Gathering for drinks with friends has always been a popular social event, but what about getting together with complete strangers? In recent years, sites such as meetup.com have encouraged people to try new adventures, or even explore their current hobbies, but with people outside their circle of friends or acquaintances.
One University of Pennsylvania graduate decided to try this concept, but with a twist. He posted a generic invite for people to join him for tea, and was pleasantly surprised when he received numerous responses! Over the next few months, he spent 3 hours each night having tea with strangers in small, intimate groups.
If given the opportunity, would you be interested in meeting strangers for tea where you live?
