Meeting New Friends in Bahrain

Post new topic

VidoDido

Hi ... Just moved to Bahrain last week, and unfortunately I don't have any friends here and I found it difficult over the past two weeks to meet with new friends ... life is really boring over here if your life is just about going to work every day, or go to any club alone for a drink, or go for shopping.

If any one have an idea or recommendations it would be very much appreciated.

Have a lovely day everyone :)

Hi Vidodido and welcome to the forum !

Maybe you could tell us a little bit more about you !
Where are you from ? What is your job ? What are your hobbies or the things you like ?
If we get to know you a little bit more, it will be more easy to give you some ideas on how to make friends here.

Cheers

Olivier

Hi Oliver, Thank you very much for your post.

I'm Egyptian Civil Engineer ... Actually what I'm looking for is to participate in any of the social activities/gatherings and share views in various subjects and get to know new people, new cultures and new traditions. I have no idea whether there are such gatherings here!!!

The reason of my post was just to get some ideas on how to discover new activities in Bahrain.

Have a Good Day :)

Cheers
