Beyond the pictures

Welcome to our digital living room

We’re glad you’re here. This is where we collect our letters and the conversations that grow out of them.

Every letter starts with something we experienced and our own take on it. But we’re just as curious about how you see it.

So grab a cup of tea, read a letter and join the conversation. Agree with us, disagree, ask questions, share your own experiences or tell us what you think we might be missing.

We love a good conversation. The kind where you can challenge each other, disagree strongly and still enjoy each other’s company. Where you can change your mind – or not. You might show someone else a different perspective on things. Or you might learn something new, about the world or yourself.

New here? You can read one of our letters for free to get a feel for what Beyond the Pictures is about. And if you’d like to stick around, read more and join the conversations, we’d love to welcome you as a member.
