Have you ever welcomed a new neighbor to your neighborhood?

I'm too introverted. I just get up at 6 and shovel a path from their porch to their mailbox.

Yes. Though it’s unfortunately a dying practice that we should bring back. Community is so important.

What do you do to welcome the new folk?

Say hi, introduce myself, and let them know I’m there should they need anything.

No but during Covid I thought it would be important to improve relationships with neighbors so I shared some food with them. Surprisingly, they returned the favor. Sometimes you gotta just take the first step but they’ll look out for you after that.

Yeah, new fuckers come in all the time.

How do you welcome them

Last one was by letting them borrow my potato peeler

And you've been waiting for its return ever since? 🫣

Yes, i'm gonna extend "neighbor" to: "new people in my street". Somebody collects a few euros and we buy some flowers or a plant.

If the new neighbor comes from a womb we make a sign and decorate the garden, also collect euros and buy a toy.

I have. Sadly in my current neighborhood. I actually hardly know my neighbors despite my efforts to be friendly.

I’m about to be somebody’s new neighbor 😧

I am the new neighbor rn. 1 house brought baked goods so far.
