F*ck the Small Talk has traveled the world from Berlin to London, Lisbon, Buenos Aires, and Medellin, and is now coming to Mexico City! 🇲🇽

📦 WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?
FTST is a one-of-a-kind social experience where strangers come together for an afternoon of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. It’s also just a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!

Join us for of games, talks, and connections with friends you haven’t met yet. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you have been in Mexico City every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life then this is the place for you. 🙌

🎈 HOW DOES IT WORK?
We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people).
We'll have our own awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. (You’ll never have to speak in public if you don’t want) You'll be guided by an experienced host who'll make sure everything goes smoothly. 🍭

💛 WHAT THEY SAY
🗣 “Great way to connect with people in a more meaningful way. Get to the heart of the matter, dive straight into what really counts!” - Matthias

🗣 “This is the kind of activity humanity needs every weekend. Thank you for all.” - Sonya

🗣 “F*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.” - Monika

🗣 “I loved F*ck the small talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!” - Brenda

🗣 "it’s a wonderful experience, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - Sara

🗣 “Lively, interesting, introspective, completely open and no judgement. Everyone that joined was ready for great conversation and helped with different perspectives. So much fun! I can't wait for the next one! “ - Yaz

👋 MEET RUDRA, YOUR HOST
Rudra is Canadian-Indian who came to Mexico City for health reasons and stayed because he fell in love with its vibrant atmosphere. Embracing openness, he loved connecting deeply with locals and foreigners. He is also slowly growing brand offering locally crafted unique premium furniture designs.
"It's been a joy immersing with beautiful people in a social and entrepreneurial context within CDMX", and Rudra looks forward to paying it forward via FTST! PS: He loves super underground electronic music - so if you're into that feel free to let him know!

• Why do you charge?
We value our time and put a lot of love, planning, and effort into creating & designing these experiences. ♥️ This is our project/business and what we give to the world and we think everything should be a fair exchange!
