Colombia diaspora in Peru

People from Colombia in Peru meet here, city by city. Each community is a neighbourhood, not a crowd, so if yours is missing, start it.

Communities by city

Where to meet people from Colombia in Peru

No community for people from Colombia exists in Peru on Compatri yet. However, one first member is enough to open one in their city.

As soon as a community starts, its meetups show up on the events page, with the date, the venue and the number of attendees.

Compatri follows cities such as Lima, and each one can host its community.

Joining the Colombia community in Peru

Compatri brings diasporas together where they live. First, you choose the community of your city. Then you discover what its members organise: meals, parties, afterworks or mutual aid. Finally, you message compatriots who share your interests.

You can also host your own meetup: a meal, an outing or a party. It then appears to members of your city, and you follow sign-ups from your account.

Your exact location never appears: other members only see an approximate area. In addition, joining a community and attending events costs nothing.
