What we’re about
Otter (Lutrinae) - A cute and generally awesome animal that holds hands with other otters so they don’t drift apart. Has not been known for rude, abusive or exploitative behaviour towards other otters or for erecting sets or ridiculous social constructs preventing them from enjoying the little time the have on this planet. In spite of their awesomeness, however, some otters are distant cousins of the skunk.

Have you noticed something about most meetups? More often than not, you don’t actually manage to make any friends. Of course, it may be entirely your own fault, but very often, nobody is really at fault – you like the person, you talk to them, you reckon that you could be good friends, then you go home and suddenly… nothing happens.
So, by setting up this group, I was hoping to create a network of people open to making new friend. That was over four years ago. And look, it started to work! I’m proud to say that many great friendships have been formed through our little group.
We don’t just meet up to do stuff together – rather, we try to make some friends doing some stuff along the way (so that we can avoid awkward silences as much as possible :))
We don’t have any age restrictions – the age of our members ranges from 20 to 80. This group is certainly not for networking and it’s definitely not one of those groups “for professionals”. It’s really hard to describe an average Lutrinian, because we’re an extremely diverse bunch!

•OnlineMeaningful Connections in Small Groups (optional questions provided)
OnlinePLEASE NOTE: THIS EVENT IS ADVERTISED ON ANOTHER PAGE, TOO, THERE WILL BE MORE PEOPLE THERE.
Making friends can be hard even for the best of us. But this is what this group is all about! Join our online event for a laid-back session of small-group chats. Create meaningful relationships and spend two hours getting to know interesting folks from all walks of life.
This event is a straightforward way to connect on as deep a level as you like and to have some fascinating conversations (in fact, we excel at it! :)) Don't miss out on the chance to expand your social circle from the comfort of your screen.
During the first hour, everybody gets to ask and answer the same number of questions. And don't worry if you're shy or feel like you don't know what to say - optional questions will be provided to make sure everyone gets to speak. After that, you'll still stay in small groups, but the conversation will be more "free-flowing".

•OnlineChat & Chai - Make new friends on Zoom over a cup of tea :)
OnlineHey everyone,
Safe Harbour was created to offer a friendly virtual place for people like you or me to get together over a chat and become friends in this scary world of ours. This particular event will not be focussing on any specific topic. Rather, we just get together and have a chat just about anything - except religion and politics, of course! Imagine a group of friends sipping tea in a café - this is pretty much what it's going to be, except on Zoom :)
And naturally, we hope you stay for the quiz, too!
