Life certainly has a way of taking us to interesting places. My journey started at the age of 18 when I first made the big move from Rochester, NY to Tampa, FL for college. It was my first time living in a new city and I quickly realized I didn't know anyone. Luckily living on a college campus helps!

 

​Fast-forward to graduation and I've spend the following 16 years living in various cities/countries around the world. I taught English in Sendai, Japan, had a brief stint in London, worked in IT for five years in San Francisco and spent another three specializing in IT based out of Tokyo, Japan. ​

 

Unfortunately, all the moving comes at a price. Every few years I'm painfully separated from friends and forced to start from scratch. It sucks. ​The more I age, the more responsibilities I seem to accumulate resulting in less free time available. From my experience, meeting a new friend is difficult. After a sports injury (torn achilles) joining a club was a no go, Meetups are usually filled with way too many people, plus awkward, and I generally can't think of another way to meet new friends in real life.​

 

I founded Project Man Cave out of a desire to meet likeminded friends in my area in a relaxed environment. My mission is to help all men, young and old, make new, meaningful friendships in real life while simultaneously increasing their overall happiness.
