#101 How to not feel lonely when you arrive somewhere new

from This Expat Life · host Amanda Maxime

In this episode, I’m answering a question I recently received while I was in Mexico City: how do you not feel lonely when you arrive somewhere new on your own? It’s such a real question - and if you’ve ever moved abroad, even temporarily, you’ve probably felt this too.I’ve experienced this many times myself, arriving in a new city without knowing anyone. And while I genuinely enjoy my own company, I also know that connection is essential for me to feel good and grounded. So in this episode, I’m sharing the three things I personally do every time I land somewhere new to meet people and build meaningful connections (well - tip #3 is dependent on something else 👀). Want to get more tips? Go to episode #1 for the full list of how to make friends and build a community abroad!Links & Resources: 📸 Connect on Instagram: @amandamaxime 💌 Share your reflections: [email protected] 🌐 Explore more: amandamaximecoaching.com
