French in Istanbul – French Expats in Istanbul

InterNations - A Place for French in Istanbul

Bienvenue to all French in Istanbul! Are you interested in getting to know fellow French expats in Istanbul? Are you looking for advice from other French, e.g. in which bars in Istanbul will FC Bordeaux's upcoming match be broadcasted or where in town to shop for herbes de Provence and the best French vintage?

You are cordially invited to take part in InterNations Istanbul. Among the members of our international expat network, there is also a vibrant circle of French expats, coming from Normandy, Burgundy, Provence and all parts of France.

Meet fellow French in Istanbul at our Events

Our community in Istanbul is also very active offline. Our InterNations Ambassadors, Füsun Vollmuth and Metin Suerkan, organize regular events and various expat activities, e.g. a dinner in Istanbul’s hippest restaurant or a weekend break with other French expats to explore the heavily forested mountains near the Black Sea. These activities are a casual way to get to know expats from Turkey in Istanbul as well as French in Turkey nationwide. Interested? Simply become a member and we’ll be happy to welcome you among our French living in Istanbul!
