How do I meet people in Nicaragua?
When we asked people living in Nicaragua about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded:
"Expats in Nicaragua often join activity-based clubs such as hiking, golf, tennis and sailing. Additionally, there are social clubs for expats to meet and socialize such as Rotary or Lions Club. Other ways to meet people when living in Nicaragua can include attending festivals, getting involved in local charities, attending language meetups, and joining community sports teams. Attending events such as locally hosted dinners, art classes and other local social activities can also be a great way for expats to meet new people and form friendships," said one expat in Nicaragua.
"There are currently no clubs available although this is a small town and it won't take you long to meet all the expats and locals too. There are several restaurants that are frequented by the expats and word spreads REAL fast," remarked one member in San Juan del Sur.
