What do expats find most challenging?

"Expats in Playa Hermosa often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture, as not everyone speaks English and it can be difficult to communicate without a basic understanding of Spanish. The slower pace of life, known as "Tico time", can also be a challenge for those used to a more fast-paced, punctual lifestyle. Additionally, the local cuisine may be a challenge for some, as it is quite different from typical Western food. The high humidity and heat can also be difficult for those not used to tropical climates. Lastly, adjusting to the local customs and etiquette, such as the importance of family and community, can be a challenge for some expats," commented one expat who made the move to Playa Hermosa, Costa Rica.
