What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Laos. They wrote...
"Expatriates in Laos often find the local culture to be quite different from their own, which can be challenging to adjust to. The language barrier can be difficult to overcome, as English is not widely spoken in Laos. Additionally, the local customs and etiquette can be difficult to understand, as they are often quite different from those of the expat's home country. Furthermore, the pace of life in Laos is much slower than in many other countries, which can be difficult for expats to adjust to," remarked another expat who made the move to Laos.
"Getting set up visa wise and continuing learning process of the culture and language," explained one expat living in Vientiane, Laos.
