☕ Coffee after the run
Everyone is welcome.
Thirtysecond Zurich Coffee Talk Live!
A casual meet-up to get to know people from / around Zurich over a cup of coffee. Groups are typically 6-7 people small.
Main intention is to be less of a hello-goodbye event, but more to be able to "hang out" and get to know each other in some kind of a hide-out location where you can be sure of a seat: a third place besides home and work, where some distance can be taken from the daily hassles: an a\*\*-hole free zone.
Yes, there is a bit of a format that could be used (see below), although we're not going to "nanny" the whole event: just like in a Swiss association or "Verein": it's up to you to make it a success!
\- walk\-in/socialising
\- round of introduction
\- subject to talk about
\- hanging out
\- dinner \(if I make an exception of eating after 17:00\!\)
Location is always in Zurich's centre (NOT recommended by car!) and will be revealed in due time (please check your messages to confirm, etc.!). If that doesn't work, please write a message in this event, so I can see you're interested!
Hope to see you soon!

Rooftop Brunch & Beats (Tickets Required)
**Brunch • Beats • Rooftop Vibes**
Sundays in Zurich deserve a better soundtrack.
On **Sunday, May 31**, we’re heading up to the rooftop terrace of **Hiltl Dachterrasse** for a special **Rooftop Sunday Social** – where brunch culture meets house music and great company.
From **10:00 to 14:30**, the legendary rooftop of Hiltl turns into a daytime playground with brunch, drinks, sunshine, and electronic beats. Think of it as the Sunday version of the new **coffee rave trend** — relaxed, social, and full of energy, just earlier in the day and with amazing views over Zurich.
**Zurich Together will have its own table**, so our crowd can start the day together, grab brunch, and warm up with familiar faces. From there, you can stay with the group or mingle with the wider party crowd on the terrace and dancefloor.
Expect a fun mix of locals and internationals, open-minded people between **18 and 45**, and the kind of atmosphere where conversations start easily and Sundays suddenly become much more exciting.
Sunlight, good music, brunch plates, day drinks, and a rooftop dancefloor — not a bad way to start the day.
☀️ **What to expect**
• Rooftop brunch with beautiful city views
• House music & sunny daytime vibes
• Zurich Together table to meet our crowd
• Social atmosphere – easy to meet new people
• Dancing, drinks, and brunch on the terrace

Book summary:
On a hot day in Bethlehem, a twelve-year-old Palestinian-American girl is yelled at by a group of men outside the Church of the Nativity. She has exposed her legs in a biblical city, an act they deem forbidden, and their judgement will echo on through her adolescence. When our narrator finally admits to her mother that she is queer, her mother's response only intensifies a sense of shame: 'You exist too much,' she tells her daughter. Told in vignettes that flash between the U.S. and the Middle East--from New York to Jordan, Lebanon, and Palestine--Zaina Arafat's debut novel traces her protagonist's progress from blushing teen to sought-after DJ and aspiring writer.

Sharp Objects - Gillian Flynn
Join us for Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn!
Fresh from a brief stay at a psych hospital, reporter Camille Preaker faces a troubling assignment: she must return to her tiny hometown to cover the unsolved murder of a preteen girl and the disappearance of another. For years, Camille has hardly spoken to her neurotic, hypochondriac mother or to the half-sister she barely knows: a beautiful thirteen-year-old with an eerie grip on the town. Now, installed in her old bedroom in her family's Victorian mansion, Camille finds herself identifying with the young victims—a bit too strongly.
Dogged by her own demons, she must unravel the psychological puzzle of her own past if she wants to get the story-and survive this homecoming.
