🌍 JUST GUTSY — Solo Travelers Meetup (Paris 4PM local time)
**No pressure. No plans. Just new friends ✨**
Whether you’re visiting Paris for the first time, just arrived, or simply love meeting curious, open-minded people, this bi-weekly **Just Gutsy** meetup is an easy way to share stories, make friends, and explore the city together.
**Who it’s for?**
• Solo travelers
• Expats & digital nomads
• Locals who love meeting travelers
**What to expect?**
✨ Relaxed, **self-led** gathering
🤝 Small group energy
🌍 Travel stories, tips & shared adventures
🍹 Grab a drink or snack if you like
**How it works?**
This is a self-led meetup, meaning I set it up for you but the magic happens between you.
To make sure everyone finds each other smoothly, please follow these simple coordination steps:
1️⃣ **RSVP** Thoughtfully
If you’re planning to come, tap “Going.”
It helps others feel confident joining and builds momentum before the meetup.
Even if you’re 80% sure, RSVP.
If your plans change, please update your RSVP so others aren’t expecting your attendance.
2️⃣ **Confirm 2 Hours Before** (Essential)
To ensure the meetup runs, please comment on this event page at least 2 hours before the start time:
“Confirmed for today 😊”
This allows everyone to see, ahead of time, who is actually coming.
The meetup moves forward when at least 2 people confirm 2 hours before the event.
If fewer than 2 confirmations are posted by then, attendance may be low that day.
This avoids anyone showing up uncertain.
3️⃣ **Signal Your Arrival**
When you arrive, comment on this event page:
“Arrived” + where you’re sitting + what you’re wearing
Example:
“Arrived. Sitting outside near the entrance. Wearing a black t-shirt.”
This ensures everyone can easily find each other.
Recognition Tip
Having a clear profile photo on Meetup is highly encouraged — it makes recognition effortless and helps the group form faster.
**When & Where?**
📅 Day: Every Tuesday & Saturday
🕓 Time: 4:00 PM local time
📍 Meeting point: In front of **Costadoro Social Coffee.**
**Arrive on time,** smaller groups make it easier to connect.
**Why join Just Gutsy?**

• Feel at home anywhere in the world
• Be part of a growing global solo travel community
• Early members get lifetime premium access to the future Just Gutsy app 🚀 Join here 👉 https://justgutsy.com/

**About Just Gutsy**
**Just Gutsy** is a global community for solo travelers who are free spirited, love exploring the world believe that real connections make the best memories.
Hi, I am Syrine,
I started solo traveling in 2018 and it changed my life, from introvert to extrovert. Along the way, I loved meeting people, but also felt how hard it can be to find connection when traveling alone.
I’m building Just Gutsy so no one has to feel alone on the road — and so anyone who’s still shy to take that first step has a welcoming place to start. 💛
Expérience Eye-Contact
L'événement **Eye-contact** vise principalement à améliorer les compétences en communication non verbale des participants. Voici les objectifs principaux de cet événement :
* **Renforcer la communication** : Apprendre à établir un contact visuel efficace pour capter l'attention et renforcer le message transmis lors des échanges.
* **Susciter l'empathie** : Utiliser le regard pour établir un lien émotionnel avec les interlocuteurs, favorisant ainsi une meilleure compréhension mutuelle.
* **Gagner la confiance** : Développer la capacité à maintenir le contact visuel, ce qui inspire confiance et crédibilité auprès de l'auditoire.
* **Surmonter la timidité** : Aider les participants à dépasser leur peur du jugement en pratiquant le contact visuel dans des environnements rassurants.
* **Améliorer la mémorisation** : Favoriser une meilleure rétention des informations échangées grâce à un contact visuel soutenu.
Cet événement est donc conçu pour offrir aux participants des outils pratiques et des exercices qui leur permettront de maîtriser cette technique de communication essentielle.
**L'experience *:***
*L'un en face de l'autre, aucun des deux ne conversant ni ne s'efforçant de se rendre intéressant.*
S'asseoir et se regarder, sans qu'on ne dise ni ne fasse quoi que ce soit.
Ni parler, ni s'agiter, ni rire nerveusement ni être embarrassé.
On s'apercevra que l'on a tendance à confronter avec une partie du corps plutôt qu'à confronter seulement, ou à utiliser un système de confrontation plutôt qu'à **être simplement là**. Le nom de cet exercice serait incorrect si confronter signifiait faire quelque chose. **Toute l'action consiste à habituer à être là**, à un mètre en face d'un autre, sans s'excuser ni bouger, ni sursauter ni se défendre. Le fait de confronter avec une partie du corps peut provoquer des somatiques dans la partie du corps dont on se sert pour confronter. **La solution est simplement de confronter et d'être là.** Simplement être là et confronter, et on atteint un gain majeur stable.

