What's the right way of expressing a desire to meet with someone in the future on the multiple basis (unspecified number of times, but definitely more than once)?
- We should surely meet again and keep in contact.
→ This may mean that I want to meet only one more time and then just keep in contact.- We should surely be meeting again and keep in contact
→ This will probably mean the same thing as 1.- We should surely meet again — and not once — and keep in contact.
→ This may mean that I want to meet perhaps only two or three times and then just keep in contact.- We should surely meet again in the future on the regular basis and keep in contact.
→ This may mean that I almost require a certain level of frequency of future meetings, while I am a far cry from putting such a burden on the person.
So, what should I say here?

I think something like "we should keep in contact and perhaps meet up some more", as it's not necessarily upping the frequency as "on a regular basis" but it's keeping it short and by saying "some more" you're not putting a rough number on the frequency of future meetings; not putting "a burden" on the person but ensuring that you'd like to meet more than once. Also, by saying "perhaps" you're making the person more open to choice.
