Internship in a new town, how do I make friends?
Hey guys so I was offered an internship for the rest of the summer. Now I'm gonna be in a different state and I virtually don't know anyone. On one hand I think this is a great opportunity to make me a more outgoing person however my problem is I don't know how to go about it. The first thing I've done so far is join a gym, my next move is to join the yoga classes at the gym. However after that I'm not really sure where to go. Any advice/ ideas?

Grant me the serenity to accept that some women are uninterested,
Courage to change the ones that are neutral,
And wisdom to know the difference.

Many places, depends on what kind of friends your looking for, social friends you can meet virtually anywhere.

Work is a great place to start since they are your colleagues. Go out with them to a bar after work, you'll meet people there aswell.

thanks for the advice Korg, I would but it I'm the only intern, and virtually all of my colleagues have kids so there not in the same mindset as I am. but they've been pretty helpful in terms of helping me find a social life where I'm at. @Zac thanks I actually didn't see this article earlier, it was pretty helpful.

really I want people to go clubbing with, I guess mainly because I can't find the time to hang out with ppl during the week. but I also want friends I can hangout with to do non drinking related stuff. but it's seven weeks I don't know how deep a friendship I can make in that amount of time.
