WHAT TO BRING: We recommend bringing water, a hat and money/phone to pay for a drink if you would like one, or maybe breakfast after the walk.

This ‘Better with Friends’ morning is aimed at 35-55 year men and women who are looking to have FUN, meet new people and make genuine connections and friendships. Whether you find you have; outgrown old friendships, are new to Brisbane, are too introverted to meet new people unassisted, have no idea where to meet new friends, feel isolated after becoming a parent, or you just want to add some new friends to your social circle, this morning walk and talk will be perfect for you.

Ideally this event works best if you attend solo, as this will ensure you are open and fully present to the possibility of all the new friendships that are presented to you. However if you would like to attend with a friend, that is no problem.

Your host will be there to welcome you and settle your nerves as we assemble and get ready for the walk. We will walk at a leisurely pace along the designated path along the river, and your host will ensure there are plenty of reminders that it is time to swap and move onto a different person, so that you have the opportunity to talk to a lot of different people during the course of the morning. During the walk there will be time to talk and mingle with your fellow walkers, at a casual, relaxed pace.

We will aim to walk for approximately 1 - 1.5 hours and then if time permits, finish the morning with a chat over a coffee/tea or breakfast.

The event will officially end around 9am, however as we are in West End you may want to kick on at the Saturday Markets or at one of the nearby cafes, with your newfound besties.

*Please note any drinks/breakfast will need to be purchased at the participants cost.
