   Who does not love food? We bet that everyone enjoys tasty food. You can choose this idea by inviting some food trucks to your apartment and letting them serve the food to the residents. First things first, you should ask permission from the landlord that you are going to invite some food trucks to your apartment. It could be a greater idea if the landlord can handle this task and inform all residents to come and enjoy the food trucks at the scheduled time, perhaps on weekends. This is great for you because besides can enjoy the food, you can also meet some other residents, mingle, and build bonds with them, and this can also open other networking opportunities. If possible, you can suggest the landlord do this food truck rally regularly, like once a month or more depending on the apartment’s policy.
   
   
   
2. Host an Outdoor Movie Night Marathon
   You can host an outdoor movie night marathon in your apartment and invite residents to enjoy it. Make sure that you have got permission from the landlord, so it will not be any problems that occur after. Set a big screen using a white fabric or white canvas and prepare some surround sound systems to have a feeling of a real cinema. You can start playing a movie for kids first, then as it gets darker, you can have romantic, thriller, or horror movies to spice up the atmosphere. Prepare some food to enjoy, for instance, popcorn, sweets, hotdogs, chips, or other foods. Or you can have a potluck or even invite some food trucks. To light up the ambiance, you can make a specific dress code for the participants, like wearing pajamas, jeans, a white t-shirt, or other ideas that are simple and easy to follow. To make it more comfortable, you can cover the ground with a fake grass carpet or plastic carpet, or a dark-color fabric, and add some pillows, bean bags, and blankets as it can get a bit chilly at night. An event like this will surely make some crowds and you can relax here.
