5 Tips for Your First Munch

Munches are clothed, public, low-pressure social meetups — usually at a restaurant or coffee shop — and they're the easiest way to meet the local community in person. 1) Show up as yourself, no gear required. 2) It's okay to just listen at first. 3) Ask the organizer if you're unsure about etiquette. 4) Exchange socials, not personal details, until you're comfortable. 5) Leave whenever you want — there's no obligation to stay the whole time. Check the Locations directory for a munch near you, or post in the Munch Meetups Nationwide group if you don't see one yet.
