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 Visegrad. They wrote...

"Expats in Visegrad 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 are generally polite and respectful, but they can also be quite reserved and private, which can make it difficult for expats to form close relationships. The bureaucracy in Hungary can also be a challenge for expats. Dealing with government offices and paperwork can be a slow and frustrating process, especially for those who are not fluent in Hungarian. Additionally, some expats may find the traditional gender roles in Hungary to be challenging. While the country is modernizing and attitudes are changing, traditional gender roles are still prevalent in many aspects of Hungarian society. Lastly, the cost of living in Visegrad can be higher than in other parts of Hungary, which can be a challenge for expats on a tight budget," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Visegrad, Hungary.
