Let’s meet on the last day of February for a gentle, warm, and slightly unpredictable afternoon together. This meetup is for people who enjoy meaningful conversations, emotional awareness, and authentic exchanges, the kind that leave you feeling both lighter and more alive. What to expect A small circle of open-minded humans, with tea, coffee, or food in hand, sharing self-reflection, philosophy, psychology or simply ideas and inspirations that arise naturally in the moment. There is no fixed topic. The conversation flows on its own. To give you a sense, here are some topics that emerged last time: - If you have lived in different places and cultures for many years, can you still define your origin as where you were born? - How to find peace and calm (inspired by Indian philosophy). - If someone behaves differently from most people in a system, are they wrong? (I’ve shared my perspective on this topic [[click here](https://www.instagram.com/p/DTqk5t6Avy_/?igsh=MXBhemd5ZTE1dnFzcQ==) ], feel free to add your own in comments . ) - Where would you like to spend your retirement, and why? - How to position yourself as an expat in a country like Luxembourg. - Cultural differences around complaining: in some cultures it’s negative, in others it’s seen as necessary for change. - Human energy, presence, and “frequency” — and how we influence it. - … and more. Practical details Venue: Bouneweger Stuff Date: Saturday, February 28, 2026 Time: 15:00 – 17:00 Group size: 12 people ☕ Food & drinks: Everyone orders and pays individually (If you can’t attend, please cancel so someone else can take the spot.) If you enjoy authentic connection, gentle humour, openness to different perspectives, and conversations that have a life of their own - you are very welcome to join. ✨
