Out of your comfort zone
Meeting new people and putting yourself out there is probably one of the hardest things to do. Some people find it easy peasy as they are outgoing and love meeting new people. On the other hand, there are people that move abroad that don't know how to make friends and go to events because they have had the same friends for as long as they can remember. It's also a lot harder when you move abroad because there might be a language barrier and people in different countries/cultures do things differently. I consider myself an outgoing person, but when it came to making friends here in Barcelona, I hadn't a notion where to start or what to do. I knew I would meet people through work but I find it important to also have mates outside of work. I was told about 2 apps that have helped me a lot over here. The first one is `Bumble´ . On this app, you can choose if your looking for dates, for people to ne twork with or friends to meet for a coffee or drink. It's like Tinder
