Moving a new city can be a very daunting task for many people. Whether you come by yourself, or with friends, it’s important to get out and interact. This comes naturally to some, but for others they may need to find new friends through activities or formal networking events.

We hope to offer lots of networking opportunities to newcomers by setting up a monthly meet up. We have also listed some other useful sites below:

MeetUp.com

Very popular amongst newcomers to Vancouver, this organization allows people to meet like-minded people across a range of activities from hiking, photography, sports, etc.
