"Expatriates in Exeter may find the local culture to be quite different from what they are used to. The pace of life is slower and the people are more reserved than in other parts of the UK. Additionally, the local dialect can be difficult to understand, and the weather can be unpredictable. Expats may also find it difficult to adjust to the lack of public transportation and the limited availability of international cuisine," said another expat in Exeter, England.
"People are quite reserved and don't readily make eye contact and say hello... lots of simple everyday things to make tasks easier not available here. Going for coffee and getting free refills," wrote a member who made the move to Exeter, UK.
