FREE Talk: Why Do I Feel Lonely — Even Surrounded by People?

Living in Budapest as an expat can be full of new faces, social gatherings and events. Yet many of us still carry that quiet question: “Why do I feel alone, even when I’m not?”
You’re not the only one. Loneliness is one of the most common struggles expats share — and it often has less to do with who’s around you, and more to do with what’s happening inside your own mind.
In this free introductory talk, we’ll explore:

• How the mind can replay old feelings of isolation, even in new situations
• Why this hidden barrier makes it harder to truly connect with people
• A simple demonstration of what’s really going on beneath the surface
• Practical steps to open up, reach others — and be reached

Expect a warm, friendly space, new insights, and the chance to connect with others who understand the expat experience.
