What do I need to know before retiring in Senegal?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Senegal, they said...

"Before retiring in Senegal, expats should familiarize themselves with the local language, Wolof, as it is the most widely spoken language in the country. Expats should also research the cost of living in Senegal, as it is generally lower than in many other countries. Additionally, expats should be aware of the climate in Senegal, as it is generally hot and humid throughout the year. It is also important to research the healthcare system in Senegal, as it is not as developed as in many other countries. Finally, expats should be aware of the cultural norms in Senegal, as they may be different from what they are used to," remarked another expat in Senegal.
