What do expats find most challenging?

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

"Expats in Pissouri often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture, as Greek is the primary language spoken and not everyone speaks English. The slower pace of life can also be a challenge for those accustomed to a faster, more hectic lifestyle. Additionally, the Cypriot concept of time and punctuality can be difficult to adjust to, as locals often have a more relaxed attitude towards timekeeping. The bureaucracy and red tape involved in dealing with local authorities can also be frustrating for expats. Lastly, cultural differences in social norms and etiquette, such as the importance of personal relationships in business dealings, can be challenging for newcomers to navigate," said a member in Pissouri, Cyprus.
