Meliink Sketch walk in Zurich
Hi everyone,
I'm organizing a small sketch walk in Zurich.
The idea is simple: we walk through a few beautiful spots in the city, stop to do fun drawing exercises, learn a few stories about the places and meet new people.
No drawing experience is needed at all. This is more about creativity and slowing down than making perfect art.
I'll provide paper and basic materials.
I'm doing the first one on **Sunday, 21st of June, from around 10 AM to 1 PM.**
After the walk, anyone who wants is welcome to join for a relaxed coffee and chat.
Everything will be in English, and absolute beginners are very welcome.
I enjoy sketching and exploring cities, and after living in Zurich for a while I thought it would be fun to bring those things together.
If this sounds interesting, join us!
Our first event will be a small group (6–8 people).
This is a pay-what-you-want activity. The ticket here is free to reserve your spot, and donations are welcome at the end of the walk via Cash or Twint.
See you soon!

Open Sharing Circle ✨ (Deutsch)
Open Sharing Circle ✨
***
**Wichtig: Bitte sei pünktlich, damit der Austausch möglichst nicht gestört wird :)**
Wir sind draussen bei der Blatterwiese. Es wird sonnig und warm werden.
Zuerst machen wir einen Sharingcircle und danach klingen wir den Tag aus zusammen. Wenn du willst kannst du etwas zum Essen mitnehmen zum Teilen.
_____________
Dieser Circle findet auf Deutsch statt.
Wir kommen zusammen, um im Moment präsent zu sein und uns so zu zeigen, wie wir wirklich sind.
Die Intention ist, in einem sicheren und vertrauensvollen Raum zu teilen — Gedanken, Emotionen, Ziele, Meinungen — alles, was sich für dich im Moment lebendig anfühlt.
Niemand muss etwas teilen, und jede\*r ist willkommen.
⸻
Worum geht es?
• Stärkung von Selbstwahrnehmung & Selbstvertrauen
• Persönliches Wachstum
• Aufbau tiefer Beziehungen & Vertrauen
• Menschen auf einer echten, menschlichen Ebene kennenlernen
• Sich frei fühlen, sich authentisch auszudrücken
⸻
Circle-Vereinbarungen
Frei & freiwillig
Du darfst alles teilen, was du möchtest — und musst nichts teilen.
Sprich aus deiner eigenen Erfahrung
Teile aus deiner persönlichen Perspektive: deine Erfahrungen, Gedanken, Gefühle und Wahrnehmungen.
Der Raumhalter kann dich dabei sanft unterstützen, indem er als Zeichen eine Hand auf die Brust legt.
Respekt & Vertraulichkeit
Wir begegnen uns respektvoll und ohne zu urteilen.
Was im Circle geteilt wird, bleibt im Circle.
Rede-Objekt
Nur die Person, die das Rede-Objekt hält, spricht. Verständnisfragen sind willkommen.
Redezeit & Raum teilen
Nimm dir Zeit beim Teilen und lass gleichzeitig Raum für andere.
Ratschläge & Unterstützung
Sprich für dich selbst und gib Ratschläge nur mit Einverständnis.
Bitte frage ausdrücklich nach, wenn du Ratschläge oder Unterstützung möchtest.
Trigger & Emotionen
Jede\*r ist für die eigenen Gefühle und Themen selbst verantwortlich.
Starke Emotionen (z. B. Weinen) sind willkommen und werden respektiert. Unterstützung wird nur angeboten, wenn sie gewünscht ist.
Eigene Bedürfnisse
Kümmere dich selbst um deine Bedürfnisse (WC, Essen usw.) und respektiere den Gruppenraum.
Raumhalter
Das Organisationsteam wählt Raumhalter, die den Ablauf des Circles unterstützen und darauf achten, dass die Vereinbarungen eingehalten werden.
Der Circle kann bei Bedarf sanft unterbrochen werden.
Fokusrunde
Der Raumhalter kann intuitiv eine kurze Fokusrunde initiieren, wenn es unterstützend wirkt.
Mobiltelefone
Bitte schalte dein Handy auf lautlos und nutze es nur für Notizen, falls nötig.
Zeit
Dauer: ca. 3 Stunden.
Du kannst jederzeit gehen, idealerweise während der Pausen (etwa alle 45 Minuten).
Nach dem Circle gibt es Raum, um zu bleiben, sich zu verbinden oder weiter zu teilen, wenn du magst.
Floating Down the Limmat Together
Floating down the Limmat is back to kick-start your summer! 💙💙💙
Bring your boat, air mattress, or inflatable sea creature and tighten your life jacket for an adventure downstream.
🔥🔥🔥At the end of the event, where we end the floating, there is a public grill you can use it to grill or a restaurant where you can order foods and drink.
We'll gather on the grass at Wipkinger Park from 13:00 to prepare for a chill ride down the river. We'll start to depart around 14:00, so we have an hour to socialize and inflate our fleet before we slowly drift our way down to Glazenberg (Grillplatz Allmend).
If you have empty spaces on your boat and are looking for a pirate crew, then please post it on the WhatsApp chat. There are always people looking for a ride ☠️
📱 Join our WhatsApp chat to keep up with the event (everyone can text two days before the event):

If you cannot access the chat, try opening the link on the WhatsApp web version on your laptop.
Here's what you should bring:
* Tasty food & refreshing drinks 🍹
* Sunscreen to ward off those pesky UV rays 🧴
* Rope (you never know when you’ll need it!) 🛟
* Life vest (Safety first - One per boat) 🦺
* Comfortable flip-flops for land transitions 🩴
* Watertight bags for your precious belongings 👜
* And most importantly, a sunny mood! 🐬
🔱 Disclaimer: Your safety is your own responsibility. Please ensure you can swim and remember to drink responsibly. Our team will guide you down the river, especially through one or two tricky spots, but it's important to follow instructions when given.
