    At the InterNations Events, I didn't only enjoy dancing the night away at some great venues, but I also got to know some great friends.

Start Your New Life in Valencia

The main industries in Valencia include tourism, construction, and manufacturing, but it is also worth noting that TEFL teachers are in demand. With one of the largest ports in Spain, importing and exporting are important employers, with food and beverages among the main exports. Manufacturing in Valencia focuses on chemicals, textiles, shipbuilding, and metallurgy. Expats hoping to work in Valencia will need a strong understanding of Spanish, and those who can also speak German will find more opportunities open to them. It is advisable to secure employment before entering Valencia to avoid the high unemployment rates. Culture lovers can explore the history and art of the many museums, and will surely not be able to resist the innovative and impressive City of Arts and Sciences. Made up of seven different buildings, this unique complex houses massive exhibitions including marine life, sculpture, opera and performing arts, plant life, and DNA. Sports fans also have a wide variety to choose from, including, football, basketball, rugby union, and soccer, or you can get involved with hiking, cycling climbing, and skiing facilities all within easy access of the city. With a long history, classical architecture, and many landmarks restored to encourage foreign visitors, expats will find it difficult to resist joining the groups of tourists to marvel at the beauty of Valencia.

InterNations is the largest global network for expatriates, with communities in 420 cities around the world. Meet fellow global minds in your city of residence or get to know local expatriates before you're moving or traveling abroad and never feel like a stranger. InterNations makes it easy for you to stay in touch with your expat friends, both online and offline, so you can grow your network of friends and contacts from all over the world. Whether they live in Dubai or Khobar (Eastern Prov.), InterNations allows you to be close to them even if they are miles away.

An important part of your relocation will be making new friends, so we organize regular get-togethers and InterNations Events for our expats to socialize and network in a secure environment.
