Willkommen to all Germans in Chicago! Are you interested in getting to know fellow German expats in Chicago? Are you looking for advice from other Germans, e.g. in which bars in Chicago will Borussia Dortmund's upcoming match be broadcasted or where in town to shop for whole-grain bread and home-brewed beer?

You are cordially invited to take part in InterNations Chicago. Among the members of our international expat network, there is also a vibrant circle of German expats, coming from Saxony, Bavaria, Westphalia and all parts of Germany.
