I’m an American. I play soccer once a week with a mix of Americans and Immigrants. Recently I started meeting for coffee after with some of the guys. This was prompted by a Serbian, but in attendance regularly is a Hungarian, a Jamaican, and occasionally some Vietnamese guys. We call it the UN but more importantly, these guys know how to sit and talk. The regularity of it makes it more likely to continue.

It has done more for my mood in the past few months than anything else. Just sitting and talking and having coffee. As a group. Just men.
