We’re back for another evening of real stories before the holidays. Let’s get together to share (and listen to) true stories in the most useful, honest, supportive, inspiring and transformational way.

Anyone who wants to share their story can do so for 5 – 7min and tell true tales about life, experiences, passion, goals, taboos, cultures, romance, adversity – you name it. We believe every true story is an opportunity to learn something about others, ourselves and has the potential to make a difference to our understanding of the world around us.

Our goal is to meet monthly in a prejudice and judgment free environment to share true stories that make us think, laugh, cry, hope, wonder, learn and care. Nobody is forced to tell a story, so feel free to come and just listen to others’ true stories.
Sounds interesting? Come join our 2nd session. Bring friends if you want but above all, bring ears to listen, a mouth to tell and a heart to feel.

Admission: Free (but your kind donation will help pay the rent and for refreshments)

FAQ:

Q: What type of stories can I tell?
A: We want people to share real life stories about their lives – experiences trying new things, taking on challenges, stepping out from their comfort zone, hilarious faux pas, travel adventures and misadventures … as long as it is their own real story. This is NOT an event for debates, political speeches and religious sermons. We also do not tolerate offensive, hateful and objectifying talks.

A: Yes, definitely.
