When we asked people living in Chile about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...

"Finding other expats here in Santiago is not very difficult at all really. Just take a stroll down Isidora Goyenechea or El Bosque and you´ll feel as though you found a street somewhere in the U.S. On one side of Isidora you have Bennigan's and directly across from that you find Starbucks's, Ruby Tuesday's and Hooter's. If you walk down the street just a bit farther you will come across TGI Friday's as well. In any of these places (especially at Bennigan's and Starbucks) you will find PLENTY of expats. You can also find, in the same area on Roger de Flor, a place called Cafe Melba which is run by a woman from New Zealand and caters specifically to the expat, English-speaking community. Not too far from there is the NY Bagel. There is certainly no shortage of places in Santiago to find fellow expats," explained one expat living in Santiago, Chile.

"Expats in Chile often join clubs and activities such as language exchange groups, hiking clubs, and wine tasting clubs. Expats can also meet people by attending local events such as festivals, concerts, and art exhibitions. Additionally, many expats join online forums and social media groups to connect with other expats living in Chile. Finally, expats can meet people by simply exploring the local area and striking up conversations with locals," said another expat in Chile.
