Meet & Stroll: Freedom and happiness

Wed 19 May 2021, 17:00 - 18:00

We can still take a walk in the neighborhood! Time to get out and about, meet new neighbors and discover north-east Utrecht! In this light-hearted dialogue series Meet & Stroll, you will meet different people from the neighborhood and discover new places as we walk together towards a new spring!

Freedom and happiness

In the fifth edition of the dialogue series meet and walk, we walk in the middle of spring with a dialogue about freedom and happiness. What does freedom mean to you? Does freedom make you happy or do you get choice stress from too much freedom? How free do you feel in your environment and in your neighborhood. How do you deal with freedom? How much freedom do you give others and how do you set your limits. Which freedoms do you consider most important? The introduction and preparation via Zoom takes place on 19th May. After that, you can plan a walk at a time that suits you and your partner.

A. Vogelenbuurt & Wittevrouwen city route (4 – 5.5km), start at Paardekathedral Veeartsenijstraat

Conversation guide

  1. Get to know one another: who are you, what do you think about freedom and happiness?
  2. Share experiences: Share a beautiful experience with the feeling of being free.
  3. Dream together: What freedoms do you continue to pursue and are most important to you?
  4. Do: What could you do to experience that freedom?
  5. Evaluate: What will you take away from this conversation?

How does it work?

  1. In a first relaxing online meeting, we will get to know each other, get to know “Meet and Stroll”, and get familiar with the theme of the first stroll. The meeting will take place online via Zoom on the third Wednesday of the month from 4 – 5 pm. Think of a question you would like to get asked by the way of a first introduction. And what would you like to know about the other person?
  2. You agree to go for an in-person walk in the neighborhood with a neighbor. This stroll will take place on the following Saturday at 10:30 am. You will receive a suggestion in advance for a meeting point, route, and a guide with questions about the theme of this Meet and Stroll. The guidelines are based on the principles of appreciative inquiry.
  3. In the next relaxed online meeting, we will harvest what the Meet & Stroll has brought to everyone, meet new participants, and introduce the theme of the next Meet & Stroll. Do you have any special requests? Suggestions for places or routes? Send us an email at info@wijkwijzerernoordoost.nl.
