🌆 The scene in Dhaka
Dhaka draws NGO workers, diplomats, entrepreneurs, and students from across Bangladesh and beyond, all navigating one of the world's most energetic and fast-moving cities. The expat community is small but active, while locals are genuinely curious and welcoming toward newcomers. There's a real mix of people here — you just have to know where to find them.
🤝 How people usually meet
Making friends in Dhaka often starts with expat Facebook groups like Internations Dhaka, language exchange meetups at local cafés, or hobby clubs tied to photography, running, or cricket. These are decent starting points, but they tend to stay surface-level — a lot of small talk, a few exchanged numbers, and not much that actually sticks.
💬 Where real conversation happens
Playing Makuma cuts through the noise by replacing awkward introductions with guided conversations built around questions that actually go somewhere. The conversation games are designed to create genuine connection fast, which makes it a great fit for introverts and a refreshing alternative to dating apps. A Makuma session is simply a better way to meet people you'll actually want to see again.
