What we’re about
Localish Connections is for expats, newcomers, and internationally minded locals in Melbourne. We’re building real connections, exploring the city together, and creating a community where you can show up as yourself.
Why join?
- Make friends beyond the surface chat.
- Boost your confidence, practice social ease, try new experiences.
- Shared adventures, from coffee catch-ups and potlucks to yoga, gigs, hikes, and new spots across the city.
Our vibe: no pressure, no forced networking. Just open-minded people, shared experiences, and a bit of playfulness.
If you ever thought, “I love this city but I wish it felt more like mine,” this group is for you.
