Moving abroad is hard.
Finding your people shouldn't be.

Namaste Community is the hyperlocal network for expats — the trusted plumber, the second-hand sofa, the Diwali party down the road, and the answer to the question you’ve been too embarrassed to ask at work.

Six ways it makes settling in easier

Everything below is in the app today — no waitlists, no “coming soon”.

Yellow Pages

A directory of businesses that actually understand what you need.

  • Filter by category, city and language spoken
  • Community reviews and ratings you can trust
  • Contact details unlocked without giving away your data

Ask

The question you are too embarrassed to ask at work, answered by people who asked it first.

  • Ask anonymously with a persistent pseudonym
  • Answers ranked by community votes
  • Attach a poll and let the community decide

Marketplace

Buy, sell and rent inside a community you can actually place.

  • Furniture, cars, electronics — or a room to rent
  • Separate sale and rental listings with the right fields
  • Message sellers directly in the app

Events

Diwali, Holi, cricket screenings, and the small meet-ups in between.

  • Discover what is happening near you this week
  • RSVP in a tap and see who else is going
  • Host your own and reach the whole community

SOS

The numbers you hope never to need, ready before you need them.

  • Emergency services for the country you are in
  • Embassy and consular assistance
  • After-hours pharmacy and doctor lines

Private chat

Talk to sellers, hosts and neighbours without handing over your number.

  • Direct messages tied to a listing or question
  • Stay anonymous until you choose otherwise
  • Block and report built in from day one

Up and running in three minutes

  1. 1

    Download and pick your city

    Choose where you live and the whole app reshapes around it — listings, events and answers from your area first.

  2. 2

    See what your neighbours know

    Browse questions, businesses and events already posted by people who moved before you.

  3. 3

    Join in when you are ready

    Ask, sell, host or just quietly read. Post under your name or a pseudonym — your call.

Tell us what you think

This app is built by one person who moved country too, and it gets better every time someone says what's missing. Found a bug? Want a feature? Want your business listed? We read everything.

Running a business?

Getting listed in the Yellow Pages is free. Pick “List my business” in the form and we'll set you up.

0/4000

We only use your details to reply to this message. No newsletters, no sharing.

Questions, answered

Is it free?

Yes. Browsing, asking, selling and listing your business are all free.

Why can I only read titles on this website?

The community lives inside the app, where we can keep it safe — verified members, moderation and reporting. The website shows you what is being discussed; the app is where you take part.

Do I have to use my real name?

No. You can post questions, answers and reviews under a persistent pseudonym, so the community still recognises you across posts without knowing who you are.

Is this only for Indian expats?

It started with the Indian community in Belgium and that is still its heart, but everyone settling into a new country is welcome.

How do I list my business?

Create your listing in the app under Yellow Pages, or message us on WhatsApp and we will walk you through it.

How do you handle my data?

Contact details on business listings are never exposed to the browser, and we never sell your data. Ask us anything about it — the form on this page reaches a human.

Still stuck? Send us a message — a human replies.
