Have you ever thought about all the amazing things you can do alone? It’s incredibly liberating, and it also opens up a world of possibilities and opportunities. Maybe you don’t have anyone interested in your plan, you want to meet new people, or you simply feel like trying something new. For all those reasons, there are plenty of options waiting for you.

From experiencing a whole new world with virtual reality to skydiving, to name a few. Being part of these types of events allows you to meet people with similar interests, expand your social circle, and share unique experiences. Doing it alone is an amazing plan and a different kind of experience that lets you connect with yourself in new ways and have a great time. Often, we hold back from doing things because we don’t have someone to go with. Well, that’s over. Here’s a list of amazing activities you can enjoy… just with yourself!

1. The Break Club

What if I told you that there’s a place where you can go to break things and release energy in a fun and unique way? Of course, you’d say, "I’m in!" right? Well, that place exists, and it’s called The Break Club. You enter a room, pick things to throw against the wall or smash, choose your weapon (a hammer, baseball bat, and many more), gear up for safety, select the playlist to set the mood, and go for it. You can break bottles, TVs, computers, keyboards, and a bunch of other things. You’ll leave feeling completely refreshed, light, and with an incredible vibe.

Fun fact: Everything you break is non-functional, and they work 100% with cooperatives and foundations.

Where: Moldes 673.

2. Flotario Zero Gravite

Looking for an activity to completely disconnect? We have the perfect place for you: Flotario Zero Gravite and its floatation therapy or sensory deprivation sessions. You’re probably wondering what we’re talking about. For one hour, you’ll lie in a capsule filled with water saturated with Epsom salt, allowing you to float effortlessly. You can choose between a closed or open capsule, depending on your preferences, but both provide the same experience. You lie down, select the sound you want to listen to, control the lights, and relax for 60 minutes. It’s a unique experience you have to try at least once.

Fun fact: Yes, it’s exactly what you’re thinking—it’s like the episode of The Simpsons where Lisa and Homer float in water beds.

Where: Bucarelli 1658.

3. Timeleft

Want to meet new people? Reserve your Wednesdays at 9 PM. Timeleft organizes weekly dinners for strangers who share similar interests and tastes.

Every Wednesday, dinners take place in different restaurants or bars, lasting 2 to 3 hours, followed by an after-party for those interested.

Fun fact: The concept started in Europe and now operates in 33 countries.

Where: It’s a surprise! Every week it’s a different location, and you’ll find out the day before.
