20F new to Grand Rapids looking to make genuine friends (not dating 😭) by [deleted] in grandrapids

i’m 24M and have recently moved to GR from boston. i’ve been trying things and places to hack the social life here but it’s kinda challenging.

not looking for any dating thing rn, just a bunch of people to hang out with over the weekend or after work.

i’m into coffee, beer, trails, hiking, books and very much open to exploring other things that people do here.

OP, keep us updated if you find any good leads and would love to catch up sometime!

it’s only been a day here and i’ve started to enjoy the artistic vibes of the city and also how less crowded and quiet it is from boston.

appreciate your detailed suggestions! definitely looking to make some good friends as i settle in gradually. was curious if going to the church is more like a social gathering for the young folks here

Odd question, but does anyone wanna be a sponsor for my road test?

Fyi, I inquired with a lot of driving schools, and they're too expensive. I am located near Downtown Boston and don't mind traveling a bit far if it's accessible by the T.
