"Expatriates in Oman appreciate the country's rich cultural heritage, which is reflected in its traditional architecture, music, and art. They also appreciate the hospitality of the Omani people, who are known for their warm and welcoming nature. Additionally, expats enjoy the country's diverse cuisine, which is a mix of Middle Eastern, Indian, and African flavors. Finally, expats appreciate the country's stunning natural beauty, with its rugged mountains, lush oases, and stunning beaches," said one person in Oman.

The conservative dress code and social norms can be difficult to adhere to, and the language barrier can be a challenge for those who do not speak Arabic. Additionally, the hot climate and lack of public transportation can make it difficult to get around. Finally, the lack of nightlife and alcohol can be a difficult adjustment for those used to a more western lifestyle," said one expat in Oman.

"Covering most parts of my body even when it's scorching hot. I also just cannot understand why women would agree to being in such a submissive role," said a person living in Salalah.
