CLICK HERE to see our main meetup events calendar[ http://www.socialfundation.com](http://www.socialfundation.com)
Whether you're new to the city or a lifelong Bostonian, this is a group for anyone who wants to explore and learn more about Boston.
I grew up in Massachusetts and I moved to Boston last year. I started this group to meet other people who want to explore the city for great restaurants, shows, exhibits, tours, etc.
There are no limits.
We can be on Newbury Street for Brunch one afternoon or hit a local dive bar in the South End later that evening.
I work in the hospitality (hotel) industry and I've learned so much about the Boston restaurant scene at work. Everyone is welcome to join.
If you're new to Boston this group is a great way to meet new people and experience everything Boston has to offer.

Live the adventure instead of only dreaming it!
- We like creating meetups so much we are taking it on the road! Come join us ! !Link visible for attendees
This event is to help us all plan ahead.
Overseas travel takes a lot of planning in advance. Flights, Time-off, dog sitters . . . Here are our Featured International/Overseas Events so you have the time to get things planned to be able to join.
We started simple and have only gotten better.
Our events are built from scratch and go direct. These are not just some package being re-sold. We create and lead our events. Our events are only posted to meetup. AND . . . they are REAL MEETUP EVENTS!!!
The beauty of meetup is you can come on your own and we help set up the share. We work together as a group and pool resources. So you can pay the lower double occupancy cost and not have a single penalty, unless you wish a solo room.
In other words . . . going as a meetup we get to save money AND increase our fun and adventure.
Come join us on an adventure. You have waited this long. Now is the time to finally create those memories instead of just dreaming of them.
This way you also create new friendships at the same time!!

To top this off...visit Portugal with its rich history, vibrant culture and breathtaking views!
This is just a little taste of what awaits us on this awesome culinary and cultural adventure!
Spain is truly a magical and fascinating country - full of history, culture and oh...so much good food and fun time!!! Portugal's history is intertwined with Spain's, so it makes perfect sense to combine these two destinations and be amazed at the similarities and the differences.

You can take our organized tours or do your own thing, cater to your special interests, visit other sites and locations in the cities, while still being guided and aided with arrangements.
