Of course, expat living in Senegal is not just about shipping your belongings and filing in some bureaucratic papers. Regular socializing with fellow Swiss is an essential part of expat life and becoming accustomed to the Senegalese way of life and mentality. InterNations helps you connect and meet up with other Swiss in Senegal, residing in Dakar, Saint-Louis, Tambacounda and many other places throughout the country. Just take a look at our group of Swiss in Dakar.

If you ever wish to have a chat in your Swiss native language, discover where to shop for Swiss food or discuss the ZSC Lions' latest match, become a member of the Senegalese InterNations Community:

• Look up our top quality network to get to know open-minded expats from Switzerland or German or French-speaking expatriates in Senegal.
