What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Toronto. They wrote...
"Expats in Toronto often find the local culture to be quite different from what they are used to. Many find the pace of life to be much faster than what they are accustomed to, and the cost of living can be quite high. Additionally, the weather can be quite unpredictable, with extreme temperatures in both summer and winter. Furthermore, the city is quite multicultural, and many expats find it difficult to adjust to the different customs and languages. Finally, the city can be quite crowded, and traffic can be a challenge to navigate," remarked another expat in Toronto, Canada.
"There is a big cultural difference between China and Canada. Inititally I found hard to be fully aware of the difference, then it came the challenges to express it accurately. During the time, I did not have social network and had a hard time to build one. The situation put a lot of stress on my work and life," said a member in Toronto, Canada.
