What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Puglia. They wrote...
"Expats in Puglia often find the local culture to be quite different from what they are used to. The language barrier can be a challenge, as many locals do not speak English. Additionally, the slower pace of life and the emphasis on family and tradition can be difficult to adjust to. Furthermore, the local cuisine can be quite different from what expats are used to, and the lack of international food options can be a challenge. Finally, the hot and humid climate can be difficult to adjust to for those coming from cooler climates," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Puglia, Italy.
