How do I meet people in Greece?
When we asked people living in Greece about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...
"Expats in Greece often join local clubs and activities such as language classes, sports teams, and cultural events. Expats can also meet people by attending local festivals, visiting museums, or exploring the local markets. Additionally, many expats join online forums and social media groups to connect with other expats living in Greece. Finally, expats can also meet people by attending local meetups, networking events, and social gatherings," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Greece.
"Thessaloniki, being a cultural city.. has many nationalities mixed together..
Much more so than when I first arrived in Greece..
There are many groups/organizations here in Thess.
I.W.O.G. International Women`s Organization of Greece e-mail: [email protected]
They meet on the 2nd Wednesday of every month (not in summer) for coffee, networking & social activities.. yearly membership 35 euros or guest fee 5 euros ( this pays for your tea/coffee , cake/snack at the meetings )there is also a raffle & 2nd hand book store, all money raised goes to local charities...
T.O.W.E.R. ( Thessaloniki Organization for Women Employment & Resources )
