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...

"Nordrhein-Westfalen is an attractive destination for expats and digital nomads due to its vibrant cities, diverse culture, and excellent infrastructure. Expats and digital nomads in Nordrhein-Westfalen can enjoy a high quality of life, with plenty of opportunities to explore the region's rich history and culture. The cost of living is relatively low compared to other parts of Germany, making it an attractive option for those looking to live and work in the country. The cities of Cologne, Düsseldorf, and Dortmund are particularly popular with expats and digital nomads, offering a wide range of activities and attractions. The region is also well-connected, with excellent public transport links to other parts of Germany and beyond," remarked another expat in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany.

"That's one of the things that I enjoy here. People seem to enjoy their free time more. BBQ's, garden parties or just generally getting together over a few drinks. Their are lot's of council run activities, Karneval, Kirmes etc, which involve, basically having a good time. These activities are also children friendly," said a member in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany.
