"Expats and digital nomads living in Moshi, often like the friendly and welcoming local community, which makes it easy for them to integrate and make friends. They also appreciate the stunning natural beauty surrounding the town, including Mount Kilimanjaro, which offers opportunities for hiking and outdoor activities. The relatively low cost of living is another attractive aspect, as it allows for a comfortable lifestyle without breaking the bank. The climate in Moshi is generally pleasant, with warm temperatures and a moderate amount of rainfall, making it an enjoyable place to live for those who prefer a tropical environment. Additionally, the town has a laid-back atmosphere, which can be a refreshing change from the hustle and bustle of big cities. However, there are also some challenges that expats and digital nomads may face while living in Moshi. The infrastructure can be lacking, with unreliable internet connections and frequent power outages, which can be particularly frustrating for those who rely on technology for work. The healthcare facilities may not be up to the standards that some expats are used to, and it may be necessary to travel to larger cities for more specialized care. The limited availability of certain goods and services can also be a downside, as it may be difficult to find specific items or brands that one is accustomed to. Additionally, while English is widely spoken, the language barrier can still be an issue, particularly when dealing with local bureaucracy or trying to navigate the legal system. Lastly, the slower pace of life in Moshi may not suit everyone, and some expats and digital nomads may find it challenging to adjust to the more relaxed way of doing things," explained one expat living in Moshi, Tanzania.
