What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Lyon. They wrote...
"Expats in Lyon often find adapting to the local culture challenging due to the different attitudes to punctuality and directness. French people often take a more relaxed approach to arriving for appointments or events on time and their direct communication style can be off-putting for newcomers not used to such directness. It is also often difficult for expats to grasp the nuances of the French language, which can make communication difficult. Finally, expats sometimes find the limited availability of services in English language to be a challenge," said a member in Lyon, France, France.
