25M looking to meet people IRL in London

Hi you all,

I am Simon, a 25yo med student from Austria currently in London for 2 months (until 29th Nov) because of an elective. Although being surrounded by people all day, I still feel kind of lonely here tbh. That's why I would love to meet new people to spend some time together and chat about anything really. I don't really enjoy the noisy and fast-paced life in big cities like London so I often tend to escape to parks in my freetime.

I am pretty much a sports/nature person and am into hiking, trailrunning, rock climbing as well as all sorts of wintersports. As you might imagine, most of my hobbies are not an option here, so I have to stick to running atm☺️

I also like reading, watching films, cooking and playing boardgames. Moreover, I also got into anime crotcheting recently, which I enjoyed but I did not bring my equipment to London.

I am not looking for a whole group of people just some good old 1:1 conversations about anything really. Ideally some, where neither of us feels the need to find an excuse to escape from it and where pauses actually feel easy, not awkward😉

I am also open to exploring the city a bit more, like visiting museums, grabbing some lunch/dinner/coffee together or exploring the night life here.

So basically just hit me up if you are in a similar position or just want to get to know and spend some time with new people.

Looking forward to meeting you soon!
