Elefin café sits on a fairly quiet street in central Bangkok. The interior is large with a cozy mezzanine with a small outdoor terrace above part of the dining area. It is decorated in a unique style, fusion of modern art and contemporary Thai. It offers a panorama of a lively green yard, when you are drinking Elefin’s home-roasted coffee. It is fostering a relaxing and creatives atmosphere to wonder your imaginations and get away from your real life.
Tango-Milonga is one of its scheduled events. It runs every Saturday nights. The classic Argentinean and Spanish music fills the air. Participants arrive while wear smiles and whose glees lend positive energy to the cafe. The event pulls together different generations, a variety of nations and backgrounds. Even with all differences, their souls resemble each other. The generation of the 50s – 60s feels a powerful nostalgia for the time they kicked the dance pitch to drain out stresses from their hard works, and they shared some times with their partners and imagined together a better future.
The event also makes young participants jump out, even for few hours, from the virtual internet life, and lively exchange ideas, happiness, friendship, in the real world, with others.
Our behaviors are strongly influenced by our cultural values and ideologies. The cultural values have been passing on by direct communication of generations.
It is good to see that the number of young participants increases. Thanks to Elefin that facilitate a direct contact of generations
