What do expats find most challenging?

Answer this Question

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

"Expat life in Wuhan can present some cultural challenges, such as the difficulties of navigating through an unfamiliar language and different communication standards. Additionally, the traditional customs in Wuhan often involve a hierarchical structure of respect, which may be rather foreign to those from more egalitarian cultures. Furthermore, the strengths of the local culture – such as large family gatherings, warm hospitality, and strong work ethics – can sometimes be quite overwhelming for those from more individualistic societies. In particular, the sense of community in Wuhan requires a degree of adjustment and participation from expats who may be used to a more reserved and independent atmosphere," wrote a member who made the move to Wuhan, China, China.
