Fellow French in Rwanda

Find tips and advice on Rwanda from French Expats

Of course, expat living in Rwanda is not just about shipping your belongings and filing in some bureaucratic papers. Regular socializing with fellow French is an essential part of expat life and becoming accustomed to the Rwandan way of life and mentality. InterNations helps you connect and meet up with other French in Rwanda, residing in Kigali, Butare, Gabiro and many other places throughout the country. Just take a look at our group of French in Kigali.

If you ever wish to have a chat in your French native language, discover where to shop for French food or discuss the FC Bordeaux's latest match, become a member of the Rwandan InterNations Community:

  • Look up our top quality network to get to know open-minded expats from France or French-speaking expatriates in Rwanda.
  • Obtain and share insider tips in our Rwanda Expat Forums – e.g. how to hire a French-speaking babysitter for your children or where to buy herbes de Provence and the best French vintage in Kigali.
  • Search the InterNations Expat Guide for Rwanda to get information on the local Institut Français or the nearest French consulate.

From the Great Lakes region of eastern-central Africa to the province of Kigali City, we’ll help you connect with supportive and friendly French expats in Rwanda.
