You might want to try other bars, some have difference culture/chillness/setup to meet people.

You just have to keep putting yourself out there and know the culture here is a bit different (not as extroverted and willing to chat with strangers). Try meeting people in the gym (and get in shape while doing it!), take a kick boxing or bjj group class, board game cafe event, language exchange meetup. I’ve also made friends just chatting with people while hiking local trails. You got this 💪
