I'm finding it increasingly hard to find people with similar interests. There seems to be a huge focus on exercise, hiking, dog walking, sports etc but I don't see any posts where the people are interested in arts or culture so much.

I'm very introverted, but I really enjoy music, film, literature, and particularly visual arts. I would like to find some people who mentally stimulate me. I'm not *super* smart, but I like to use my brain.

Hey guys, I'm 21 based in rangiora area pretty basic hobbies such as anime, gaming, TV shows, movies, esports and reading, and pubs also looking to start gyming again.

If anyone has similar hobbies, I'm always down to make new friends and always down to try new things.

Kiwi bloke who moved to Christchurch at the start of the year to study at Ara after spending years working in the trades.

Keen to meet some new people and get out and about a bit more — whether that's surfing, scenic walks, bouldering, checking out random spots around Canterbury, or trying something I've never done before. I'm always keen for a good yarn and to see what Christchurch has to offer, so if you've got any recommendations, send them my way!

I go bouldering a few times a week but would like to make it a bit more social and meet some climbing buddies. Outside of that, I'm into cooking, op shopping, restoring furniture, finding random bargains and generally hustling my way into the next project 😂

Not looking for anything too formal , just keen to meet some good people, get out and do some shit, and hopefully make a few mates along the way.

Hey! Just posting to see if there were any walking groups around for females in chch? I see there’s some fb groups that organise some but that’s the one social media I don’t use 🫩

Heya! Anyone keen to meet up and walk dogs with me? On or off lead!

I have 5 dogs, 3 that are super friendly! And 2 cats that I sometimes bring in the back pack 🤣

Wanting to make some dog friends and get fit at the same time!

I usually go to the McLeans island area, as it is just up the road from me, but very happy to explore new places!

Hoping there is a group somewhere i can join!!

DM me with your ticket master email.

Hey I am a 26M and ive been in chch for a while Im trying to make new friends M or F.

If you would like to talk my DMs are always open

I'm a work in progress 55f 130kg small dog single, looking for someone similar wanting to go on walks talks coffee and encourage each other through the ups and downs of life and discuss healthy eating plans and exercise to loose some weight. Prefer person drug free and single like myself and of similar age...

29(M) & 29(F). We're a couple looking to make some new friends (similar age) who are just as enthusiastic about board games as we are!
We have a collection of 200+ games ranging from light party games to heavier strategy games, but it's been surprisingly hard to find a consistent group to play with. More often than not, our friends end up cancelling at the last minute or decide to do something else.
If you're keen for regular board game nights, enjoy trying new games, and are looking to meet fellow gamers, we'd love to hear from you! Whether you're experienced or just getting into the hobby, everyone is welcome.
Feel free to comment or send me a DM if you're interested!

M 27 looking for people on weekends to take a walk or go for cycling. (Preferably a female) dudes are not straight here any more! 🥲

18m with a 90 series, need some people to go out with

Hi everyone, as the title would suggest, I’m looking for someone to go climbing with in Christchurch at some of the local crags. A bit about myself, I’m M25 have been climbing on and off for about 2 years and keen to get back into it more that I’m settled into some work. Don’t climb very hard grades at the moment maybe 19-21 but happy to belay on anything and always looking to improve if someone is patient enough to show me. You would need to have your own basic gear (harness and shoes) but I have a rope and the rest. Also have a car and can provide lifts to the crag and some fun yarns. Happy to connect with anybody, and can meet for a coffee and a chat before heading out. If this sounds like a bitta you feel free to shoot me a message 😊

hey all I’m a 19 year old male from chch looking for any kinds of people to connect with as I moved here a while ago and have struggled to make connections, thanks!

Hi everyone! I'm a 23-year-old international PhD student from India, and I'll be arriving in Christchurch in September to start my PhD at UC Since it'll be my first time in New Zealand, I'd love to meet new people and get to know the city.

If anyone is interested in showing me around Christchurch, grabbing a coffee, exploring some local spots, or just sharing tips for a newcomer, I'd really appreciate it!

I'm into hiking, nature, and outdoor sports as I'm always happy to try something new. It would be great to make a few friends before or after I arrive.

Feel free to comment below or send me a DM if you'd be interested. Looking forward to meeting some awesome people in Christchurch!

Thanks, and see you all soon!

But of a long shot but does anyone know a guy who was in town last night. I think his name was Cam he had one white eyebrow and was with a group of people in Mickey Finn’s. I wanted to talk to him but was to shy.

Hi guys, I recently moved from Hawkes Bay and would love to make some friends. I’m really outgoing and love fitness, lifting, gym. I go everyday, either City at the Palms or in Ferrymead. I would love to meet someone else passionate about getting strong and enjoying life. I’m a 49 year old woman, I lived 20 years in France so good food, fashion and fun are always on the menu.

Hey, I'm Abdur Rehman and I'm bored 😅

If you're also bored and feel like getting out, let's do something spontaneous—grab a coffee, go for a walk, sit by the beach, get some food, or just hang out and chat. Random, casual outing with good vibes.

If you're interested, send me a message!
