The Half Pint Pilgrimage

One pub. Twenty-one evenings. A quiet experiment in public life and belonging.

🗓️ Monday, July 21 - Sunday, August 10

Every evening, I’ll be visiting the same pub in Leeds. Observing, lightly connecting, and sharing what unfolds.

I’d love for you to follow along.

Latest from the pub

I’m sharing something small each day, sometimes a fun moment, sometimes something I was too nervous to say.

Searching for a third place yourself? Let’s chat.

I’m holding one hour each afternoon for virtual coffee chats during my 21-day experiment. I’d love to connect with 10 people while I’m in Yorkshire.

If you’ve been thinking about third places, pivots, or loneliness, I’d love to connect deeply with you.

Book a chat here.

Where this all began

This project grew out of a few essays I’ve written on third places, public life, and my long-running fascination with Britain.

Third place as first priority

Belonging in public while far from home

Britain in moderation

Thanks for being here. If you know someone this might resonate with, I’d love for you to share it.

Happy public life!