Lock your phone away and immerse yourself in an evening designed to slow you down.
This reading party is your chance to disconnect from screens, unwind from the daily buzz, and meet like-minded people.
It’s a little escape into a different world — where time slows down, people are open to connect, and you can truly focus on yourself.
It's the perfect way to enjoy your weekend!
**What to expect:**
📖 Peaceful (me-)time to read that book you’ve been meaning to start (or finish!)
🤝 The chance to meet and connect with like-minded (wannabe) booklovers
💬 A space where connection comes easily — no rush, no pressure, no notifications
🫖 Community vibes, a welcoming atmosphere, and plenty of time to relax

This is your time to sit back and enjoy undistracted reading time.
Remember to bring your own book, comic, or poetry bundle (we love all literature).
**Connect with others**
Chat & connect with others, but only if you feel like it. Meet new people, share stories about your favourite reads, and enjoy meaningful conversations. We create laid-back spaces where talking to strangers is the norm and connection is made easy.
**About your phone:** *Your phone will rest in our “phone hotel,” and we’ll be its bodyguards. But just so you know, if it magically disappears, learns to fly, or mysteriously breaks, The Offline Club can’t be held responsible.*
*Not quite ready to let it go? No worries, just switch it off and keep it tucked away, out of sight.*
We love and appreciate the venues that host our events! Please remember that your consumption gives the venues one more reason to love us back!
**We can’t wait to swap screen time for real time with you.**
Offline hugs,
Stefania,

🎭 Oser Être Soi – Théâtre à Ciel Ouvert
"Transformez votre anxiété sociale en terrain de jeu."
🛑 Le constat
Vous avez déjà beaucoup lu, médité ou suivi des thérapies... Pourtant, malgré la théorie, la peur du jugement et l'angoisse sociale persistent dès que vous franchissez le pas de votre porte. Pourquoi ? Parce que la liberté ne s'apprend pas dans les livres : elle s'expérimente dans l'action. 🏃♂️
✨ Le concept : L'Expérience du Réel
Ici, nous quittons les murs clos pour faire du monde notre scène. L’objectif n’est pas de devenir un acteur, mais de redevenir l’acteur de votre propre vie. À travers le jeu et l’improvisation, nous allons là où se cachent vos blocages pour les "déshabiller" avec bienveillance, dans un cadre sécurisant et progressif. 🛡️
📝 Au programme (2h)
🗣️ Improvisations en espace public : Des exercices ludiques et des interactions spontanées pour apprivoiser le regard de l'autre.
🎯 Défis d'audace progressifs : Explorer votre zone d'inconfort pour réaliser que le "danger" social est souvent une illusion.
🧘♂️ Libération par le corps : Utiliser le mouvement et la voix pour briser les carcans physiques de l'anxiété.
💬 Partage final (30 min) : Un moment pour ancrer vos réussites et vos prises de conscience
.
🌈 Pourquoi nous rejoindre ?
🚀 Passer du "savoir" au "faire" : La seule façon de dissoudre la peur est de la traverser par l'action concrète.
🤡 S'amuser de ses peurs : Utiliser l'humour et le jeu pour désamorcer les mécanismes de défense de l'ego.
💎 Retrouver son authenticité : Oser être soi, sans masque, au milieu de la foule.
📍 Infos Pratiques
👥 Public cible : Toute personne souhaitant oser être soi, dépasser ses peurs sociales et s'amuser en expérimentant dans le monde réel.
🌱 Pré-requis : Envie de jouer, d'expérimenter et de se confronter doucement au monde.
Prix= 15€
A très vite,
Paul 🙏💕

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Google Analytics Alternatives
**Google Analytics Alternatives**
Is it finally time to make the switch away from Google Analytics? Two-and-a-half years ago Jason Packer asked this question at Columbus Web Analytics Wednesday.
Since then: Google’s Universal Analytics has been sunset, we’ve changed our name to Columbus Data & Analytics Wednesday, and Jason has released two editions of his book “Google Analytics Alternatives”.
Fresh off the release of the 2nd edition of his book, we thought it was time to re-open this conversation. While people love to complain about it, GA’s market share has remained relatively constant (at least in the United States). Why is that? You won’t find any complaints about GA4 in this talk, but rather an overview of what’s currently available in the market and how to frame your decision-making process.
We’ll also be giving out some free copies of Jason’s book! So even if you’ve got a “GA4Lyfe” tattoo (no judgement), there’s free books to go with the free pizza and beer.
Thanks to our 2026 sponsors:
