🧺 Picnic & New Friends in Kuala Lumpur [Build Your Circle Series]
Details
This meetup is for expats, digital nomads, locals, and people building a life in KL who want more than surface-level talk. The focus is simple: meeting new friends, spending quality time together, and building real connection through a curated and intentional social format.
Instead of a free-flow gathering, the format helps shape a more natural and engaging conversation from the start. It is designed for both introverts and extroverts, with a mix of guided interaction, playful elements, and more open social time as the evening goes on.

🙋 FAQ
Is this event for dating or professional networking?
Not primarily. The main focus is friendship and genuine connection. If something develops naturally between people — whether social, romantic, or professional — that’s up to them. But this is not a business-card or LinkedIn kind of event.
I’m more introverted, will this still suit me?
Yes. The format is intentionally designed to feel more comfortable and natural than a typical free-flow social, so you won’t just walk into the place and figure everything out on your own.
