Learn What It's Like to Live in Bujumbura

Bujumbura, Burundi's capital and main port, is a lively little city where Europe and Africa unite. The influence of Belgian colonizers can be seen everywhere, from the city's regal architecture to its fine dining establishments. European culture is also fostered through the French Institute, which hosts regular events such as film showings, exhibitions, and food fairs. Expats will love Bujumbura's bustling Central Market, picturesque parks, and golden sand beaches. And for sports lovers, there are plenty of basketball courts, tennis courts, and swimming pools, as well as the Prince Louis Rwagasore Stadium. So whether you're a keen footballer or a foodie, Bujumbura is sure to impress.

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. InterNations makes it easy for you to stay in touch with your expat friends, both online and offline, so you can grow your network of friends and contacts from all over the world. Whether they live in Buenos Aires or Manila, InterNations allows you to be close to them even if they are miles away.

Become a Part of Our Network for Expats in Bujumbura

Our members understand just how daunting it can be to move to an entirely new country (or even continent), which is why they are always ready and willing to lend an ear and offer advice to anyone making the move. Whether you want more information on how to apply for a visa, or want to understand more about the Burundi way of life, our members know all the ins and outs. It's likely that you're also concerned about being isolated in Bujumbura, but that's where InterNations can help, too. Our members can create their own InterNations Groups, so that you can meet people with similar interests not just online, but also face-to-face.
