01 / THE FEELING

A new city feels better
with your people.

For the “I just moved here” days.
The “let’s try something new” nights.
And the friendships you didn’t see coming.

It all starts with showing up.
01

No plus-one needed.

Come on your own. Your host can help you settle in and meet someone new.

02

Be a little imperfect.

English, Japanese, Mandarin, Korean — a shared laugh needs no perfect translation.

03

Find your common ground.

Asian roots, life abroad, or a curiosity about other cultures. There’s plenty to talk about.

Let’s find your next hello
02 / SOMEWHERE NEAR YOU
