Well back in Cali i worked M-F 8-5 typical job and often went out to lunch with my coworkers and Sunday brunches with Mimosas. I often went up to LA to visit and hang out with friends in the area, or i would ride my Harley on the weekends with a group of riders or solo. Other times i would go to Laguna Beach and read a good book or do typical hang out stuff with the neighbors back home.
Where was it that you lived in Cali?
What was the reason for your move out to this area?
Thanks for writing!!!! |
You can do all of that here (just shift the days).
Thare are even Harley groups.
As others have said, there is little point is moving half way across the world only to mix with people just like you. Surely one of the reasons for travelling is to meet different people and broaden your horizons?
I have lived in Dubai for a number of years and my good friends number at least a dozen different nationalities, including Americans.
Incidentally, there must be some 30,000 Americans across the UAE, so you'll bump into some soon enough. Just because someone is from the same country as you, it doesn't mean you'll have anything in common though; especially from somewhere as large and diverse as the US.
Open your mind and you'll be fine.
BTW - I have spend some time in Orange County and really liked the area.
