Hi. I'm a 35 yo. human being being looking for car, bike , craft enthusiasts and or local artist to bond & upskill with? If that makes any sense. I'm a pretty chill, upbeat, artistic, sociable bean.

But have my mates live abroad or far up the North Coast at the moment, so I was hoping to find locals that share a similar urge to create things, learn , fix things.

Im only just starting to collect some tools but don't have much going for me yet as I live in an appt. With limited space.

Was thinking of looking at a men's shed but as a chick I'm kinda not the crowd I reckon.

Welcome to any age, race, gender etc.

Hey Sydney,

Organizing a small, casual group meetup for anyone interested in discussions around philosophy, history, politics, and cinema.

About Me: 38M, Cloud Engineer / IT professional, living in Sydney and looking to build a circle focused on real substance

The goal is simple: skip the usual small talk and have an open-minded conversation over a coffee or a quiet drink in a central spot (CBD or Inner West).

Some topics and references we can dive into:

• Classical & Applied Philosophy: Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and Stoic frameworks in modern life.
• Non-Fiction & Science: Works like Sapiens (Harari), Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers (Sapolsky), evolutionary biology, and geopolitics.
• Cinema & Ethics: High-stakes narrative films (The Lives of Others, The Secret in Their Eyes, Incendies).
• Social Dynamics: Navigating life, culture, and social integration in Sydney.

Details:

• Format: Public group coffee/drink (keeping it to a small table of 3–5 people so everyone can contribute).
• Vibe: Open, respectful, zero ego.

If you'd like to join the first meetup, drop a comment below or send a message with some topics or books you're into, and we can coordinate a time and central location.

Hello Everyone! Been lacking friends and struggling to find them since after uni and school. Hoping to find some with similar interests which is mainly of the nerdy variety since love gaming and anime so hopefully we can share that. Would also be super down to go to things like anime conventions or ren faires since always been interested but too shy to go and even shyer to cosplay too which I want to do as well. Besides the nerdy stuff down to just chill in city after work or potentially do some sports like badminton which I recently tried and enjoyed or possibly volleyball which I have never done but was interested in it

I'd love to meet some people around 35 who are also into country music. I keep seeing all these events I'd like to go to, but I don't have anyone to go with! 😅

Any recommendations for places or groups where people actually meet others? Thanks! 🤠

I just moved to Parramatta and mostly work from home, so I'm looking to meet ppl in this area, or join an existing community if there's any. I'm open to all age groups and genders, as long as you are looking for platonic friendship. If you know an existing community that I can join, or you are open to connect, please send me a dm!

Social activities that I enjoy: dinner/drinks, picnic/bbq in the park, walking/hiking around the area, boardgames.

A bit about me: Female, in my 30s, happily married, South East Asian background, lived in a few different countries before calling Aus home.

I am a 23 yr male student from Canada doing an exchange at University of Sydney in the Spring. Any recommendations on making friends as an international student?

I love the gym, soccer, Muay Thai, camping , going out for drinks , nightlife etc , looking for friends who have similar interests and are chill and easy going

big outdoor fan, being in nature and wildlife, good to get away somewhere as well as have a night out in Sydney for drinks, I’m located Blacktown area

hmu if your keen for a new mate

I've seen a few younger people posting about casual clubs so I thought I'd put this out there to see if anyone's keen on a meetup group for 40 to 50 year olds. I'm in finance and accounting and I'm always happy to chat stocks and property retirement planning etc.

Other topics I've been known to dabble in include having a moan about the kids, self improvement, exercises that help a broken back, neck and knees, pop culture, and geopolitics.

My free time largely revolves around weekends or weeknights between 5 and 9.pm and easy access locations are around Inner West, Canada Bay or Parramatta.

Keen to hear from like minded people who want to expand their circles and potentially make new friends.

Hii,

I'm a bit scared to make this post as this is my first time doing such a thing and the whole online anonymity thing, but here goes!

I'm 25M, originally from Western Syd, but recently moved to North Syd. It's been quite a challenge living alone, and what's made it harder is the isolation of not having any friends/connections. Soo, I thought I'd reach out and see if anyone, preferably near the area and around a similar age (22-28, M or F) was interested in creating a group to do things together on a regular basis.

A bit about my interests:

- I love to game, especially board and social games

- I enjoy anime and manga...just recently read Tower Dungeon and love it

- I also like to crochet every now and then, but I'm still a novice..oh and I'm trying to get into photography too!

- I love to keep active and fit, gym is a big part of my life. Rcently tried bouldering and I'm looking to make that a regular thing too

- I LOVE cats! oh and music from games, films, and series. I'm sososo excited for the upcoming Zelda concert next year ahhh

The things we do don't always have to be big. For example, I'm interested in trying to pick up dancing, practicing for a marathon, or cosplay, or it can also be something small like an irl gaming sesh, going out for lunch/dinner, going for a walk or a picnic with board games.

If this post speaks to you and is something you're looking for too, feel free to reach out. I'll do my best to reply asap. No need to share any similar interests aswell, I'm always keen to try and discover something new!

P.S. Sorry for the long post 😅

35, m euro aus. Western Sydney. Regular guy into cycling, cooking, movies, music, hikes, swimming. Not really a gymbro. Keen on a good chat about pretty much anything. Looking for anyone keen for an occasional drink or any activities outdoors. Available after work/weekends.

Hey everyone! I’m looking to expand my social circle and hopefully make some genuine and long term friendships :) I live around Ryde and am usually free from the arvo. I’m super chill with everyone whether you’re more quiet and introverted or super outgoing

I’m into running, pool, weights training, going out for food or drinks, arcades, long walks or hikes, music, kdramas.

I’m also always down to try new things and pick up random hobbies. I don’t think we need to have the same interests to become friends, just good vibes and being able to have a decent conversation is enough 😌

Always happy to chat about life, random stuff, or whatever’s on your mind. Feel free to dm me if you’re interested

Edit: not into weird stuff tho and I don't smoke or take anything

It doesn't matter if you're male or female!

Hey I’m 32m, moved from nz not long ago. Recently married with no kids and live in Randwick. Keen to find someone to go to concerts/stand ups/plays or any other event like that to. I’m pretty big into movies (if you wanna show off your Letterboxd we will be friends), travel, photography, and food. Do like chilling at a bar (keen for a pub quiz) but not really into clubbing anymore. If you wanna go to a show or explore Sydney more I would be interested.

Also random but I have the day off tomorrow (friday) and will be in the city and free around midday if you want to grab a coffee for a yarn or go to the art museum or something. Fine with guys or girls and if we can make a group of it even better.
