What happens when phones leave the table? At a phone-free dinner, phones stay in bags. People eat, look up, and talk.
Mika goes to one after work. She knows no one there. First, she feels a little shy. Then she asks, “What food do you like?”
A woman says, “I love hot soup.” They laugh and talk about cooking. Soon, Mika forgets her phone. She listens and asks another question.
At the end, they plan lunch together. A phone connects us far away. But no phone helps us connect here. Put your phone away, and find a face.
