I recently moved to a new city and don’t know anybody here yet.

I want to try out some things and meet new people and avoid sitting at home all day (but sometimes is ok)

My ideas are hiking, volunteering and reading. What would you recommend? Any good ideas?

    I don’t know if anything like this exists near you, but I’ve heard of community centres/churches that organise something like a skills library/drop in, where people who have skills they can use to help others - people who can mend/fix/repair/adjust things (electronics, woodwork, clothing, cooking, software) and or also teach the basics to others so they can do more themselves, volunteer for a few hours a week and do just that for the community.

    I found this example (E: their FAQ) of a London “Repair café” where they do this kind of thing to give you an idea, and if there is nothing like that that exists near you, it would be a great project to try and start with your local community!
