Hello, I'm looking for expand my close friends circle with a platonic friend in or near London to do things with in London. For example, long walks together, cafe hopping, going to museums/galleries, arcades, eating out, shopping, cinema or going to heavy metal concerts 😅 There is always something interesting happening in London and I like experiencing it with friendly/ good company.

A little about me: INFJ, work full time (mostly from home) within an STEM career. Shy, introverted (unless I'm comfortable with you then I can be chatty and come off as an extrovert), empathetic and family orientated. I can be silly, cheeky and sassy at times too. Overall positive, good energy and vibe well with all types of personalities (just not so well in groups haha).

I'm in a long distance relationship, so I don't mind if you are single or in a relationship too. Most of my core friends are either married/ moved away or in relationships anyway hence also why I'm looking for someone local as I don't see my friends as often as I used to.

My interests and hobbies:

• Self care I like having lazy days to myself, which involves going to the spa/ gym, walks through Central London (Baker Street, Oxford Street, Regent Street etc) as I do like a bit of shopping/ retail therapy and window shopping.

• Foodie (I can cook south Asian dishes/curries and bake a mean vegan cinnamon bun but prefer eating out mostly at Turkish, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Chinese, Indian restaurants). I love street food markets and going to bakeries too.

• Cultured; at least that's what my colleagues and friends say because I like going to exhibitions, musuems, galleries, immersive experiences, theatre plays and musicals. I love learning new things and travelling when I can too.

• Binging Kdramas (Move to Heaven, Blood Hounds, Mouse, My Name, Beyond Evil, Stranger, Signal, Vincenzo, The Glory, Through the Darkness, Sweet Home etc)

• Video games (BG3, Ghost of Tshusima, God of War, EAFC, Horizon, Dishonored, Skyrim, Witcher 3, Call of Duty, Tom Raider, Batman, Pokémon Stardew Valley, ACNH etc)

• Music (generally listen to anything with a melodic beat or somewhat resonating lyrics). I have a couple of spare tickets to symphonic metal gigs over the next couple of weeks; anyone interested in coming along?

• Movies (Action, Martial Arts, Horror, True Crime, Drama, Eastern Asian, Sci-Fi, Thriller, Mystery, Disney, Studio Ghibli, Marvel/DC etc with my favourite being Psychological Thrillers)

• Anime (One Piece, Tokyo Ghoul, One Punch Man, Attack on Titan, Bleach, Code Geass, Death Note, Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen etc). I go to comic con twice a year, mainly for the merch.

If you have any similar interests or you think we could be potentially be good friends then please get in touch with a bit about you.

Toodles!
