# International Communities

Feeling at home often begins with meeting people, building friendships and becoming part of a community. Fortunately, Lolland has a growing and welcoming international community. Throughout the year, a number of volunteer-driven networks and associations organize social activities where internationals and Danes come together. Whether you're looking for practical advice, new friendships or simply a good cup of coffee with people who understand what it's like to be new in Denmark, you'll find plenty of opportunities to connect.

## International Community Lolland-Falster (ICLF)

International Community Lolland-Falster (ICLF) is a volunteer-run association that brings together internationals and locals through a wide range of social activities throughout the year.

The community organizes communal dinners, family-friendly events, cultural activities and networking opportunities. Every September, ICLF also hosts its annual Welcome Event, where new international residents can meet other newcomers as well as people who have already made Lolland their home.

[Everyone is welcome to join, and most activities are announced through the ICLF Facebook group.](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61557962918465 "Everyone is welcome to join, and most activities are announced through the ICLF Facebook group.")

## International Café – Den Blå Fisk

If you're looking for a relaxed place to meet people, the International Café at Den Blå Fisk in Maribo is a wonderful place to start.

Every Tuesday from 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM (except during holiday periods), volunteers welcome internationals for coffee, cake and conversation at Østergade 12, Maribo. It's an informal meeting place where you can practice Danish or English, meet people from many different countries, ask questions about everyday life in Denmark, or simply enjoy good company.

Everyone is welcome. No registration is required. Just show up.

## Filipino Association Lolland-Falster

The Filipino Association Lolland-Falster is a vibrant community established by Filipino residents living on Lolland and Falster.

The association organizes a variety of activities throughout the year, including language cafés, karaoke evenings, sports events and cultural celebrations. While the network has strong Filipino roots, many of their activities are open to everyone interested in meeting new people and experiencing different cultures.
