What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Namibia. They wrote...
"Expats in Namibia often find the local culture to be quite different from what they are used to. The language barrier can be a challenge, as English is not widely spoken outside of the major cities. Additionally, the local customs and traditions can be difficult to understand and navigate. Namibia is a very conservative country, and expats may find it difficult to adjust to the more traditional values and attitudes. Furthermore, the cost of living in Namibia can be quite high, making it difficult for expats to find affordable housing and other necessities," remarked another expat who made the move to Namibia.
