Baham means "together"
Baham helps people living abroad connect with others who share their language, culture and interests. Whatever your background and wherever you live, you can find a partner or new friends, meet other families, find a home, showcase your business and ask questions.
From a classifieds site in Stockholm to a global platform
Baham started in 2024 in Stockholm with a simple idea: wherever we live, many of us prefer to deal with people who speak our language , rent homes from them and learn from their experience.
From the very first days, our goal was to build a trustworthy place with no middlemen, where everyone feels at home in their own language. Today Baham has five main services: Home rentals, Businesses, Immigration forum, Dating and Family friends; and it is on the web, iPhone and Android for people everywhere looking for their community.
