What do expats find most challenging?

"Expats in Gorgona, Panama often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture, as Spanish is the primary language spoken and not everyone is fluent in English. They may also struggle with the slower pace of life, known as "Panama time", which can be frustrating for those accustomed to more punctual cultures. The heat and humidity can be difficult to adjust to, especially for those from cooler climates. Additionally, understanding and navigating the local bureaucracy can be complex and time-consuming. Lastly, while Panamanians are generally friendly and welcoming, it can take time for expats to fully integrate and feel accepted into the local community," explained one expat living in gorgona, Panama.
