Embark on Your Life as an Expat in Bulgaria

The Balkan nation of Bulgaria is made up of a rich mix of historic Greek, Ottoman, Slavic, and Persian cultures, making it both traditional and diverse. Home to the Danube River, vast mountainous and forest-covered landscapes, and the Black Sea coastline, Bulgaria has much to see and explore. Its capital Sofia is filled with iconic religious art and architecture, and is located close to the popular ski mountain of Vitosha. Many expats working in Bulgaria feel like their salary is much higher than their usual income at home. Well-paid jobs in Bulgaria include IT specialists, visual artists and engineers with foreign languages, as well as in international sales. Sofia has the lowest unemployment rate in the country and booming industries in these fields.

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 Portugal or Germany, InterNations allows you to be close to them even if they are miles away.

Your Social Network for Expatriates in Bulgaria

As part of the InterNations network you can interact with other expats safely and securely both online and offline. All of our members have been approved by us, and are committed to a respectful exchange of ideas and opinions with people from all over the world. You can connect with other like-minded expats as soon as you arrive in Bulgaria. There are a number of exciting cultural and fun groups that you can join in Sofia; from the Photography Group to the Speak Russian Group, InterNations is a great way to meet new people and make new expat friends. Having a social life is extremely important, especially when you first relocate to another country. Other expats can not only help with advice and support for your trip, they can also be a lot of fun!
