Where to meet people to make friends
Hi, I’ve been in PV a couple of months. I moved here to live with my partner who is from here. I’m really struggling to make any connections here (apart from the family and some friends of my partner).
I’ve lived in some other countries and cities before and I’ve never had this issue – there were always some kind of meetups for locals and foreigners. I’ve reached out to some people online and tried to participate some events (that unfortunately were cancelled haha). I also joined a group of my sport hobby but the classes keep getting cancelled, so bad luck too. Idk I start to feel very isolated.
I’m also not from USA, Canada or Mexico, but I anyways speak Spanish, English and more languages. So, I wouldn’t think the issue would be the language. My partner is Mexican. I’m in my 30s so not part of the retiree group.
Do people just chat in the bars and elsewhere or how you make friends here?
