I wasn’t sure if it would feel forced, but it turned out to be one of the most genuine evenings I’ve had here. Great food, great energy, and conversations that went way beyond small talk. By the end, it felt like we’d known each other much longer than just a couple of hours. Ericeira Connect reminded me why I moved here: community, laughter, and meaningful connections.

What surprised me most was how natural it felt. Within minutes, I forgot we were ‘strangers.’ The mix of people was spot-on - diverse backgrounds, but somehow we all clicked. The questions on the table helped us go deeper, but the real magic was the openness and curiosity everyone brought. I left with two new friends I already plan to see again. Truly a gem in Ericeira.

I really enjoyed the Ericeira Connect dinner. I was new in town and it was a great way to meet like-minded people. I laughed a lot and had a great time. It was a truly meaningful evening! I would 100% recommend it to others.

As a five-year Ericeira local, Ericeira Connect was the perfect push to get me out of my usual social circle. The concept of a dinner with complete strangers is as challenging as it is refreshing, forcing you out of your comfort zone in the best way. It was a fantastic experience to connect with new, interesting people I’d never normally meet, and a great reminder of the vibrant community of new people that calls this town home.
