Hello All,

So A few things about me...

I am Brinda, 30 years old, from Mumbai in India and have recently moved to Budapest alone for a 1 year job in marketing in a Pet food company.

Travelling, reading, movies, shopping, cooking are some of things i enjoy doing. I would really like to meet some new people and make new friends here...

Any recommendations on how i can meet other expats in the city? Please drop me a message...

Thank you in advance...

Welcome!

I'm sure you'll find lots of friends in Budapest! Especially with cooking :-)
There are meetups organized in this forum at times, just keep an eye out for the next one.

Plenty of us locals speak English too and would be interested to get to know you. You might have to slow down a bit when talking to people who never hear your accent before :-)

Also depending on you interest you can meet expats here:

melting pot - culture club
couchsurfing meetings - travelers - locals - expats meetings and events together
you can find many other different interest clubs like painting,theatre improvization, contemporary dance, public speaking,sport clubs,...
There are also organized events for expats like internations.org
