How do I meet people in Coimbra?
When we asked people living in Coimbra about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...
"Expats in Coimbra often join various clubs and activities to meet new people and immerse themselves in the local culture. These include language exchange groups, where they can practice Portuguese with locals and teach them their native language in return. They may also join sports clubs, such as football, tennis, or golf, which are popular activities in Portugal. Cultural clubs are another popular choice, offering opportunities to learn about Portuguese history, art, and cuisine. Expats may also participate in local festivals and events, which are a great way to meet locals and other expats alike. In addition to clubs and activities, expats often meet people through their work or studies. Coimbra is home to one of the oldest universities in the world, attracting students and academics from around the globe. Networking events and social gatherings organized by the university or local businesses can provide valuable opportunities to make connections. Volunteering is another way expats meet people in Coimbra. Many local charities and organizations welcome the help of foreigners, and this can be a rewarding way to give back to the community while making new friends. Finally, simply exploring the city and frequenting local cafes, markets, and parks can lead to casual encounters and conversations with locals and fellow expats. Coimbra is a friendly and welcoming city, and many expats find that they quickly feel at home," wrote a member who made the move to Coimbra, Portugal.
