Get Tips and Info on Life in Peru from South African Expats

Being an expat in Peru means much more than packing your belongings and taking care of paperwork. Keeping in touch with your South African compatriots is a big part of the expat experience and can help you understand the Peruvian people and their culture better. With InterNations, meeting other South Africans in Peru is a breeze, no matter if you are in Iquitos, Lima, Arequipa or any other expat magnet across the country. Just take our network of South Africans in Lima, for example.

If you are in the mood to speak your mother tongue again, to learn about the best spots to shop for South African food, or to discuss your favorite sports team’s latest match, join the South African InterNations Community:

• In our huge expat network, you can easily find like-minded expatriates from South Africa.
• Our Peru Expat Forums are a great place to share experiences and advice – for example how to find a nanny speaking your language or where to get bobotie in Lima...
