I will be remote working soon, which makes me scared but excited at the same time.

So I am 29m and I will be starting a remote job soon. Would you say I am excited? Yes! Would you say I am nervous? Yes!

I am excited because its a new opportunity to grow in my personal life and professional life and also start fresh! Also of course earning loads more money!

However, I am nervous and worried I will feel lonely and bored as I am working remotely. If you are doing this already, what have you done to combat this? Have you made friends / remote working colleagues online (I was told to do this and I am up for it)? Have you done anything throughout the day to combat loneliness in the day such as going out and meeting people who also remote work?

Is there a place where I can meet other online remote workers and discuss and build a community or even spark a friendship? This what worries me the most of being alone as my current place its hybrid and I get to see people in the office and chit and chat, have a walk etc. So yes please do advise!
