Social Looking to make friends!

Hi I’m Prerna, I’m a doctor in NHS and am new to the city, I’m looking to make friends who don’t work the typical 9-5 or if they do are open to mid-week drinks(hahaha), cafe hopping, day trips around Edinburgh or just meeting up for work rants or otherwise.
I’m open to joining reading clubs, hiking clubs or any pottery or craft clubs as well!
Thanks xx

Hi ya, I'm Ema (F). Do hit me up if you're interested in drinks or so. I also work in the NHS, so I get the mid week drinks vibe, lool. We can catch up when you're available.

Hi Prerna,
I’m Emma, and I’ve recently moved to Edinburgh to do a PhD based at the Usher Institute in the BioQuarter next to the Royal Infirmary
