A school, university, or student residence can give us a very much-needed sense of belonging to a larger group. These common institutions allow for people to meet, share memories, and build some amazing connections!

The old friends grow apart, move to different cities, or even start their own families... The question is how do you make new friends? In this episode, we decided to discuss the importance of staying open to building new connections and allowing new friendships to happen! We also shared our thoughts on different ways of meeting new people, keeping in touch with older friends, and prioritizing the quality of friendships over quantity. Please tune in & enjoy! Xoxo A&A
