Cross Cultural Connections

A community circle for people who enjoy good company, cultural exchange, and thoughtful conversation.


Cross cultural community

Why This Circle?

To bring people together across cultures in a way that feels human, grounded, honest and real.

Rather than debating ideas or defining identities, this circle offers space to meet culture as something lived — shaping how we relate, belong, and make sense of the world.

What We Do Together

  • Whole-group dialogue
  • Small-group conversations
  • Shared reflective activities
  • Learning from lived experience

How the Circle is Held

The circle is lightly facilitated to support shared airtime, respect, and inclusion. Agreements around boundaries and respect are introduced at the first gathering and developed together as a group.


Who This Is For

  • People curious about culture
  • Those open to learning and listening
  • Participants from all walks of life
  • People able to contribute respectfully to shared space

This is not a therapy or support group. It works best when participants are resourced, self-responsible, and able to contribute to a shared space.
