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 Avignon. They wrote...

"Expats in Avignon often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture, as not everyone speaks English and a basic understanding of French is necessary for day-to-day life. The slower pace of life can also be a challenge for those accustomed to a faster, more hectic lifestyle. Additionally, the French emphasis on formality and etiquette, particularly in social situations, can be difficult for expats to navigate. The bureaucracy in France can also be overwhelming for newcomers, as it can be complex and time-consuming. Lastly, adjusting to the local cuisine can be a challenge for some, as it is heavily based on meat and dairy products, which may not suit everyone's dietary preferences or restrictions," said a member in Avignon, France.
