Without experience of having lived abroad, I thought it would be hard to get to know other expats. But not with InterNations.

Tips and Advice on Australia from Your Fellow Sri Lankan Expats
Obviously, expat life in Australia goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow Sri Lankans is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the Australian mentality and way of life. Sri Lankans in Australia are a part of our community, calling cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow Sri Lankans in Canberra, for example.

When I first attended the Sydney Bar night I was really nervous. But everyone welcomed me and I quickly felt as part of the community.
