Unexpected Connections: A Pop-Up Gathering

Some meetings in life feel accidental. Others feel as though they were quietly waiting to happen.

This small pop-up afternoon gathering in Torquay is for people who enjoy thoughtful conversation and the simple pleasure of meeting others beyond the usual routines. It’s a space to share reflections, stories, and perspectives about community, chance encounters, and what it’s like living in the area during the winter months — the quieter rhythms, the hidden challenges, and the unexpected positives.

There is no set format and no pressure to speak. You might find yourself in an easy conversation, listening to someone else’s experience, or simply enjoying being among open, curious people.

Hosted by Brian Snellgrove, writer and thinker on community life.
