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 Panama City. They wrote...

"Expats in Panama City often find the language barrier to be one of the most challenging aspects of the local culture. Additionally, the city's hot and humid climate can be difficult to adjust to. Expats may also find it difficult to navigate the city's complex bureaucracy and to understand the local customs and traditions. Furthermore, the cost of living in Panama City can be high, making it difficult for expats to find affordable housing and other necessities," remarked another expat who made the move to Panama City, Panama.

"For me it has been difficult to learn the language at my age. I try, I make my mistakes, but I am determined and so amazed at what is possible when you want something bad enough. To not learn the language is to miss out on so much," explained one expat living in Panama City, Panama.
