Find People Who Share Your Passions

Aptly nicknamed the “Green City in the Sun”, Nairobi can be a great place for expats, especially with the InterNations community helping you to make the most of your experience!

Do you want to continue with your hobbies — or discover new ones — while living in Nairobi? There’s a variety of InterNations Groups you can join, including everything from sightseeing to hiking. These are run by dedicated Consuls with at least one activity each month, such as dinners in Nairobi’s finest restaurants or outings with other expats to explore all that the Kenyan capital has to offer, from Uhuru Gardens, built in remembrance of Kenya’s struggle for independence, to Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, which takes in elephant calves and rhinos orphaned by poaching, and much more.
