Check that out here http://www.wcnvienna.org/events_actual.php The average age of the group seems to be around 35ish. I hope you come to one of the meetings. The women are really great. Hi Sandra,

I'd be curious to know the names of the associations you joined - especially the English one since I don't speak very good German. Also, what sort of age group are the women in these groups? Thanks, Sandra Hi,

People tend to have friends that are similar to themselves. You will meet someone who you really like as a friend and that will open the doors to you meeting their friends and the friends of their friends... And you will find your own friend circle can increase quite rapidly from that one individual. Sometimes finding a group of new friends is as simple as running into just one right person.

That said, after school and uni., it's probably harder to make some really close friends. I wish they were a "make friends abroad for dummies" book!
