What is life like as an expat in your area?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...

"Life for expats and digital nomads in Benidorm is often described as vibrant and relaxed. The city offers a warm climate year-round, making it an attractive destination for those who enjoy outdoor activities. The cost of living is relatively low compared to other European cities, which is a significant advantage for digital nomads. The city is known for its lively nightlife, with a plethora of bars, clubs, and restaurants to choose from. For those who prefer a quieter lifestyle, there are also plenty of parks, beaches, and hiking trails to explore. The local community is welcoming and diverse, with a large number of British expats residing in the city. This means that English is widely spoken, making it easier for expats and digital nomads to settle in. Benidorm also offers a range of accommodation options, from budget-friendly apartments to luxury villas. Many digital nomads opt for co-living spaces, which provide a sense of community and opportunities for networking. Despite its reputation as a tourist hotspot, Benidorm also has a quieter side, with plenty of cultural attractions such as museums, art galleries, and historic sites. The city also has good infrastructure, with reliable internet and public transportation, making it a practical choice for digital nomads. However, it's worth noting that while the city is generally safe, petty crime such as pickpocketing can be an issue, particularly in tourist-heavy areas. It's also important to be aware of the local customs and laws, as Spain has strict regulations regarding work permits and visas. Overall, life for expats and digital nomads in Benidorm offers a balance of work and leisure, with the opportunity to enjoy a laid-back lifestyle in a beautiful coastal setting," remarked another expat in Benidorm, Spain.
