Expats help one another in the Botswana Expat Forums

Our private network was created to give expats in Botswana a place to exchange tips, and find answers to expat questions such as, ʺWhat are the major health risks of staying in Botswana?ʺ or ʺHow do I greet strangers in the street -- polite and aloof, or warm and smiling?ʺ. Expat life in Botswana is at the very heart of our community - from seswaai to Botswana Day - and the InterNations members taking part in the expat forum Botswana have a place to connect with other expats and international minds to receive dependable and relevant advice. With the InterNations expat forum for Botswana, you can always find a fellow expat to help simplify your assignment overseas.

The Expat Forum Botswana helps you find your Answer: From health issues to cultural etiquette

When you need further information on expat issues like sports and leisure in Gaborone or travel and accommodation in Francistown, you should take a look at our Botswana Expat Guide, which is just another helpful resource that we offer in addition to the expat forums. Furthermore, you can discuss international topics in our World Forum, such as intercultural competence, tax equalization issues and various areas of interest for an expat. Of course, for help on all issues concerning the local expat life - from health issues to cultural etiquette – take advantage of the InterNations Botswana expat forums.
