Hi

In Hurghada for at least 9 weeks.

Married to Egyptian but do not have any fluent English speaking friends here. Are there any social clubs or meeting places in Hurghada for expats and their families?

Hi Cesca

Did you manage to find any clubs for expats. I moved here in August 09 and haven't heard of any clubs for English speaking expats either. If you get any information, I would really like to hear about them too. Thanks a lot.

Sunflower/Cesca Why not start a group up yourself?

 

[Sunflower123]

I think this is a good idea. I will see if I get a reply from Cesca. Or maybe put an advert in a local paper. Thanks for the message.

Why not start off with a coffee morning in your house and see how it goes from there, if you get more and more people coming then perhaps it will be time to find a bigger venue

Hello

I was thinking about arranging a meet up somewhere "neutral" initially if there was some interest.

Hello

That sounds like a good idea. But I'm not sure how we would find other new mums etc. in Hurghada, unless we advertise in the local paper. What do you think??

Why not find a peditrian who has english speaking patients and put a notice up on his wall? Ask at the schools if you can put a notice up?
There is nothing worse than being alone in a foreign place so I hope you can find some "playmates"

I have had a search around and found that there is a nursery in Hurgada and possibly a sister on in el gouna, open from 12 miday-8pm apparantly there is an adult seating area so if that is true then you may meet people there.

 

[Sunflower123]

Thanks a lot. By any chance, do you remember the name of the nursery?? If not, I will do a search and try to find it. Many thanks.

Thank you - that's really helpful. I'll send them an email and see what happens.

Don't mean to sound negative, but many expats here like to meet up at pubs , not many with small babies.

There is nothing negative about meeting up in a pub.

I don't have a small baby I appear to have an 18 year old but I am sure I only gave birth to her 12 years ago!

Hi

What's the local paper called? I would like to pick it up and have a look at it.

Go into hotel newsagents you will find local papers that are produced in English and you might just bump into a friend.

Hi girls, I am a british woman living in Hurghada. I don't have kids but I would love to meet some other expats for socialising etc. I'm finding Hurghada a lonely existence at the moment! So please let me know if you set up a social group, I'd love to join.
