Oh as for activities, private parties are the best, you can host some yourself but make sure the first one is a banger and many people come so the next one will be Mich easier.
To deepen it once you know some people board game evenings, etc.
If you have children go to the playground with them, there are many other moms and dads who are desperate to talk to adults every once in a while. Invite them over to your house as a family.
If you have a boy/girlfriend in the new country, make friends with their friends and friends of friends and family members.
Language learning course will give you contact with other foreigners, some of them are probably cool.
Thanks for the detailed answer! That's honestly some of the best advice I've gotten on the subject. I'll definitely be saving this comment!
