What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Karlovy Vary. They wrote...
"Expats in Karlovy Vary often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture, as Czech is a difficult language to learn and not everyone speaks English. They also sometimes struggle with the reserved nature of the Czech people, who can come across as cold or distant to newcomers. The bureaucracy can be overwhelming, with many processes and procedures seeming unnecessarily complicated. The local cuisine, which is heavy on meat and potatoes, may not suit everyone's taste. Lastly, the colder climate can be a challenge for those used to warmer weather," explained one expat living in Karlovy Vary, Czechia.
