InterNations - A Place for French in Hamburg

Bonjour to all French in Hamburg! Would you like to meet fellow French expats in Hamburg? Would you like to get insider suggestions from other French, e.g. where in Hamburg your hometown team’s next match is shown on TV or where to get foie gras?

We would like to invite you to become a member of InterNations Hamburg. As a member of InterNations, you will have access to an active group of French expats, hailing from Paris, Nice, Lyon and all regions of France.

Thanks to InterNations, I joined an after-work soccer team of other expatriates even before moving to Hamburg.

Frau Möller has been around since 35 years. They offer all kind of dishes – from salad over (organic) Bratkatoffeln (fried potatoes), Pasta dishes, casseroles, Labskaus (local dish), soups or burgers. The dishes are elegant, simple and full! A rare place of togetherness in the heart of St.Georg.

Why French expats move abroad (& how they like it)

Every year, we publish one of the biggest global surveys among expats — asking them about various aspects of their life, from work to leisure. Learn what motivated our French members to move abroad, what keeps them there, and what they struggle with or miss about home.

Pursue your hobbies with amazing new friends

Do you want to continue pursuing your hobbies — or discover new ones — while living abroad? You can do that easily in our InterNations Groups, which offer activities based on a wide range of interests. Groups are hosted by dedicated Consuls with at least one activity each month. They organize everything from dinners to sightseeing to board game nights. For example, you can enjoy nature with the Outdoors Group, share your love of music with the Jazz Group, or go on an adventure with the Boat Trips Group. There’s something for everyone!
