The Cape Town Expats Meetup Group
|
We'd like to meet up with other Expats in the Cape Town area - not just from the UK but people who have moved here from elsewhere as the difficulties and joys are going to be the same! Let's find out what we think about settling here, what we miss from our respective homes, what support we can offer each other or maybe just have a chat with people who share this life-changing experience. This is an international group so if you've moved to South Africa, then this is a group for you!
