubble thinking about the meaning of life, passionate about personal development, philosophy, meaningful conversations, debates ....
⛔ Please don't subscribe if :
● You don't see yourself in the group's aims and beliefs.
● You're travelling for a short period of time and don't live or intend to live in Paris.
● You are not sure if you will be able to come, please update your status to allow others on the waiting list to join. An absence without notice will result in an irrevocable ban.
Progress :
● ❗ For reservations, I'll send you a private Meetup message at least 5 hours before the meeting to confirm your reservation. If I don't receive a reply 2 hours before the meeting, I will send you a second message to let you know that you will be replaced by someone on the waitlist.
● We keep the session small, cosy and relaxed in a quiet place, prioritising regularity to encourage intimacy, connection, listening and speaking. (\~ 5/6 people)
● On arrival, if you feel comfortable, you will be suggested to choose and associate several drawn Feelings and Needs cards to express how you really feel at the moment, to talk about ourselves and communicate effectively.
● The best way to make progress is to make the conversation easy and natural, with everyone making an effort to suggest and write down what you want to talk about. You can write down your favourite topics/questions before the meeting. The meeting is participative and invite everyone if you feel comfortable being a leader and a power of suggestion.
Anyway, to keep the meeting running smoothly, I'll animate the meeting to make sure the conversation doesn't get wild or boring and I wouldn't hesitate to reframe people. In case of lack of inspiration we have a lot of deep conversation question card game which can help to find interesting questions.
● (Not compulsory) After the meeting we can finish in a nearby restaurant for those who wish to relax or continue our conversation.
Advice for a good moment :
● Leave your ego and mask at home, we are not here to impress anyone but to be ourselves with our strength, weakness, pride and shame.
Come with an open/deep/emotional/complex thought and vulnerability.
● Ask open-ended questions and invite the other person to describe what a situation was like for them or how they felt.
● Don't hesitate to be vulnerable and share information about yourself if needed.
Consider sharing personal information first to gain the other person's trust.
● Adopt an attitude of curiosity and genuine interest in what the other person is saying. Be thoughtful and try to put yourself in the other person's shoes so that you can see things from their perspective. Be truthful, caring and honest.
● Listen actively and ask follow-up questions.
● Be empathetic and offer emotional validation so that they feel seen and heard.
It is forbidden to judge, but try to understand.
● ⏱ Be aware of your speaking time for Equally Speak.
● Be aware never to provoke political or religious ideologies, but to accept differences of belief. Advice on non-violent communication can be given in the meeting to learn not to unintentionally hurt anyone when requested or needed.
● Remember to maintain a safe, and benevolent environment. People who are considered to be disruptive, problematic or simply not in tune with the energy of the group will not be allowed to return.
Finally, we're hug-friendly !!!

Sunday western loop at gruppetto pace (56+ km at 20 kph)
**Details**
* When -- 9h Sunday, March 29
* Where -- Bois de Boulogne, parking lot Grande Cascade
* Length -- 56+ km
* Average speed -- 20 km/h
* Strava route -- **[Slackers ride 56km from Bois de Boulogne](https://www.strava.com/routes/3467811674789849126)**
This ride is with the "gruppetto," which is the Italian term for the group of cyclists that often forms on mountain stages of the professional grand tours behind the main peloton. It is typically populated with sprinters and domestiques who may lack the climbing skills of the contenders or are saving themselves for another day.
We will head west toward Noisy-le-Roi before turning left at Villepreux (potential coffee stop) and coming back through Versailles on the return to Paris. By the end we will have averaged about 20 kph, with higher speeds on flat stretches of the route and slower on the climbs, of course.
As always, please check the following before you arrive Sunday:
* do you have the cycling fitness and experience for this ride? no half-wheeling, try to stay around 30cm away from the wheel in front of you.
* safety comes first: no helmet, no PCB ride.
* this ride is for road bikes/velos de route, not for mountain or city bikes etc.
* bring spare tube, bidons, energy bars, gels, etc.
* bring money/card in case you need it.
***REMINDER***\*: PCB rides are **no-drop** with a focus on staying together. Our rides fill a niche and are designed for people who want to ride in a group, together, at a medium pace with others who are more interested in the experience than in riding as fast as possible. We regroup at the tops of significant climbs and key turns, so no one gets left behind.
*If you are looking for something different, perhaps a weekend training ride with a faster group of cyclists who compete in races and triathlons, **then this is not the group for you**. I recommend checking out [Paris Cycling Group](https://www.meetup.com/Paris-Cycling-Group/), which typically feature rides at an average speed of 25-30 kph. There are other groups, as well, which are organized by several bike shops in Paris.*

Walk & Talk About Life's Big Questions
[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations.
If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!).
**HOW IT WORKS**
**Step 1: Bring a topic**
Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event.
**Step 2: Circle up & share**
We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds.
**Step 3: Walk, talk & float**
We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!"
**Step 4: Feel more alive**
Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times.
*For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)*
**HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC**
A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about.
Recent topics include:
* "What are you passionate about right now?"
* "What makes a good friend?"
* "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?"
* "How do you want to be remembered?"
* "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?"
Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter.
**WHAT TO EXPECT**
This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.*
But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here.
**FAQ**
* Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk!
* We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space.
* We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space.
* Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know.
* Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic!
**LOGISTICS**
* If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event.
* This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs.
* Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details.
* If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋
**IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...**
[The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up.
* This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).
