What do expats find most challenging?

"Expats in Le Marin may find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture, as French is the official language and English is not widely spoken. They may also struggle with the slower pace of life, which is typical of island cultures but can be frustrating for those used to a faster, more efficient pace. The local cuisine, while delicious, can be quite different from what many expats are used to, and may require an adjustment period. Additionally, the tropical climate, while beautiful, can be difficult to adapt to, particularly for those from cooler climates. Lastly, navigating the local bureaucracy can be challenging, as it can be complex and time-consuming," said another expat in Le Marin, Martinique.
