Expats currently in Conakry - meet up

Hello Smirfette.

Welcome to Expat.com!

This is a good idea! Do not hesitate to organize an Expat.com meet up.

Can you please give us a brief introduction so as to know you better?

Thank you,
Auré

Hi Auré,

It seems like from looking through the Guinea forums in Expat.com, there's not that much activity.  What's your take?

Anyways, I'd love to organize a meet up if there are people out there who'd be interested!  I'm Sarah, from the US.  I just moved to Conakry 3 days ago to work for an international humanitarian agency, working on health projects.  I'm liking Conakry so far!  Auré, where are you in the world?

Food 's good in there ;-)

Hello,
It's a really good idea, we are trying to organized a big meeting with all expat-blog member who living in Conakry, also can participate expatriates and friends.
It's in French section, here the link
https://www.expat.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=168576.
and we already start but we have not yet fixed on a specific date and exact place. there are several proposals, I am the organizer and I have a Canadian friend who is giving me a help. but I still want more volunteers.
Maybe if we do it together, the meeting will still be very beautiful with more colors.
If you are interested, send your contact in [email protected] and you can receive your access card for member.
Best regards

Devi - I just texted you - maybe we'll meet up sometime!

Krist29 - Sounds like a great idea.  How's the planning going?  I'll send you an email with my contact information.

Thanks,

Hi everyboy, I am Thibault, 23, French, I was in London last year then I will be working in Conakry in advisory/finance in Conakry from October. I would be glad to meet people to have fun during free times, have drinks, going to island the Week end or nightclubs. See you soon,Thibault.

Fatima - hope your arrival finds you dry & well, feel free to msg me.

Thibaut - it's great you'll work here in Oct - you'll be escaping the worst part of the rainy season

Hey,

I've been in Conakry for about 2 weeks and would be happy to meet up with other expats in the area.

Hey guys,

it looks like there is a whole new bunch of people in town... I just landed on Monday & was quite surprised about the heavy showers that night... hope these were the last ones

For good sports club, I heard about the Sporting or the Riviera.
You can even take Salsa classes in the Centre Culturel Franco-Guinéen.
Please don't hesitate to share any of your plans & let's meet up anytime when you guys are free... I will be getting a sim soon, so lets' just share contacts through Personnal Messages how about that ? (Could you send me yours in the meantime ? - I'll text you mine once my phone works).

- And yes food is excellent here but when it comes to the service, don't get your expectations to high

Georges

Great idea !!!

This weekend would be a great time for a meet and greet.  I could offer my house as a meeting point but it may be a bit far for many people. nongo, near President Condre s private residence.  It is not far from the american Embassy in the new trendy futuristic area of Conakry. 

Any ideas ?

Hi everyone,

I'm on my way to Conakry Jan 13, leaving Dubai and off to a new opportunity.  Hope to meet new friends and socialise with other Ex-pats, this forum seems a great idea.
