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.

Shopping, Culture, and the Economy in Wroclaw
Wroclaw has an interesting history and has only been part of Poland since 1945. It is the largest city in western Poland and the European City of Culture in 2016. Indeed, culture lovers will not be disappointed with the Wroclaw opera house, and a huge selection of historic architecture to discover, including a 10th century cathedral and the 13th century market square. A huge list of museums, several shopping malls, sports, and a lively, famous nightclub scene ensure that your life in Wroclaw will never be dull. Wroclaw's economy is characterized by several large, international companies based in the city. In particular, Wroclaw is home to a number of hi-tech companies based in the Wroclaw technology park. In general, major industries include the manufacturing, chemicals, and electronics sectors. The pharmaceutical industry is also a major part of Wroclaw's economy, while the largest food service company in Poland also provides significant employment.
Our Events in Wroclaw Are One of the Best Ways to Meet Other Expats
InterNations is a great source of information, but you can also use your account to meet fellow expats in person. InterNations Official Events are regular opportunities for our members to meet, network, and have fun together with fellow global travelers hailing from all over the world. When you're ready to reach out and meet with those who share your interests, look at our InterNations Groups for ideas — galleries trips, concerts visits, and hiking excursions are some of the activities our groups join. With our invaluable resources online and plenty of social opportunities offline, InterNations is the perfect place to start building your new life in Wroclaw.
