"Expats in Kiribati 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 in Kiribati. Additionally, the local customs and traditions can be difficult to understand and navigate. Expats may also find it difficult to adjust to the slower pace of life in Kiribati, as well as the lack of modern amenities and infrastructure. Finally, the hot and humid climate can be a challenge for those not used to it," remarked another expat who made the move to Kiribati.
