Your lot, monthly,
and familiarity
without the plane ride.
If you've made it
this far, let's have
a proper chat.
You probably saw a post or got a DM. Quick version of what we're building, and why.

Andrew. Kiwi. Observer.
Grew up on a farm outside Cambridge in the Waikato. Spent time in Auckland, then seven years in Brisbane. Settled in Dallas six years ago. So no — not British. But six years here listening to actual Brits has been an education.
Blighty Social started as Franzus for my own lot — Kiwis and Aussies. Then the British applications started coming in. Same need, different vocabulary. So we built one for yours.
You can build a full life in this country and still notice something's off. It's not loneliness — they've got plenty of people. It's that Americans just don't get "can't be arsed." And explaining jokes kills a good story.
The big corporate networking nights are empty. The once-a-year gatherings are too far apart. Neither does the job.
It's curated like you'd curate a dinner party at your own house — because that's basically what it is. We find the restaurant. We mix the table. You show up and enjoy.
