Join the Coffee With an Expat Community

Coffee With An Expat is a membership community for expat women.Ā This is not a networking group, a directory or a forum. It is a real, living community of women who are here to meet, support each other, and genuinely enjoy their time.Ā 

"In life, we often go through periods of transitions, questioning, life changes. In expatriation, the challenges of this period are the loneliness of the beginning, how to reinvent oneself, where to find the answers to one's questions, how to meet people who share one's interests... If these words resonate with you, I recommend you join CWAE, a group of inspiring women. We all have our own stories, our own life experiences, we come from different religions, different cultures. An extremely diverse mix that makes this group particularly rich!"

FLORENCE REISCH AUTHOR & EXPAT COACH

"The community Navine has created is different to many of the others whose events I've attended. Her events are truly inclusive - the age range of the attendees and nationalities is one of the broadest I've experienced. Also, pricing makes them super accessible. The topics for the events range from family and parental issues, to social media and branding, book clubs, exercise, food, festive events and in-depth round table discussions on topics like 'How to Make Friends' as an expat. The CWAE community has such depth, and range, it's rare to find. A true reflection of Navine."

ELA BARNETT PROPERTY INVESTMENT ADVISOR

"I was so lucky to discover Coffee with an Expat community after only one month in Dubai! I met amazing people who were struggling the same way: new country, new language, and being so far from family… I felt that I am not alone! Thank you Navine for making me feel so comfortable since the day 1. And this is why I decided to volunteer with this amazing community, making more people enjoying their expat journey."
