Hello everyone.  I recently arrived in Lyon from the US.  I have a work visa until January 2012.  I would love to meet some new people and it is hard here because I have not learned French yet!  If anyone is interested in going out and exploring the city, let me know.

Hi and welcome on Expat.com eweb384 :)

I can suggest you to have a look at the American expatriates in Lyon network if you want to meet american members who are already in Lyon and may help you settle. Otherwise i hope you will get responses on the forum.

Hi Meritxell and Kate! I take classes at Alliance Francaise also.  Maybe we can arrange a meet-up after classes when you have both arrived and settled in Lyon. Let me know if you guys are interested!  Take care.
