Meeting strangers

Connect with new people and have meaningful conversations at The School of Life.

Have you ever had a conversation with a stranger that you’ll never forget? A conversation where you felt a deep connection in a short time? A conversation that made you look at the world in a different way? A conversation in which you felt you not only got to know the other person, but also got to know yourself better?

Perhaps you think these kinds of conversations are necessarily rare, a matter of luck. Our premise is that under the right circumstances, these conversations are not that hard to come by. All it takes is people we don't yet know, a relaxed atmosphere and good questions. This is what The School of Life offers you during Meeting Strangers.

During this afternoon, you will have 10-minute conversations with a variety of people, as everyone can participate, regardless of age, relationship status or gender. The facilitator will give you surprising questions that ensure the conversations move beyond small talk, and that you really learn something special about the other person. And probably about yourself too.
