SPEED FRIENDING
What sparks connection between strangers?
How do brief encounters turn into curiosity, resonance, or unexpected familiarity?

This Speed Friending session is a playful, low-pressure format designed to meet new people through guided conversation and shared presence. Over a series of short, rotating exchanges, participants are invited to move beyond small talk and explore ideas, experiences, and perspectives in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.

No preparation or prior experience needed - just come as you are. Whether you’re new to the city, curious about others, or simply open to connection, this is a space to meet like-minded people, exchange energy, and enjoy the moment together.
