After I followed my wife to Johannesburg, InterNations and its expat circles helped me find free-lance work with South African clients.

Hello to all Americans in Johannesburg! Are you interested in getting to know fellow expats in Johannesburg?

Colloquially referred to as “Joburg” or “Jozi”, Johannesburg can be a great place for expats, especially with the InterNations community helping you to make the most of your experience!
Do you want to continue with your hobbies — or discover new ones — while living in Johannesburg? There’s a variety of InterNations Groups you can join, including everything from sightseeing to hiking. These are run by dedicated Consuls with at least one activity each month, such as dinners in Johannesburg’s finest restaurants or outings with other expats to explore all that the economic powerhouse has to offer, from the Lion Park, where you might even get to pet a cub, to the Apartheid Museum, a very moving and informative trip through South Africa’s turbulent past, and much more.
