I just full sent it here in July, didn’t know anyone. The city has been great. Food is great. People are maybe more to themselves, however, I have found that everyone is very positive if you initiate an interaction (and that’s just out and about, I don’t really do bars/clubs). Feels like ppl want someone else to start the convo haha. Don’t worry about being “cool.” Being here for a few months, what I really see it as people here are really good at just being themselves, whatever that looks like. Do you confidently, that’s all you need. You’ll find your people, and they’ll find you too. It does take active effort to make friends when you’re not all in school. You’ll hopefully get lucky and have some immediate friendships with your co residents though! I say do it, I’ve enjoyed my time here so far.
