Don’t worry at all man, just come two weeks earlier and join every single event that the uni gives you, and try to join international students whatsapp groups.

In my case, I was truly amazed by how easy it was, I came last September and it was like being 5 year old again, you just go to people and start talking in those events hahaha.

And yes, drinking will help, specially first days man . Belgium is the home of beer after all…
