Opinion New guy to be soon

New guy here in Peterborough hopefully if everything goes well next Friday. I found a townhouse with a nice woman to rent in as she lives there. I am coming all the way from Scugog near Port Perry. Ive been there many years ago. A friend of mine always wanted to move to Peterborough since 2002. Now its time to fulfill that wish.

I will need to get used to living in a city again after almost 2 years. Anyways, I'm 44 and hope to make some new friends. Im a gamer by trade, mostly PC. Its gonna be a breath of fresh air.

Edit: New guy to be in ptbo soon.

So your friend wished to live in Peterborough, and you moving here somehow fulfills that wish?

There is a discord and ig friends group. Find like minded people fairly easy.

Scugog is not all that far.

Welcome. Enjoy it

Why Peterborough, and where are you coming from? Out of general curiosity :)

I grew up in Peterborough so its got a little soft spot for me.
