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

Being an expat in Yemen 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 Yemeni people and their culture better. With InterNations, meeting other South Africans in Yemen is a breeze, no matter if you are in Al Mukalla, Sana'a, Aden or any other expat magnet across the country. Just take our network of South Africans in Sana'a, 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 Yemen 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 Sana'a...
