Historic Architecture Walking Tours

**See Dublin through a new lens—and with new friends.** Welcome to **Quality Time**. We’re "breaking up" with the shallow events to give you something better: a creative afternoon stroll designed to capture the soul of the city. This isn't about "the 'gram" or content creation; it's about the art of looking and the joy of being present. We are so excited to co-host this walk with our wonderful community member, **Angie**. Angie has a passion for capturing the hidden details of Dublin, and she’ll be guiding us to help find those perfect angles and unique perspectives that we usually miss while looking at our screens. ### 🥾 The Journey: We’ll meet at the iconic Samuel Beckett Bridge and wind our way along the quays. Together, we’ll hunt for the beauty in Dublin’s architecture—from the grand Custom House to the historic Ha’penny Bridge. * Duration: Approximately 2 hours of movement and creativity. * The Finish Line: For those who fancy a treat, we’ll head to Cinnamood on O’Connell Street afterwards for coffee and their famous cinnamon rolls! ☕️🌀 *** ### ✨ The Quality Time Vibe: Before we set off, we’ll tuck our "connected" selves away (phones on aeroplane mode!) so we can truly engage with the city and each other. **Connection that lasts:** Quality Time doesn't end when the walk does! We encourage everyone to share their favourite "snaps" in our community WhatsApp group afterwards. It’s a lovely way to see how we all saw the same city through different eyes. 🖼️🤝 *** ### 🕰️ The Schedule: * **12:30 \|** Meet at the Samuel Beckett Bridge (Look for Maja & Lexie! 🦄🦆). * **12:45 \|** Creative walk begins. * **14:30 \|** Arrival at Ha'penny Bridge & optional coffee social. *** ### 🐥 What to bring: * **📷 Your Camera:** Professional DSLR, film camera, or your phone (strictly for photography—no scrolling!). * **👟 Comfortable Shoes:** We’ll be exploring for about 2 hours. * **🌦️ Rain Gear:** It’s Dublin! Let's be prepared for all four seasons. * **💛 Yourself:** Whether you’re a photographer or just want to socialise and enjoy the walk, you are so welcome! *** ### 🎟️ Tickets & Community Support: We believe everyone deserves access to Quality Time. If you’d like to support our mission to build a more connected Dublin, any contribution is warmly welcomed! 💛 **A Note on Attendees:** Please don’t worry if the numbers look low on Meetup—we manage most of our community through **[Lu.ma](https://luma.com/qualitytime_dublin)**, and our events are always full of life! **⚠️ Liability:** *Everyone is responsible for their own safety and possessions. Let’s look out for one another!* We can't wait to see the city through your eyes. **Hugs, Maja & Lexie** 🦄🦆 *(Quality Time Team)*

Join me for a small, mindful photography walk in nature. (**NOTE Time is 9:00 AM EST(Meetup is having technical Issue))** This is a slow, intentional gathering — not focused on fitness or perfect photography — but on simply pausing, observing, and being present. We’ll walk at a gentle pace, with moments of quiet, and a few light prompts to help you notice details you might normally miss. 📷 You don’t need any photography experience — a phone camera is enough. This is also not a business networking event. It’s a calm space to connect with nature and, if it feels natural, with like-minded people. 🌿 What to expect: • A slow-paced, relaxed walk • Moments of silence and observation • Simple reflection prompts 📍 Location: [ Red Trabue Nature Preserve] ⏱ Duration: \~60 minutes This is a small, initial gathering as I begin creating this space through WellGratiVibes — a blend of mindfulness, nature, and quiet connection. If this resonates with you, you’re welcome to join.

[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.
