Oh my goodness, it was so much fun chatting with all those strangers. You know what it's actually much easier than you think to approach a stranger and make a new friend. All you need to do is walk up introduce yourself, ask a
few questions about where they're from. Maybe what sports teams they like.
Before you know it, you've got a new friend. You've found new things in common. And you can just have a drink together. Enjoy yourself. It's that easy.
