Hey! I don’t know of good meet-ups, but I’m in London and would love to chat. Email in bio (happy to reach out to you myself if you put an email in your bio too).

Hey! Can you shoot me a message at [email protected]? Happy to give you a free subscription to play around more. We also just dropped the price down to $1.99 per month.

A podcast episode on precisely this phenomenon, titled "more from less": https://www.econtalk.org/andrew-mcafee-on-more-from-less/.
Want to note that a certain level of outgoingness is very beneficial when traveling solo. But that comes from self-appreciation. You want to be so comfortable by yourself that you're enjoying meeting new people.

Intensity is crucial for me too. I embark on an adventure, not just a sight-seeing exercise. And whatever happens, good or bad, is what I'm after.
