Since moving to Warsaw, I have been able to make some great friends and attend InterNations events with other expats who understand what it's like to be so far from home.
Welcome to the InterNations Expat Community Here in Krakow!
Cześć, and a warm welcome to the community of expats in Krakow. Specifically created to support expats, here you'll find a wealth of invaluable information, detailed guides and insider tips. Find answers to your questions such as "when should I apply for a visa?" and "how can I find the best healthcare?". Ask any other day to day questions in our forum, where expats already living in Krakow are happy to share their first-hand experience as you follow in their footsteps to build a new life in Krakow, from exploring the 5 acre Planty Park to sampling your first bowl of Flaki.

Nature and Business in Krakow
With over 40 parks and five large nature reserves, there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors in beautiful surroundings. However, when winter arrives, culture lovers will be at home in one of the many castles or museums, including the innovative Rynek underground exhibition with holograms, projectors and fog machines recreating the atmosphere of Krakow's medieval history. For lively nights out, you can find the thriving café scene as well as restaurants, pubs and clubs in Krakow's Old Town, where the numerous palaces, churches and theaters have rendered it a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The main industries in Krakow include the manufacturing of tobacco, steel and pharmaceuticals, the service sector and research into sustainable energy. Business, finance and software also play significant roles with banking headquarters and over 50 multinational companies in the city, including Google, IBM, and Aon Hewitt. Tourism is also a growing industry, but expats hoping to make a new career here will need an understanding of the language, as English is only spoken amongst younger citizens.
InterNations is the largest global network for expatriates, with communities in 420 cities around the world. Meet fellow global minds in your city of residence or get to know local expatriates before you're moving or traveling abroad and never feel like a stranger.

Whether they live in Jeddah or Khobar (Eastern Prov.), InterNations allows you to be close to them even if they are miles away.
