Ouagadougou Expat Community for Ouagadougou Expats

Welcome to the Expatriates Ouagadougou Community!

Salut! We welcome you to our Ouagadougou expats community! The InterNations network aims to support you when moving to or settling in Ouagadougou: Connect with fellow expatriates in Ouagadougou, receive helpful advice and information about expat life in Burkina Faso and join our InterNations get-togethers to meet up with other expats from the international community in Ouagadougou.

A visit of our community for Expats in Frankfurt is recommend if other InterNations chapters across Africa are of interest for you. Or your next business trip takes you to our Expat in Doha chapter…

Enjoy your Ouagadougou Expat Experience

"Ouga", the administrative, cultural and economic centre of the nation, opens its intercultural doors to you, beginning with its attractions such as the Village Artisanale of Ouagadougou, an outdoor shopping mall of local arts and crafts,, the traditional celebration of Burkina Faso’s Proclamation of the Republic Day, to savoring a dish of riz gras. The InterNations network is a place made for the Ouagadougou expat and offers insider tips and opportunities to ensure that you can make the most of your life as an expat in Burkina Faso. Our members are looking forward to offer their advice and knowledge from experience when you come across one of the many questions about the life as an expatriate in Ouagadougou, from ʺCan someone recommend an easy recipe for tô or riz au gras to me?ʺ to ʺAre there any travel warnings for Burkina Faso?ʺ

Join our Expat Ouagadougou Network

Our members hail from Austria, Argentina, the USA, the Netherlands and nearly every other country from around the world, all of whom are living the expat life in Ouagadougou, just like you.
