What we’re about
This group is for those of us who want to shake things up, not take things for granted, savour the little joys of the day, live new experiences, learn, and finally: change.
We are a community of open-minded people who like to listen, learn, and seek to create meaningful change (in our lives and/or around us). Whether it's trying a new hobby, delving into a new topic of discussion, or attending thoughtful events and workshops, our group is dedicated to fostering curiosity, growth, and personal development.
Join us to make meaningful connections, learn new stuff, and embrace the joy of constant discovery (no pressure 😃)

Solo travellers: casual hangout in Wellington (Sundays 4pm)
The Albatross Fountain, Wellington, NZNo pressure, no plan—just new friends ✨
Whether you’re visiting Wellington for the first time, recently relocated, or simply love connecting with curious people, this weekly meetup is the perfect way to share stories, make friends, and go explore, as a group, the magic that Wellington has to offer 🇳🇿
What to expect?
• Casual & hostless: no formal host, no schedule: just show up, be yourself, meet fellow solo travellers & expats and decide as a group where you feel like going
• Central meeting point: it is surrounded by cultural landmarks, cafes, and restaurants, making it a convenient and safe starting point.
• Open to everyone: whether you are a local, an expat or just passing through for a few days, you are welcome to join.
How to talk with strangers?
(and create meaningful connections)
To help you get started, I curated a little game of ridiculously good questions you can ask to break the ice, shift the conversation from dull to intriguing and fun, and eventually create meaningful connection quickly. (that's what I do for a living: I'm a question asker 🙂)
Why join?
• Meet open-minded travellers and locals who are keen to connect, learn and have fun together.
• Experience Wellington... as a group.
• Be part of a global community that celebrates solo travelling and meaningful connections between foreign and locals.
How does it works?
1. Arrive at the meeting spot at the scheduled time.
2. Look for other joiners—friendly faces and curious explorers.
3. Introduce yourself, connect with others, and decide as a group where to go.
When & where?
• Day: every Sunday
• Time: 4:00 PM
• Location: in front of the Albatross Fountain
Hostless: I am setting up the event for you all to meet, but I won't be there myself this time :)
