Just moved here, looking for groups, events, people to meet, etc. I have pretty varied interests, if anything resonates with someone!

Looking for friendship

I moved to Orange County in March after living in Long Beach for a year. I moved here from Minnesota to escape the bad winters.

I work from home which is making it a little difficult to find natural ways to meet new people. My only relative here moved away this month, unfortunately.

I’m 32, male, single (divorced), no kids but I have a corgi, with some varied interests like:

- Cars, road tripping, canyon carving, and racing (I own a new to me Nissan 400Z which I might tinker with)

- Motorcycles (I ride a 22 Indian Chief , likewise might tinker with it)

- Tabletop Gaming (specifically wanting to learn 40K)

- Art, illustration, drawing (art meetups and/or drawing lessons or studio model practice)

- Music shows, primarily psychedelic rock, metal, doom

- Video games (RPGs, MMOs, shooters, racing)

- Travel

- Museums

- Comedy shows

I’m pretty bad at chatting up random folks I don’t know. I’m usually pretty quiet and reserved until I warm up to people, which makes it hard to make new friends that I don’t work with every day.

Promise I’m not a weirdo (the bad kind)!
