InterNations, a “trusted network dedicated to internationally minded people living abroad”, kicked off the summer through their get-together on 27th May at Samovar Room, a vodka bar in Cabbagetown’s historic Winchester Hotel. An event that in the InterNations ambassadors’ (Anjali Benawra and Jennifer Kelly) words “was their most successful event” attracted close to fifty InterNations members on the sultry summer evening. For many members (like me), it was their first time attending an InterNations event. However, what started as an awkward “hi, hello” quickly turned into a roomful of people who were eager to move from group to group in their enthusiasm to meet new and like-minded people. Scheduled to end at 10:30, Samover Room saw many individuals lounging around with their drinks, reluctant to leave despite the next day being a work day. As for me, having met many interesting (and some uninteresting) people on the night, I am more than eager to attend their next event.
