Welcome to PT
What kind of profession are you in? I can’t speak highly enough of IH for deepening connections, and I save my precious for difficult clients. Not used it socially as yet, as I have only got the togo’s and am waiting for a reup and the price to drop before grabbing a 30ml.
The guys have given you some solid suggestions for social events ( I think that’s what you meant by casual lounge?) Try sweet spot testing How to find your sweet spot... and go from there. And if you can start a journal and keep us posted of your adventures, that would be cool
