🌐Make Friends Across the World (A Welcoming Space for All People) - 35 Cities
·OnlineOnline64 attendees from 35 groupsWelcome. This is a kind, positive place to meet people from all over the world.
This event is advertised in 35 cities worldwide, so you never know who you will meet.
Everyone is welcome here, no matter who you are or where you come from. Maybe you want to meet friends from different countries and cultures. Maybe you are shy or socially anxious and want a low-pressure way to connect. Maybe both.
You belong here either way.We give people two hours together to relax, connect, and remember a simple truth. We are all human.
You do not need to be good at small talk. You just need to show up. And we will be glad you did.The first hour: the main room
We play a simple Table Topics game. It is an easy, fun way to practice speaking with an encouraging group.
This hour leans toward our shy and socially anxious members, so the pace is gentle and nobody is put on the spot. Every voice is welcome.Anytime: breakout rooms
We keep breakout rooms open the whole time. If the main activity feels like too much, or you just want to swap stories with people from around the world, you can slip into a smaller group and chat.
Both are great. You choose.Come as you are. Stay as long as you like. Leave with a friend or two.
A few house rules
Everyone is welcome. We keep this a safe, respectful space in line with Meetup's conduct policy (https://meetu.ps/3kzYxt).Because this space is also for people who are shy, socially anxious, or just looking for a low-pressure place to connect, please keep conversation welcoming and respectful.
One important note
We are a friendship and connection group, not a mental health support service. We are not trained for that and cannot provide it. If you are struggling, please reach out to a qualified professional or a local support line.We hope to see you there.
