InterNations — A Community for American Expats in Edinburgh
Hello to all Americans in Edinburgh! Are you interested in getting to know fellow expats in Edinburgh? Looking for advice from other Americans, e.g. wondering if there are any bars in Edinburgh which will be showing your favorite baseball or American football team’s upcoming match or where to go in town for st￭ turkey?
