What do expats find most challenging?

Answer this Question

We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Jeffreys Bay. They wrote...

"Expats in Jeffreys Bay may find the language barrier challenging, as the local languages include Afrikaans and Xhosa, in addition to English. They may also struggle with understanding and adapting to local customs and traditions, which can be quite different from their own. The pace of life in Jeffreys Bay is slower than in many Western countries, which can be a difficult adjustment for some expats. Additionally, the high crime rate in South Africa can be a concern for expats, and they may find it challenging to navigate the local systems for safety and security. Lastly, expats may find it difficult to access certain amenities and services that they are accustomed to in their home countries," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Jeffreys Bay, South Africa.
