Suggestions on how to meet people/make friends in Kochi?

hiya, so i’ve (24f) just come back to kochi after spending a few years studying/working out of the country. unfortunately i don’t seem to have any of my school friends in the city anymore, and pretty much all my neighbours just seem to have kids who all look 12 years old 🥲 i was just curious if there’s any places around here where i’m likely to meet any new people/potential friends? i’m just on a job hunt at the moment so anywhere i can sit with my laptop for a couple hours would be preferred, like a cafe of sorts? i’ve heard about some ig pages that promote events happening around kochi - which frankly, i very much would love to go!! but i’d rather have some friends to go with rather than be by myself 😭 sorry if i’m being too particular (tbf i have no idea what i’m looking for cause the city has changed so much from when i was last here) but it’d be great if someone could help out! x
