Have you met anyone from Habbox in real life?

Where to begin!

Firstly, I wouldn't just class most of these as just 'meeting people from Habbox' I consider most of the people here my best friends, and people I've grown to love and trust and people who I've really enjoyed talking to and getting to know over the years! I feel extremely lucky to know some of these people and to have been given the chance to meet them, and they've all been just as lovely in the real world as they have on here, and I'm sure I'll be friends with some of them forever haha! I've never found it particularly easy to make friends due to being incredibly shy and due to anxiety etc, was bullied a lot etc and basically had no confidence what so ever. I wouldn't say I've ever really had any real friends around where I live, and thanks to Habbox a lot of this changed. I was able to become far more confident and believe in myself a little more, and managed to work up the courage to go on all these amazing wonderful adventures, which honestly left me feeling amazing and like a normal person! Thanks to Habbox I was able to find and make some absolutely amazing friends who I would literally do anything for, and I will be forever thankful for that!

I would do it in order, but I'll probably get mixed up, so this probably isnt in order!

Phil - The nicest guy I've ever met, known him for absolutely ages and think the world of him. Ireland has become my favourite country thanks to Phil, and I will be eternally grateful for how nice he's been to me! Some highlights include seeing his amazing shows, him giving me amazing tours of island, visiting loftus hall and other attractions, the whole windy night/tesco trolley/couldn't start his car night which was like something out of a surreal horror movie, pizzzza, Cardiff at 5am and millions more. Was so incredibly scared the first time I went over to Ireland, but that quickly disappeared thanks to how lovely Phil was. I'm sure I'll get to see Phil lots more in the future!

Mike - Some highlights include making him miss the end of les-miserables because i was scared of missing my last train home (and in the end it was cancelled anyway and had to get a taxi!), forgetting to buy him a Mcflurry and almost causing WW3, Hunting around York for a DVD, going Christmas shopping and him being slushy in Cardiff. Mike is such a lovely guy and I am really lucky to be his friend and he's helped me through so much! He is super lovely irl!

Kelly & Jake - These guys are fab, and it's been great getting to see them twice now when I've been over seeing Phil in Ireland. They've been lovely and let us have takeaway in their house, and Kelly is just incredibly funny its unreal! I love her accent so much haha.

Alex - First met Alex during the big Cardiff trip last year. He was exactly how I expected he would be, super funny, super lovely and just amazing all round. Had known him for ages and he had quickly become one of the best friends I've ever (and ever will) have so it was so exciting to meet him finally. Some highlights include him spending several hours in the lego store and getting all super excited when he finally got his lego membership card!, him doing headstands in the hotel room, walking with him through cardiff at like 3 in the morning to pick phil up from the bus station, like a mini adventure in itself!, his amazing organisation and fashion sense etc. Seeing someone you care about smile in the real world is seriously the best feeling ever, and so Alex being in his natural habitat (the lego store) always makes me feel super happy inside because I can feel he is happy too! Been lucky enough to meet him twice since then and he even came over to Ireland with me earlier this year which was super lovely too! I love how he worries about little things too much, and repeats himself lots, little traits like that which make him who he is- which is a super awesome friend and someone I love to bits! I'm sure I'll get to see him lots in the future!

Shoned - Another one of the original Cardiff Crew, and absolutely lovely! Had some really good laughs with her (and at her regarding burgers, wraps and lifts) and I am so glad I got to meet her and eat pizza with her at 5am! Shoned is just as lovely in the real world as on here and another one of ma bestest friends. She has the biggest heart and her love for owls is super tweet. She is super beautiful and super friendly too! Hopefully meeting her again this weekend wooo!

Elliot - Been up to see Elliot three times now, and each time has been super lovely (Apart from him making me try carrot omg). Played monopolyyyy which was super fun because I had always wanted to play monopoly with someone other than myself, and did lots of exploring

Went bowling where I thrasheddd him (as I thrash all Habbox members at bowling

). Elliot is really nice and I'm glad I got to meet him!

James - Went down to meet James last December and had a really lovely time shopping and eating sweets and cake nomnomnom! Christmas shopping is always super fun, but doing it with someone else is even better, and getting to look around a new city when its all Christmassy and decorated etc is always great! I thought James was really nice and it was lovely talking to him and doing lots of shopping! Really glad I got to meet him as he was a really good friend and a really lovely person.
