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 Afghanistan can be difficult due to the security threats and instability that exists in the country. Despite this, there is a small but growing community of expats and digital nomads based in Afghanistan, particularly in the capital, Kabul. They typically stay in secure residential compounds and have access to basic amenities such as Wi-Fi, supermarkets and hospitals. Due to the security concerns, expats and digital nomads in Afghanistan generally have limited access to the outdoors, with areas close to the city being the safest. However, with a wealth of culture and an ever-growing tech start-up culture, many expats find that the positive experiences of living in Afghanistan outweigh the negatives," remarked another expat who made the move to Afghanistan.
