What do expats find most challenging?

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

"Expats in Gyor often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture. Hungarian is a unique and complex language that is difficult to learn, especially for English speakers. Another challenge is the reserved nature of the locals. Hungarians, especially in smaller cities like Gyor, tend to be more introverted and private, which can make it difficult for expats to form connections and friendships. Understanding and adapting to local customs and traditions can also be challenging. For instance, Hungarians have specific etiquette rules for dining and socializing that may be unfamiliar to foreigners. The slower pace of life in Gyor can also be a challenge for expats who are used to a faster, more hectic lifestyle. This can be particularly difficult for those who are used to being constantly busy and productive. Lastly, while Hungary is part of the European Union, it still maintains its own currency, the Forint, which can be confusing and difficult to manage for expats used to Euros or Dollars," said a member in Gyor, Hungary.
