Networking and Community: Ways Into Expat and Local Life

Ways into expat and local communities, from Nest's own team, so you are not starting cold in a new city.

Real people, not a call centreMeet Leslie and Claire and the rest of the team. A real person reads every networking & community request and gets back to you on the app you prefer, in English or Vietnamese.

How it works

  1. Tell us about your move

    Three short steps, about three minutes.

  2. We contact you to book a call

    A concierge contacts you, on the app you prefer, to find a time for a free 20-minute call.

  3. We build your relocation plan

    On the call we work out which services you need, in what order, and what each costs.

  4. We get started

    Your concierge takes you through the plan step by step. If you only need a home, a leasing agent looks after you from there.

The hardest part of a move often comes after the boxes are unpacked: knowing nobody. A few good introductions in the first weeks make a new city feel like home much sooner.

Nest's own team helps you find a way in, whether that is people in your line of work, other families, or local life beyond the expat world.

What to tell us

Tell us a little about yourself and we will suggest where to start.

  • What you do, and whether you want work connections, friends or both
  • Who is moving with you: a partner, children
  • What you enjoy: sport, food, culture, volunteering, learning Vietnamese

What it costs

Ask us. We will suggest where to start.
