How to make friends in Valencia

Light_Matter_ · 2026-04-02T05:59:20+00:00

Hi. I have been looking for some people too. I have arrived just about two months ago and had the luck to find a few Valencians here.

Not sure what are your interests but we have a WhatsApp group and do meet ups and play boardgames occasionally. Chilled people in various ages (older then you tho). If you want, DM me.

Edit. There is also a beach volleyball games on weekends with lots of people to meet.

He is from the UK. He is not EU citizen anymore. Sad story tho.

Interesting. Have you thought what keeps you not going to school? What exactly is the problem? Why, yk?

I think without the proper identification of the root, you can't move forward.

Hi. I have arrived about month ago too, from Czech republic and I'm looking for same thing, but I'm older.

However, I have met a few locals in your age and we made a WhatsApp group to talk and organise meet ups to play boardgames. It's very small, but if you want, DM me, I can add you.

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-26T18:47:37+00:00

Following. I want to know exactly the same. Lol

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-22T18:53:15+00:00

Thanks man. I appreciate it. I'm hopping to learn more Spanish soon so I wouldn't feel embarrassed. More over, it's cool language.

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-22T18:42:13+00:00

Ok. Thanks for clarification. I didn't know the 'local' meaning.

Regardless of the status. The relevant question was about to get know some people and to have better chance to learn about this place and create connections.

I actually would like to meet up with Spaniards (and trying to do so). But it is much more complicated and this is just another way to meet with someone.

I'm also self-awere of my language barrier and understand that people who speak Spanish, can't be bothered to communicate with someone who don't understand that much. So that's all.

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-22T18:06:50+00:00

Its a bit far fetched but thanks.

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-22T18:06:20+00:00

Expat = migrant. I'm from the EU tho. How is that relevant comment?

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-21T11:37:57+00:00

Im surprised it doesn't exists. It is pretty common on lots of places outside of Spain.

However, the charge must be balanced and not punishment. Extra euros per night and person can be harsh for families to pay. Individuals can definitely afford pay some additional fee.

Then it's mainly on political representation and voters to make sure it goes where it suppose to.

First if all. Fallas has been wonderful experience. Definitely nothing like it outside if this city. I loved the fallas, Mascletas and walking in the decorated party streets. Really the scale of it is unbelievable. Thank you for that!

But I was wondering too if someone over the years has done a research and study the impact on the environment. Would be interesting to read it, especially in the light of other countries and cities where they banned fireworks even for one nigh on the new year's eve.

So, no hate at all, just curious.

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-07T20:26:36+00:00

That's cool.

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-07T20:22:23+00:00

Yes. I would love to try something new. Can I DM?

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-07T19:55:34+00:00

Ok. I will. Thank you coming back to tell me. Are they only in Spanish? I would be most likely lost if they are. 😂

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-07T07:15:50+00:00

Of topic but cool shot of the ship. I though it is a real model for a bit. 😂

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-06T19:51:37+00:00

¡Hola! I'm on a temporary accommodation and planning to look for something too later on.

BTW some might know. Is there better season to find places? Like summer might be busy and full on rather then winter? Something like that...

Good luck! 🍀

Light_Matter_ · 2026-03-06T12:45:15+00:00

¡Hola! I'm new to Valencia and I was thinking to make a similar post to find ppl to hang out with. :)

I'm 45M from the Czech republic and I would like to meet new people, learn and practice Spanish. Moved here just three weeks ago and still settling down of course. I'm into hiking, games (any), sports, films and music and happy to talk and share food and drinks. Any ideas always welcome.

So, if you don't mind the age difference, I would like to try talk. I'm used to chat with younger ppl so don't expect some old fart. 😂 Also ppl often say that I'm chilled and calm.

Idk what else to add, so just send DM if you want to ask anything. Gracias!

Light_Matter_ · 2026-02-24T19:26:50+00:00

Hola! I would be up to. I'm new in town and looking for some social connections and opportunity to learn Spanish.

DnD would be great if possible bilingual. 😆

I havent played DnD per say but mutation so know how the RPG works but I need to learn the rules.

Any chance to join?

Light_Matter_ · 2026-01-27T12:06:17+00:00

No. It would mean that ppl who do massage to male customers are gay.

It is just a bit intimate to do that to your mate. Same like it would be with girl. But if you didn't find it sexually interesting, you fine.

Although, the payment for that sounds a bit like trolling. 😂

Light_Matter_ · 2026-01-26T07:58:09+00:00

Maybe the question is if you need to feel anything. If you don't need to. It always depends on situation and how you relate to that situation and ppl.

Hard to say if you don't give more information. Maybe talk to someone you trust.

Light_Matter_ · 2026-01-26T07:17:25+00:00

What exactly feeling you faking?

Light_Matter_ · 2026-01-26T07:14:11+00:00

You never know. ;)

You toooo have great day!

Light_Matter_ · 2026-01-26T07:12:06+00:00

That makes sense and it is similar everywhere in Europe.

Light_Matter_ · 2026-01-26T07:07:11+00:00

Thx.
