Swiss Chan Circle – Zurich Mindful Hiking & Outdoor Tea
FOR WHOM
Nature lovers, tea enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to slow down, breathe fresh air, and share a mindful moment outdoors.
DESCRIPTION
Step outside and let nature be your teacher. This outdoor gathering blends a gentle walk through the Zurich countryside with the timeless ritual of brewing and sharing tea in the open air.
Mindful Hiking (徒步)
We walk at a relaxed, unhurried pace — noticing sounds, textures, and the quality of each breath. The hike is suitable for all fitness levels and focuses on presence rather than distance.
Outdoor Tea Ceremony (户外茶课)
At a scenic resting spot along the route, we pause to brew and share Chinese tea together. Learn the basics of gongfu-style brewing in a relaxed outdoor setting: how water temperature, steeping time, and intention shape each cup.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Gentle mindful walk in the Zurich area
Outdoor tea brewing and sharing — all equipment provided
Quiet community connection in nature
Comfortable walking shoes recommended; dress for the weather

Meaningful Conversations Zurich | What Deserves My Attention?
**⚠️ Registration via Luma is required.**
Meetup RSVP alone does not confirm your spot.
[Register here](https://luma.com/tmrorxc8)
Maximum group size: 10 participants.
***
Meaningful Conversations Zurich is a small and intentional gathering space for people who value honest conversations, thoughtful reflection and genuine human connection.
A space to slow down, listen carefully and speak more openly than we usually do in everyday life.
There is no specific expertise required and no expectation to perform, impress or have the right answers.
Each gathering explores a small number of questions connected to everyday life, relationships, responsibility, purpose, uncertainty, personal growth and the human experience.
The intention is not to debate or convince one another, but to create space for genuine exchange and different perspectives.
**Who this is for**
This gathering may resonate with you if you enjoy thoughtful conversations, personal reflection, curiosity about different perspectives, and meeting people beyond the usual networking or social small talk.
**Practical Information**
• Limited to 10 participants to support meaningful connection and a comfortable atmosphere.
• The participant mix continues to evolve with each gathering. Diverse perspectives and experiences are warmly welcomed and help enrich the quality of the conversations.
• The gathering takes place outdoors whenever possible, usually near the lake in Zurich. In case of bad weather, an indoor alternative will be communicated in advance.
Registration
To keep things organised, registration happens through Luma rather than through WhatsApp messages.
***
Location:
**China Garden Area, Seefeld, Zurich.**
The exact meeting point will be shared with registered participants before the gathering.
Since launching in Zurich, several participants have already returned for multiple gatherings

Kes (1969)
**Directed by [Ken Loach](https://www.festival-cannes.com/en/p/ken-loach/).** Named by the British Film Institute as one of the ten best British films of the century.
**Please RSVP on Meetup if you plan to attend! Buy your ticket in advance at the link below. We'll meet at the entrance to the movie theater at 18:00. The screening begins at 18:30.**
*Ken Loach’s Kes, is cinema’s quintessential portrait of working-class Northern England. Billy (an astonishingly naturalistic David Bradley) is a fifteen-year-old miner’s son whose close bond with a wild kestrel provides him with a spiritual escape from his dead-end life. Kes brought to the big screen the sociopolitical engagement Loach had established in his work for the BBC, and pushed the British “angry young man” film of the sixties into a new realm of authenticity, using real locations and nonprofessional actors. Loach’s poignant coming-of-age drama remains the now legendary director’s most beloved and influential film.*
*Source: [The Criterion Collection](https://www.criterion.com/films/27560-kes)*
**Please [buy your ticket online in advance](https://filmpodium.ch/film/172549/kes) to secure your spot. Seats cannot be reserved online, so we will coordinate seating arrangements at the theater before the screening. It's important to arrive early to pick up your tickets, so please be at Xenix by 18:15 at the latest. After the movie, we'll gather in the lobby for a beverage and discussion of the film.**

Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild!

Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you!

Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington.
The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo.
Writing is largely a solitary craft. Practicing with others in a community setting may be the thing you need to fire your own routine.

The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly.
Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome.
The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit.
Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times.

Happy writing!
