About us

👋 If small talk drains you, deep conversations light you up, and you’re curious about many things - from science and philosophy to art and more - you'll feel at home here!

💡 Groups are kept small to deepen conversations and give everyone a chance to speak. Each discussion is guided by currated theme-specific question cards and knowledge prepared in advance by the organizers - so we go beyond opinions and debate.

🤍 Real connection and learning happen through the conversation by listening closely, being playful, curious and exploring ideas together.

🧩 Before each event, we share interactive “food for thought” on Instagram to warm up the conversation.

✨ Follow us on Instagram @lifelong__curious for upcoming events, bite-sized knowledge, conversation prompts and takeaways, community moments, and all the good stuff!

----------------------------- 🌐 Shared Community Contributions -----------------------------

This community exists because a significant amount of care and work goes into organizing each event. This includes:

• Finding and coordinating quiet venues
• Preparing and facilitating events
• Managing logistics and communication
• Maintaining social media and community outreach (which helps grow the group and secure venues)
• Covering the increasing Meetup platform fees and related expenses

To keep this sustainable, participants are invited to contribute in one of two ways:
• Volunteer your time or skills to help organize, host, or support events (such social media outreach)
• Pay the event contribution, which helps cover the costs above
Both forms of contribution are equally valued 💛

-------------------------- 🚫 Respect, Community Integrity & Safety --------------------------

This is not a commercial service, but a community we build together. Mutual respect and trust are foundational.

Harassment, discrimination, or insults - in person or online - will result in an immediate ban.
Similarly, committing to attend and contribute (financially or otherwise) and then not following through undermines the shared trust that keeps this space alive. This may result in exclusion from future events.

Our discussions - and the care put into shaping them - are part of what makes this community unique. Please don’t copy paste event descriptions, questions, or the overall structure of our events without permission.

Say the Unsaid & Recite the Unread - Cosy Poetry Picnic

Say the Unsaid & Recite the Unread - Cosy Poetry Picnic

Fraunhoferstraße U-Bahn (entrance Baaderstr), Baaderstraße 76, München, DE

Have you ever read a line that felt like it knew you? Or even carried words inside you that ache to cast their echoes into the world and pierce its deaf ears?

Join us for a cosy Sunday morning poetry picnic - a circle of curious souls gathering beneath the shade of trees to share poems, reflections, and moments of deep connection as the morning sun warms the grass around us.

Bring a poem of your own that has been buried in your journal collecting dust, peeping through the pages and longing to be heard. Or just bring poems you love - that gave you goosebumps, synced with your heartbeat, inspired you, comforted you, or revealed something you couldn't quite put into words yourself.

WHAT to expect?

  • Deep, human connection through poetry
  • A relaxed picnic gathering surrounded by nature
  • Resonance - Poets that open inner worlds… and awaken something in your own

WHO is this for?

  • Anyone curious, you don’t need to be a poet!
  • Whether you write, love poetry, or simply want to listen and feel - this space is open to you :-)

WHAT to bring ?

  • Poems in any language - your own or ones you love
  • A blanket or something to sit on
  • Breakfast, tea, snacks, pastries, something to share if you like
  • Yourself, as you are :-)

Contribution: €5 to cover shared basic costs (PayPal or cash). If you’d like to help support the continuation of these curated, moderated events, donations of up to €10 are warmly welcomed 🤍 You can find more about our organisation and other ways to support in the group description.

🌿 Community Guidelines

  • Only attend if you’re on the attendee list.
  • Listen actively and with curiosity, without interrupting.
  • Engage with ideas, not individuals. We’re here to explore, learn and share, not to argue.
  • Avoid no-shows and same-day dropouts - you'll be flagged as "no show". If this happens, please get in touch, otherwise you’ll be removed from the next meetup. If repeated, you may be removed from the group.
  • Please note that the attendee list may be adjusted to accommodate new members or when participants were flagged as late drop-outs or no-shows.

Photos and videos will be taken during the event to share highlights and help grow our community. If you’d rather not be in any of them, just let us know in writing before the event - we’ll gladly respect that.
