Moved from rural to Nairobi-hoping to meet a friend or 2

Welcome on Expat.com Robin

Why don't you organize an Expat.com meet-up in Nairobi . Just propose a convenient date and a proper location (it can be a food court, resto) and I am sure many members will respond positively. I think it can be a nice way of making friend & widen your social circle

Regards

Try nairobi expart group on fb they have meet ups/events on weekends and some week days!

Hi all,

Thank you for your suggestions! I signed up for the fb group and am awaiting to be 'accepted'. (sounds kind of exclusive?!)

do people make 'fake friends'(online friends) they never meet believing that they have become big only to see that it's the world that has become smaller. the old way is the best way.:-) am goin back to afro and belly bottoms...how did it work though. cheers my 'friends'

Nairobi Expat Social arrange lots of events in/around Nairobi plus weekends away.  They do like to ensure that you are 'genuine' - not someone looking for an expat 'meal ticket', for example.  It can take a bit of time for them to get back to you though.

how can i prove not to be  -using your words- a "meal ticket"? i actually don't need to go on the gateaways i just want to make friends putting it delicately widen my social circles. ALEX

Hi   girl.Add   me   to   your   friend   list!!!

Most of us are not "meal ticket" but some are but what sort of 'screening' does one have to go through to prove they are in for the friendship and fun?cultural exchange etc..?
I organise fun stuff for my friend and sometimes we just need a new face or two or even a bigger funner crowd...

Hi Robin,
please be in touch

Regards
