What do expats find most challenging?

"Expats in Edinburgh often find the local accent and dialect challenging to understand, as it can be quite distinct and different from standard English. The weather can also be a challenge, as it is often cold, rainy, and unpredictable. Some expats may find the local cuisine, which includes dishes like haggis and black pudding, to be unfamiliar and not to their taste. The Scottish culture of reserved politeness can also be difficult for expats from more outgoing cultures to adjust to. Additionally, the cost of living in Edinburgh is relatively high, which can be a challenge for expats. Lastly, navigating the local bureaucracy and understanding the Scottish legal and healthcare systems can also be challenging for newcomers," said another expat in Edinburgh, Scotland.
