    I’ll kind of kick this off with a common answer. Activities that you enjoy doing and finding where people are that do them.

    Meaning, if you like to hike… check and see if there are any hiking areas, groups or meetups. Go check out the scene and see if you can strike up a conversation with someone.

    I think it would be difficult to just walk into a random situation and expect to make friends. Then again, I’ve never tried that so maybe it could work 🤷🙂

      Worked for mW through more than half a dozen schools growing up. I’d scan the lunch room. Plot down next to what appeared to be the cool kids. Talk my way in a little at a time. Learn some names. They get familiar seeing your face each day. Then your basically in.
