scubaslocs Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Hi, myself and my partner moved to the Redlands area of Brisbane a year and a half ago from South Wales. We are enjoying the aussie lifestyle but are struggling to get a social circle of friends like we had back home. We are both in our mid to late 30's, Im a fitter and my partner is a dental assistant. No children as of yet. We would love to meet up with other couples or families in the area if anyone is interested and become a step closer to making some friends here.:smile: Carl and Amanda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon52 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Hi scubaslocs. To meet people here in the Redlands, you really need to get involved in various groups and activities. There are a number of running/walking groups - check the local paper and the library website, but off the top of my head there is a group that meets every Saturday in Thornlands and another that meets at Victoria Point, and numerous others. Also try Meetups on line - there are a number of groups that organise drinks and dinner get togethers locally for various age groups. It depends what your interest are. I am relatively new to this area and I've found that I've met a number of people at the local dog park. You would be surprised just how many people are in the same situation as you........you've just got to get out and join a number of groups until you find the one that is right for you - from there friendships grow!

scubaslocs Posted November 30, 2014 Author Share Posted November 30, 2014 Hi thanks for the reply and sorry for the delay in replying. We've met up with one couple so far and that's been really good and looking to arrange another soon so getting there slowly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
