Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at our Copenhagen Shut Up & Write! sessions. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, résumé, melody, poem, or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: - 15 minutes of hellos and getting settled; maybe some quick intros. - Then, the timer starts! : writing for 1 hour. - After the hour is up... chat / take off / keep writing, if you're on a roll. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens once the hour of writing is complete. Writing can be very solitary... connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. It's best to be on time, but BEING LATE IS ALSO OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check in with us after the session. (We’ll be the ones with the small Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. What Should I Bring? Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons.

Hej! Copenhagen’s not just cozy — it’s cosmopolitan too.

Expect warm vibes, open minds, and a seat at the table for everyone. Come join the city’s most hyggeligt hangout. join us!!

Escape the winter chill and immerse yourself in an evening of creativity, conversation, and coziness. Join us for a **Mulled Wine & Collage Workshop**—a seasonal gathering that celebrates Danish *hygge* through warm drinks and imaginative art-making. Set in a charming Copenhagen café turned creative studio for the night, you’ll begin with a tasting of traditional Danish **gløgg** (mulled wine) in all its variations—red, white, spiced, and even alcohol-free. With guidance from a local flavor-maker, you’ll get the chance to create your own personalized blend using classic Scandinavian spices and garnishes. Once your mug is filled with your perfect concoction, settle into a candlelit workspace stocked with vintage magazines, colorful papers, fabrics, and other tactile treasures. A collage artist will guide the group through a meditative cut-and-paste flow where you’ll create a visual piece rooted in seasonal themes like winter coziness, Copenhagen memories, or dream landscapes. Whether you come with friends or on your own, this cozy and creative evening will leave you inspired, relaxed, and ready for winter.

Come join us for an afternoon run/jog/walk We are not a typical running club, so please read about the concept in “about us”. How it works: we don’t know in advance where the trail will go, but we know it will be fun! A member of the club, the 'hare', sets a trail, usually marked with flour. The rest of us, the 'pack', follows the hare's 'scent', i.e., the marks. There will be a 8-10 km trail for runners with shortcuts down to 5-6 km for walkers and those who need a slower pace. We have no set pace - run/walk as slow or as fast as you'd like. After the run we enjoy some refreshments and socialize. Come a few minutes before the start so that you can say hi and leave your bag in a designated bag car before we set off at 14:30. Don’t worry if there are few registrations on Meetup. We have existed for 44 years, and a lot of our members (anywhere from 20 to 50 people) just show up. Four-legged friends are welcome! We never cancel. See you there!

**WOMEN’S CIRCLE · Voice of Sophia** **The Wise Woman: Falling Upward into Meaning** The beginning of the year is a time of reflection, inner transition and gentle re-orientation. In this circle, we meet the archetype of the Wise Woman as an inner capacity to hold perspective, meaning, and inner support during times of change, loss, and uncertainty. Together, we explore maturity as integration — a life phase in which what seems to fall apart can become a doorway into depth, wisdom, and a more honest way of living. The circle is inspired by the work of Richard Rohr, Pema Chödrön, and Thomas Moore, and draws on embodied practices, reflection, and symbolic language to support feeling of wholness and inner grounding. **What this circle is about:** • moving from external achievement toward inner meaning • meeting crisis and uncertainty without fixing or bypassing • integrating both light and shadow aspects of lived experience • cultivating care for the soul in everyday life • allowing wisdom to emerge through what has been lived We reflect on personal experience through myths and folk stories — such as Vasilisa the Wise and Hecate — using them as symbolic maps for transition, maturity, and deep feminine knowing. **Circle program (4 hours)** 14:00–14:20 — Arrival & Opening Warm arrival, grounding, and brief introductions. We open with a reflection on maturity as an unfolding process of wisdom and inner support. 14:20–14:35 — Grounding Meditation A guided meditation: meeting uncertainty and inner disorientation while sensing a deeper inner ground beneath it. 14:35–14:55 — Intention Sharing An gentle inquiry into the question: “What am I ready to integrate in my life right now?” 14:55–15:35 — Guided Reflection & Holding Context A guided exploration of themes that support the process: • the Wise Woman as a companion through life transitions • the concept of the two halves of life • staying present when things fall apart • caring for the soul through meaning and depth 15:35–17:35 — Practice Session (with breaks) A sequence of embodied and reflective practices, including: • gentle movement — from instability toward feeling more grounded • journaling practice: “What in my life is asking for care and attention right now?” • small-group reflection on lived experiences of crisis and change • an EFT-based practice focused on acceptance, integration, and feeling more grounded Tea breaks and quiet pauses are woven into the flow. 17:35–18:00 — Closing & Integration A closing round to name one insight or piece of wisdom to carry forward. A short integration meditation and a gentle closing of the circle. Practical details Date: 1 February Time: 14:00–18:00 Location: Strandvejen 685c, 2930 Klampenborg Registration / payment: • 450 DKK — for returning participants (the more circles you attend during the year, the lower the price): [https://betal.mobilepay.dk/d68p](https://betal.mobilepay.dk/d68p?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwYnlhTmk0Vjc2WGt3OTg0VXNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR5MqduNLgJy_DqQ0At4TeDfc1o-sy3WKEaQ8W4SSWyu8jey3W9mTWbBU_NkYw_aem_71YLT2UGXbvePwWIbgQstA) • 500 DKK — for first-time participants [https://betal.mobilepay.dk/53fw](https://betal.mobilepay.dk/53fw?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwYnlhTmk0Vjc2WGt3OTg0VXNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR5Qp2VPMMF9DADhqsx6B17XsUPp93zjb7Gkw-o9XZtTgPjRa0bmtGJlG6OWJQ_aem_bBlyHgynJbN3fphHqJmirg) To ensure depth and presence, we work in a small group of up to 10 participants.

### Tools in your AI's Toolbox : An introduction to MCP Servers The generative AI revolution has unlocked unprecedented capabilities, but the next frontier is agency: empowering models to interact with, query, and act upon the world. The current challenge is the “N x M integration problem,” where every AI model requires a custom, brittle integration for each external tool or data source. This approach simply doesn’t scale. How can we give an AI access to our sales leads, code repositories, or IoT devices in a standardized, secure, and reusable way? This session introduces Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open-source framework designed to solve this challenge and become the universal connector—the USB-C port—for AI. MCP standardizes how AI models discover and use external tools, moving beyond simple function-calling to a robust, client-server architecture. We will dive into how this open protocol is creating a new ecosystem for building powerful, context-aware AI agents. Join this session for a developer-focused introduction where you will learn how to: Understand the core concepts of the open-source Model Context Protocol and its architecture. Utilize pre-built, open-source MCP servers to instantly connect AI to tools like Git, Slack, and databases. Build a custom MCP server to securely expose your own proprietary data and APIs as tools for any compliant AI. Move beyond bespoke integrations and contribute to a standardized, collaborative, and open ecosystem. Stop building one-off connectors and start building intelligent agents. This session will give you the practical knowledge to leverage MCP and create the next generation of AI that doesn’t just talk, but does.
