Chiang Mai Professionals, Expats, and Digital Nomads

### Date: Thursday, 18th September

Time: 12:00 PM
Location: Downtown Garden (vegan restaurant)
Our Thursday Coffee Meetups have taken us on journeys from farms in Australia to the paradoxes of living in a tourist town, from the meaning of power in relationships to reflections on ethical living, family struggles, and humor in unexpected places. Each week, we’ve found that simple questions can open doors to extraordinary conversations.
This lunch is about continuing that spirit — but with more time to dive deeper. Over fresh vegan food in the garden, we’ll share insights and stories through thoughtful prompts and ice-breaking questions such as:

• What is one experience that completely changed how you see power — in yourself, in nature, or in relationships?
• Why do we often long to be tourists in places where we would never want to live?
• In moments of crisis, what do you discover is truly your priority?
• What is one lesson you learned the hard way, but are now grateful for?

Expect meaningful dialogue, genuine laughter, and connections that go far beyond small talk. 🌱
Come curious. Leave connected.

4th Sept prompt question was: ✨ Icebreaker Question ✨
“Imagine that humanity is about to experience a major shift — it could be technological, spiritual, environmental, or cultural. From your perspective and passion, what is the one insight or lesson you believe we must not forget as we step into this new chapter?”

Stay tuned for new question.
