What do expats find most challenging?

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

"Expats in Galway often find the local culture to be quite different from what they are used to. The Irish are known for their friendly and welcoming nature, but the local customs and traditions can be difficult to understand. Additionally, the Irish language can be a challenge for expats to learn, as it is not widely spoken outside of Ireland. Furthermore, the weather in Galway can be unpredictable and can take some getting used to. Finally, the cost of living in Galway can be higher than in other parts of Ireland, making it difficult for expats to adjust to the local economy," said a member in Galway, Ireland.
