What is life like as an expat in your area?
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 Annecy is often described as idyllic and peaceful. The city is known for its stunning natural beauty, with a crystal-clear lake surrounded by mountains, making it a perfect place for those who love outdoor activities. The city itself is charming with its medieval old town, canals, and colorful houses. Expats and digital nomads in Annecy enjoy a high quality of life, with excellent food and wine, a rich cultural scene, and a safe and clean environment. The city is also conveniently located, with easy access to other major cities in France and Europe. The local people are generally friendly and welcoming, although knowing some French can greatly enhance the experience as not everyone speaks English. The cost of living can be high compared to other parts of France, particularly for housing. However, there are plenty of co-working spaces and cafes with reliable internet for digital nomads to work from. Despite being a small city, Annecy has a vibrant expat community, with various social events and activities organized regularly. This makes it easier for newcomers to make friends and integrate into the local community. Overall, life for expats and digital nomads in Annecy is relaxed and enjoyable, offering a perfect balance between work and leisure," wrote a member who made the move to Annecy, France.
