Wat we doen
Hi there! This is a social meetup for anyone who considers themselves gifted. Giftedness can sometimes feel lonely and it may be difficult to find people who share the same broad scope of interest and curiosity, depth of self-reflection, heightened sensitivity, or quick insight into how things could be better.
This meetup is open to anyone who identifies with (some of the) characteristics of giftedness (see list of characteristics below) and would like to chat, share and get to know each other. It is not an IQ club or a place to show off how smart you are. Instead, it's an open, non-judgmental social meetup focused on connecting with others. We talk about our interests, the challenges and joys of giftedness, and whatever more is on our minds.
If you feel this is for you, join!
