What we’re about
Do you look at a screen all day? Want to make some real-world connections in a low-key, no-pressure way? Enjoy reading, writing, puzzling, or just chilling in coffee shops? Hoping to decrease your time online?
Join us at an offline cafe hangout!
The goal is simple: hang out with other people in coffee shops and cafes around Vancouver while doing various offline activities (Bring Your Own Activity: read a book, try a puzzle, write a poem, knit a scarf, do a crossword).
The structure is also simple:
- 5-10ish minutes to settle in, grab something to eat or drink, greet each other
- 40-45ish minutes of offline hanging out. Remember to BYOA and put the phone away during this time.
- 10-20ish minutes of socializing and chatting (if you want!)
- Option to keep hanging out and chatting, return to your activities, or go home.
This group is for you if:
- You want to meet people, but in a low-key, introvert-friendly type of way where you only have to talk as much as you want
- You like hanging out in coffee shops
- You have a hobby you want to devote more time to (or want to pick up a new one)
- You're trying to decrease your screen time and want some accountability
See you soon!
This group is inspired by (but not affiliated with) The Offline Club®, a movement started in Amsterdam
