A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, but we're not talking about the Stephen Sondheim musical.
It seems that many new members just can't seem to find their way to the individual national forums. There are forums for almost every nation on earth. There is a list of all the national forums (separated into geographical regions) at the bottom of the main Expat Forum page (see photo). Just scroll down the page and click on the name of the country of your choice and you will be automatically redirected to that nation's forum. It's really that simple.
If you have a question, or if you want information about a particular country then it is far better to navigate to that nation's forum and post there. You'll be dealing with people that acutally live there or have been there, so you will get much more relevant replies than by posting on a "generic" international forum.
Once you have navigated to the national forum of your choice you will notice that there is a flag icon in the green Expat-blog banner at the top of the page. Each national forum has 5 separate language specific versions (English, Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese). You may access any of those language specific forums by clicking on that flag icon. Out of consideration for all other members, please post ONLY in the language of that forum. Your cooperation and understanding will be greatly appreciated by everybody.
Cheers,
