What we’re about
Welcome to the ground floor of this new endeavor. My name is Cesar and after the pandemic I realized that I wanted more connection in my life. I took the first step and moved to Boston. I have made some incredible connections so far and I want to create a space that gives me and anyone willing to try to
Meet new people
Play outside your normal box.
Practice self-expression.
Explore Boston and it surroundings
Connect with others.
Get new stories and experiences.
On this meetup my goal is to host events to go to new restaurants, night markets, escape rooms, movie nights, board games, museums, walks through the park. As a newbie in the city I'm always open for suggestions. I'm also looking for motivated people that want to organize events and help me grow this community. I hope to meet you soon.
A FEW RULES TO KEEP US ORGANIZED AND SAFE:
PICTURE POLICY:
We require that you have a photo (for security reasons) that is a current picture of yourself on your Meetup profile that clearly shows your face (without sunglasses), first name (please no one letter or number names). Anyone without a photo and name will not be allowed to attend events.
RSVP POLICY:
PLEASE RSVP with integrity as space is limited & it's not fair to others or the venue to do a last minute cancellation. Last minute cancellations (meaning after the event closes - time which can be seen on the app if set for the event) count as NO SHOWS & it's 3 strikes you're out of the group. Emergencies/illness happen--we get it--and it only takes a few seconds to change your RSVP from ATTENDING to NOT ATTENDING. This is also YOUR responsibility. And it's common courtesy.
WAITLISTS:
You are responsible for managing your own RSVP when on a WAITLIST. IF you stay on a WAITLIST, you could move to the going list at any time. If you assume you will not get on the going list and make other plans, it is YOUR responsibility to update your RSVP to not going to avoid a no show or last minute cancellation. You have potentially taken a spot away from another member who would have loved to join the event.

- Assumption of Risk: You understand that certain activities may carry inherent risks, and by participating, you knowingly and voluntarily assume all such risks, both known and unknown.
