Though one of the more intimate expat groups, this community really focuses on a key element of life – accommodation. The online face of a residential property company, it does afford expats a one stop shop to compare and contrast the available homes available to buy, or with landlords who like to rent to international tenants.

Born and raised in Athens, Greece, the wanderlust is strong in this polyglot – having lived, studied and worked in 8 countries he is currently making his home in the central cities of Slovakia.

Expats in Slovakia, Focus East
Facebook Group

Welcoming any expats living in Slovakia (as opposed to people pretending to and companies who just want to advertise on the friendly forum) this is a popular group of closely knit international citizens. Focusing on the east of the country (hence the group name) it is especially good for those commuting to Austria, Hungary and the Czech Republic for work – which is relatively common as they are only an hour or so away on the train network.

This isn’t an Instagram pastiche – all pastels and perfectly manicured images – but a blog and media platforms sharing William’s real experiences as a Dutch man living in Bratislava. With R-18 themes, thought-provoking subjects and a refreshing honesty, it makes for a fascinating insight to the darker side of life. Definitely one for book lovers.

Author and all round lovely fellow Luke is a travel writer by profession, having learned that a traditional 9-5 office job wasn’t something he wanted to spend his life doing. Having travelled around the world, he set up this blog to share the joys and hidden gems of Slovakia. Feeling that the country is sadly missed from the tourist radar, his social media accounts and blog are a wonderful resource for travellers and expats alike.

The Daily Slovak News
Facebook Group | Twitter

Though sadly no longer updating their Facebook page with all of the national events, there is a Facebook group and Twitter account where information is shared by the Daily Slovak News team – and it is an essential resource for English speaking expats. They report on a variety of topics and share news from sister companies across Central Europe.

We’re always on the lookout for more accounts to feature – if you write about living in Slovakia on social media, leave us a link in the comments and we’ll take a look!
