What's Sojoourn?
Sojoourn is the first company of its kind in Lyon and France. Not only we are an international community of global-minded expats but we also offer the most fun and enriching Welcome Experience for the newcomers in the city. We help you get settled and accompany you from your arrival and throughout your stay with events and personalized services that meet your needs.
Our events are one-of-a-kind activities/workshops designed and hosted by locals and international professionals. Unlike a typical tour or activity, experiences offer by Sojoourn go beyond the activities themselves.

Nina Coates
Yoga Teacher
"I feel like I am a part of a community that supports me. My friends recommended it to me and then I’ve got to know Emmanuelle and I even found my first yoga student through Sojoourn. As a Tribe Leader I can connect to other Tribe Leaders to do workshops and events together, which is amazing as there’s so many opportunities within the community."
