How do I meet people in Cartagena?

"Expats in Cartagena often join various clubs and activities to meet new people and immerse themselves in the local culture. These include language exchange groups, where they can practice their Spanish and help locals with English. They also participate in cooking classes to learn about traditional Colombian cuisine, or join dance classes to learn popular Latin dances like salsa and bachata. There are also several sports clubs and gyms in Cartagena that attract expats, such as yoga studios, CrossFit boxes, and soccer clubs. These provide a great opportunity to stay active and meet locals and other expats with similar interests. In addition to clubs and activities, expats often meet people through volunteering. There are numerous organizations in Cartagena that welcome the help of foreigners, from teaching English to helping with community development projects. This not only allows expats to give back to their new community, but also to form meaningful connections with locals. Networking events and social gatherings are another way for expats to meet people in Cartagena. These can range from professional networking events organized by local business associations, to casual meetups arranged by expat groups on social media. Finally, simply exploring the city and frequenting local cafes, markets, and festivals can lead to chance encounters and new friendships. Cartagena is known for its friendly and welcoming locals, so expats often find that striking up a conversation with a stranger can lead to a lasting connection," commented one expat who made the move to Cartagena, Colombia.
