lookingfor Sober Activities / Friends

Hi all

I’m getting sober in October for what may be a long time. I’m a creative and sports person who has had enough of drinking interfering with positive ways forward in both these areas. I’m a 36 year old male with two young daughters. I’m a musician, music teacher, tennis and running enthusiast and love to meet new people and engage in new experiences.
I’m originally from Australia so still finding my feet here in Zurich. I’m aware I’ll be losing a few friends that I’ve made due to not hanging in the pub watching football. Would love to find new connections and open up new doors.

If anyone’s in the same boat or open to meet let me know with a bit about yourself and how we could share an exchange.

Peace

Josh

hey, good luck Josh! you can do it and it really won't be as bad as it may seem. (i stopped drinking when i was 17 and never looked back.) :)

i am a different age / general interest group from you (i read dumb books, volunteer, and try to make the world a better place 🙃) - you can hmu if things get boring or unbearable.

You know, you can watch football in the pub without drinking alcohol, right?

Hallo Josh Das hört viel versprechend an. Ich sitze auch nicht gerne in Pub und finde Nüchtern sein eine Super Sache.
