How do I meet people in Leon?

When we asked people living in Leon about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded:

"To meet others , principally expatriates, go to the new Cafe La Rosita on the street that leads to the city cathedral and park, opposite the main office of Claro.com the most cheap cellular telephone corporation. Frequent the Cyber Internet places where foreign tourists congregate. Get as soon as possible a cell phone costing to start anywhere from 25 to 49 dollars. Sit on the park benches and start a chat in spanish with passers-by coming to sit down on the same park bench," said one expat in Leon .

"Leon is a great place for meeting people, whether you're looking for friends, colleagues or romantic partners. One of the best ways to meet people is to get involved in different activities and join a local club or organization that aligns with your interests. You can join a league, such as a sports team or outdoor event, or attend local classes to learn something new and meet other like-minded people. You could also join local groups on social media, attend social events such as bar crawls, music festivals, and art shows, or simply go to your favorite hangout spot and introduce yourself to someone new.
