Keeping in touch with your South African compatriots is a big part of the expat experience and can help you understand the Ukrainian people and their culture better. With InterNations, meeting other South Africans in Ukraine is a breeze, no matter if you are in Lwow, Kyiv, Odessa or any other expat magnet across the country. Just take our network of South Africans in Kyiv, for example.

  • In our huge expat network, you can easily find like-minded expatriates from South Africa.
  • Our Ukraine 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 Kyiv...
  • The InterNations Places database for Ukraine helps you find institutions like the nearest South African embassy.

From the Crimean beach cities to the most Central European region in Western Ukraine, we’ll get you in touch with helpful and friendly South African expats in Ukraine.
