What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Calivigny Island. They wrote...
"Expats in Calivigny Island may find the local dialect, Grenadian Creole, challenging to understand and communicate in, as it is a unique blend of English, French, African and native Carib languages. The slower pace of life, often referred to as 'island time', can also be a challenge for those accustomed to a more fast-paced, punctual lifestyle. The local cuisine, while delicious, can be quite spicy and may take some getting used to for those with milder palates. Additionally, the high heat and humidity can be difficult to adjust to, particularly for those from cooler climates. Lastly, while Grenada is generally safe, expats may need to adjust to different safety standards and practices," commented one expat who made the move to Calivigny Island, Grenada.
