What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Coffs Harbour. They wrote...
"Expats in Coffs Harbour may find the laid-back, slower pace of life challenging if they are used to a fast-paced, high-stress environment. The local dialect and slang can also be difficult to understand for those not familiar with Australian English. Some expats may find it challenging to adapt to the local customs and social norms, such as the Australian love for outdoor activities and sports. The cost of living can also be high, particularly for housing, which may be a challenge for expats from countries with a lower cost of living. Lastly, while Australians are generally friendly and welcoming, it can take time to form deep, meaningful relationships, which can be challenging for expats who are used to a different social dynamic," said a member in Coffs Harbour, Australia.
