Learn about Expat Life in Eritrea

Much of Eritrea's rich architecture dates back to a bygone era when it was an Italian colony. Today, newcomers are enthralled by its art deco cinemas, pizzerias, bowling alleys, and boulevards. Following a long struggle to gain its independence, Eritrea now has a private sector-led, developing economy, comprising 60% services and 40% agriculture, non-manufacturing, forestry, industry, and fishing. Eritrea's varied landscape includes beautiful beaches, mountains, and valleys. The capital, Asmara, has boulevards lined with palm trees and pavement cafes, contrasting with the wilder Red Sea coast and bustling Medebar Market.
