"Expatriates typically find adapting to a new lifestyle in another country difficult and daunting. This includes getting used to different cultural norms, the language barrier, and overcoming homesickness. Additionally, navigating unfamiliar bureaucracies and dealing with transportation issues, workplace challenges, security concerns and finding a sense of belonging in a foreign country can be difficult and overwhelming. Finding reliable, trustworthy and affordable services can be especially challenging and many expats may also struggle with understanding different taxes, customs and government regulations in their new home country," said a member in Saipan, United States.
