What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Ayangue. They wrote...
"Expats in Ayangue often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture, as Spanish is the primary language spoken and not everyone is fluent in English. They may also struggle with the slower pace of life, which is a stark contrast to the fast-paced lifestyle in many Western countries. The concept of "Ecuadorian time," where punctuality is not strictly adhered to, can be frustrating for those used to strict schedules. Additionally, the local cuisine, which heavily features seafood and other local produce, may take some getting used to. Lastly, adjusting to the local customs and traditions, such as the importance of family and community, can also be challenging for expats," commented one expat who made the move to Ayangue, Ecuador.
