      Hi!
      My name is Amelia. I’m 26, and have just moved to Dublin from Belgium to study a Master’s.
      I’m hoping to make some new friends, as I’ll be staying for at least a year. My hobbies include going for walks & hikes, eating good food, visiting museums and historic sites, going to concerts, movies, baking & calligraphy.
      If you’re interested in hanging out some time, please feel free to contact me!

      (I live in Dublin 2, and as I don’t have a car, I am somewhat limited as to how far I can go to meet up. Walking & public transportation are my only means of transportation.)

        Hi Amelia,

        My name is Adi, 25, working as an academic in south dublin and although im not new to town (been here 2 years), I am looking to make some new friends. I think we share similar interests: I love having good food, walking around and exploring different places, watching movies and concerts. I work in Dublin 4 and rely on public transportation. Ive been to Belgium a couple of times and I love it! Would be great to meet somewhere in the city centre. Cheers!

          Hi Amelia,

          I’m Laura, 24 y-o from Canada and have just moved to Dublin for work today, staying also for at least a year. I’m currently staying in Dublin 2!

          All your interests are similar to mine, i would love to go hiking or just meet for coffee and walk around the city. I’m starting work only on the 11th, so I’m pretty free all week! Contact me whenever 🙂

          Cheers

              Hi Laura!
              I just got back from a visit to Belfast, and saw your reponse, as a lovely surprise.
              I’d be delighted to meet up this week. My classes only start the 18th, so I’ve also got lots of time at the moment. Would you have time to meet this evening or tomorrow, perhaps? Let me know 🙂

              Hi Adi!
              Thanks for your reply!
              I’m happy to meet up some time.
              As you’re currently the busy one with work (my classes don’t start until the 18th) I’m happy to adjust to your schedule. Let me know when you might have some time! 🙂

              Perhaps if we can find a moment that suits all of us, we could go for drinks together?

                  Hi Amelia,

                  Thanks for the reply, I have a normal schedule, work 9-5 on weekdays and am generally free in the evenings. We could meet this evening if it suits you. Let me know 🙂

                  Thanks,
                  Adi

                      Sounds good.
                      It’s probably easiest if you add me on fb to discuss practicalities.

                        Thats great! I have sent you a request.

                        Thanks,
                        Adi

                    Hi Amelia,

                    My name is Ketan. I just moved to Dublin from India. Ive come here for work and will be staying here permanently. Looking to make some nice friends and have a social life, pretty much.

                    My interests seem like they align with yours. I love watching tv shows, movies. Enjoy listening to music. Beginning to like walks since everybody walks here in Dublin. I enjoy concerts as well.. I saw that there are some really cool bands coming to Dublin in the months to come.

                    May be we all on this thread can catch up for coffee sometime. I currently stay in Dublin4. I’m comfortable with the traveling in buses. (Thanks to the moovit app)

                    Hope to catch you guys soon!

                        Hi Ketan,
                        I’ll be sure to let you know when we next plan to meetup to visit someplace.
