How to Build Your Network as an Expat | 5 Easy Ways to Meet People in a New City & Country

If you're an expat working or doing business abroad, it’s essential to build your a network. But how can you do that, as a newcomer? Building a network in a new city in a foreign country requires some effort, but it’s not difficult. Watch this video to find out how!
As a first step, it's always good to go through people you know, and build a network through your existing network, however small that network is in the beginning. You can even build a network through ONE person, which is what I did when I first moved to Italy in 2004.
Beyond personal connections, you can make friends and grow your network through websites and groups that help connect people with the local community. I will tell you about my personal favorites: the websites then I have been using for the last 15+ years of living in different countries around the world.
These are the web resources that I have found essential for meeting new people and building my network in each place. Hope you find it useful!
