Such a\u00a0 job can help you meet the locals and other expats. The office, shop, or even a bar may introduce many new faces into your life. You might like working at a caf\u00e9, or restaurant, or even at a bar. If you are not on a work visa, you can get involved with volunteering opportunities with some local NGOs. This is another great way to build an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indianeagle.com\/traveldiary\/expat-network-in-usa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">expat network<\/a> while getting to know the people around.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Live_with_Roommates_or_in_Shared_Housing\"><\/span><b>Live with Roommates or in Shared Housing<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are a student or working professional staying alone, it might limit your chances of meeting people. Sharing a house or flat with housemates, on the other hand, provides a very natural way of coming into routine contact with others. Again, hostels, Couchsurfing, and homestays are great avenues for making friends abroad as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Say_Yes_to_Social_Invitations\"><\/span><b>Say Yes to Social Invitations\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This might be a little challenging initially, especially if you don&#8217;t have any acquaintances there, but just stepping out could lead to the most wonderful experiences.

It gets easier as you start being more open.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Take_Part_in_Clubs_Sports_Teams_or_Volunteer\"><\/span><b>Take Part in Clubs, Sports Teams, or Volunteer\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Taking part in a community activity makes it very easy to meet locals. Great opportunities to make friends are provided by sports teams and other organizations like hobby clubs or volunteer programs. Not that one has to take a sports interest, but maybe there is a fan club or some cause that you might care about.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are some of the top tips which help you build an expat network in a foreign country. Through work, language lessons, social applications, or local meetings, there are so many different opportunities to come across the path of people and create bonds that will last a lifetime. Being inter-relational by these expat groups, going to their social events, and saying yes to all new opportunities will also make you feel at ease.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are visiting the USA, check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indianeagle.com\/flights\/deals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Indian Eagle deals<\/a> to start your journey with great savings.

Many locals appreciate the effort and will help you build an expat network.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>How can I make friends at work?<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try to engage with your colleagues, join work social events, and be open to lunch or coffee invitations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What if I feel shy or nervous about meeting new people?<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start small!
