CONVERSATION CAFE TODAY!
This Saturday, March 20, is the first day of SPRING. The weather is starting to get warmer, the days are getting longer, and new leaves and flowers are coming out. Springtime means change and new beginnings. And many schools are heading into "spring break" before a new term starts.

Today at Conversation Cafe at 4PM we want to talk about Spring around the world. What does Spring look like in your country? What do you like to do this time of year? We want to hear from you - so we hope you will join us!

“MUSIC” CAFE!

Can you imagine life without music? We think for most of us, songs and music are an important part of our lives and bring us lots of joy!

Tomorrow at our Conversation Café on Zoom at 4PM we want to learn a little more about Music around the World! We want to talk about the music you like and learn the sounds of music from our different cultures.

If you happen to play an instrument and can demonstrate over Zoom, please do. We'd love to hear you play! Or if you have a favorite song from your country you'd like to share with us, be ready to "screen share" with us.

Hi Cafe friends!

Do you like to TRAVEL? I'm guessing that most of us that enjoy meeting people from other cultures at Conversation Cafe also love to travel and explore new places.

We invite you to join Cafe tomorrow (Thursday) as we talk about "traveling". We want to hear about interesting sites in your country you have been to and places you've visited around the world. You will learn some interesting places to visit in California and the US. And we will think about why travel and exploration is so intriguing and loved by so many.

So, join the fun tomorrow! And invite any of your friends to join in too.

Hi Cafe friends,

Santa Barbara is a coastal city and beaches are a big part of life and activity for those who live here and those who visit. And Santa Barbara has some beautiful beaches and fun things to do at the beach!

Tomorrow (Thursday) at our virtual Conversation Cafe we will share about the beaches and beach activities in Santa Barbara. We want to hear from you about things you enjoy doing at the beach or coast and activities you may want to try next time you are at the beach.

So, please join us for Café tomorrow at 4PM. It’s a great way to make friends with people from the Santa Barbara community and enjoy English conversation!

Hi Cafe friends!

This Friday, June 5, is National Donut Day in America. I don’t know about you, but if I could live on only donuts and stay healthy, I wouldn't mind that at all! I confess that I love desserts and good food.

Tomorrow, let’s talk about food we love to eat! We want to hear about the delicious food and meals from your country. And I'm curious if your country has any unique or strange "national days" like in America.

So, hope you can join the Zoom Cafe tomorrow!

Hi Café friends,

Today at our Conversation Cafe Zoom time at 4PM we are talking about ART! It's more a part of our life than we realize.

Art is all around us and makes life so interesting. Whether you are artistic or not, I think we all value art in our lives.

This weekend is the Memorial Day holiday and the big event in Santa Barbara each year is the I'Madonnari art festival at the Old Mission. The art festival will be online this year as they show "live" pictures and videos of artists creating their street paintings at home. I encourage to check it out here.

We always talk about "art" at Conversation Cafe as we lead into this holiday weekend. So, today at our Cafe Zoom we invite you to share your thoughts about art and what it means to you. And if you enjoy creating art yourself, we would love for you to show a sample of your work!
