A warm, caring community
The real challenge of expat life
You moved to the other side of the world. Your circle of friends didn't come with you.
Moving abroad as a family is the dream. But once you arrive, isolation sets in fast. Here's what most expat families go through in those first months.
The isolation of the early months
New country, new language, nothing familiar. Weekends feel long when you don't know a soul around you.
Kids with no friends
Your children left their friends behind. Finding playmates the same age, right in the neighborhood, often feels like an uphill battle.
The local tips you just can't find
Which English-speaking pediatrician? What activity for the little ones? The information that matters flows between families⦠if only you knew a few.
ExpatTribe is the village you've been missing.
A map of your neighborhood, the expat families around you, and a simple, friendly way to reach out. Like a warm-hearted neighbor introducing you to everyone the day you arrive.
What you can do
Everything to reconnect, quickly and with peace of mind
Not just another social network. A tool built for one thing: helping you rebuild a real community around your family.
Your neighborhood map
See the expat families settled near you at a glance. Your exact address is never shared, only an approximate area appears.
Family profiles
Kids' ages, languages spoken, shared interests: see at a glance the families you're likely to click with.
Like & match
Like a family? Give them a like. If it's mutual, it's a match, and the conversation can begin, no pressure.
Messaging
As soon as you match, the conversation opens up: a coffee, a playdate or a trip to the park comes together in a few messages.
20 languages
The app speaks your language: English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Ukrainian and more, 20 in all. And when a family writes in another one, machine translation helps you understand them.
Protecting your kids
Birth dates stay private. First name and age are only visible to families you've matched with. You stay in control.

βI arrived in Valencia without knowing a soul, and within a week I'd found two families a five-minute walk away. Our kids became inseparable.β
