WE ARE BACK.
A calm newcomer night to meet people, hear one real story, and start your Sydney chapter.
⭐ What Is Arrivals Sydney?
A small monthly newcomer night created to make Sydney feel less overwhelming and more welcoming.
Each session includes one short real-life story to spark conversation.
No lectures. No pressure.
Just real people sharing experiences and helping each other feel more at home in Sydney.
⭐ About Me
I came to Australia on a Working Holiday Visa from Germany, worked multiple jobs, and eventually became an Australian citizen.
I started Arrivals Sydney because I remember exactly how confusing those first months felt, and I wanted to create the kind of space I wish I had back then.
⭐ Agenda
6:00 PM → Arrive, grab a drink, say hi
6:30 PM → Guest story
6:45 PM onwards → Open social time: ask questions, meet people, connect
⭐ This Month's Guest
We have another insightful guest joining us to share a short real-life story about their Sydney journey, lessons learned, challenges faced, and what helped them build a life here.
As always, the goal isn't a lecture or presentation.
Just a genuine story that sparks conversation and helps newcomers connect.
A simple 10–15 minute story to open the night.
Guest details will be announced soon.
⭐ Arrival Bucket + Small Raffle
