The real challenge of moving abroad
Arriving is easy. Fitting in, much less so.
The sun, the paella, the flat in Ruzafa: the fun part, you've got it.
Then real everyday life kicks in. A paediatrician who speaks your language. A Wednesday activity for the kids. Families to share an after-school snack with. And there... you don't know anyone to ask.
The Facebook groups are overflowing, but the info gets lost, and everyone reposts the same question every week.
You end up feeling alone. Surrounded by people, but alone.
That's exactly why ExpatTribe exists.
The solution
2 things, not 15
Your village, on a map 🗺️
See the expat families near you: in Ruzafa, El Carmen, or your own neighbourhood. Each profile shows the essentials: the kids' ages, the languages spoken, the interests. A match? You chat and set up a first get-together.
Chat is free as soon as you match.
The good spots, finally searchable 🔎
A recommendations wiki kept by the families who live here, with smart search. No more reposting the same question: you search, you find, and you add your own favourites to help the next arrivals.
Already in the Valencia wiki
- Doctors and paediatricians who speak your language
- Schools and nurseries
- Kids' activities
- Admin paperwork (NIE, empadronamiento...)

The village needs you
A village isn't just newcomers. It's also those who already know the place and lend a hand.
Been an expat for years?
You know better than anyone how hard the first months are. Become a pillar: share your good spots, welcome the families landing here, pass on what you wish someone had told you when you arrived.
Are you a Valencian family?
Fancy meeting families from all over the world and showing them your city? Your favourites (the real market, the park to play in, the doctor you trust) are worth gold to those arriving. And your kids make friends from elsewhere without leaving home.
You too can become a Founding Family.
