New members of the Burkina Faso forum, introduce yourselves here - 2025

Julien

Hi all,

Newbie on the Burkina Faso forum? Don't know how to start?

This thread is for you ;)

We invite you to introduce yourself on this topic, to share with us your expat story if you are already living in the country,
or to tell us more on your expat projects in Burkina Faso if you are planning to move there.

It will enable us to help you better but above all to wish you a warm welcome.

Welcome on board!

Hello, my name is Tailor.  I moved here to Burkina Faso July 18th and I hope to put my social work / social services and women and gender studies degree to good use here.  I moved here without knowing how to speak French, but I have A LOT of study materials. And I’m able to greet people pretty well until they go off scrip or I start panicking 😂 then I just start saying random French sentences and we all laugh… or they stare at me while my friend tells them I’m American 🤦ðŸ¾â€â™€ï¸

Hello Tailor,


Welcome to ½ûÂþÌìÌà 😊


Thanks for sharing your story. It sounds like you are diving in with a great sense of humour and an open heart.


Don’t worry, the French will come, especially with that kind of attitude! 😄


Looking forward to hearing more about your journey!


Cheers,


Cheryl
