Staying social while physical distancing
Updated: Apr 7, 2020
I don’t know about you, but this physical distancing is tough for a social person. In a typical week, I’m normally out of the house 3 to 4 nights either out for dinner, seeing a show, going to a movie, having wine night, meeting up with a networking group, getting together to plan an event / bachelorette / shower / trip. Without all that interaction and time out of the house - This. Is. Tough. BUT just because we can’t physically be together, doesn't mean we can’t be social.
Here are a few free ideas to keep you going:
Have a Netflix party so you can watch your favourite shows with a group chat
Hold a wine night using Zoom. Keep your networking group going with Zoom as well!
Don’t cancel your lunch date, use an app like FaceTime, Houseparty, or JusTalk instead
Keep your poker night going with PokerStars Missing musical bingo at your local pub? Keep the fun going with BingoBaker
Start a friends / family game night with Pogo, they have Scrabble, Monopoly, and many others
Cards Against Humanity? You can play that and other virtual card games at playingcards.io
In the Play store or App store, type ‘games with friends’ for many other options!
