Answer this Question

We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Punta del Este. They wrote...

"Expats in Punta del Este often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture. Many locals speak Spanish, and those who do not speak English may be difficult to communicate with. Additionally, the local customs and traditions can be difficult to understand and navigate for those who are not familiar with them. Expats may also find the cost of living in Punta del Este to be higher than they are used to, as the city is a popular tourist destination. Finally, the weather in Punta del Este can be unpredictable, with strong winds and sudden rainstorms, making it difficult to plan outdoor activities," explained one expat living in Punta del Este, Uruguay.
