When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Ivory Coast, they said:
"Before moving to Ivory Coast, expats should be aware of the country's tropical climate and the potential for extreme weather conditions. Expats should also be aware of the language barrier, as French is the official language of Ivory Coast. It is also important to research the local customs and culture, as well as the cost of living in the country.
