What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Peniche. They wrote...
"Expats in Peniche often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture. Portuguese is the official language of the country, and many locals may not be able to communicate in English. Additionally, the Portuguese culture is very family-oriented, and expats may find it difficult to make friends and build relationships with locals. Furthermore, the Portuguese are known for their laid-back attitude, which can be difficult for expats who are used to a more fast-paced lifestyle. Finally, the Portuguese are known for their strong sense of pride and patriotism, which can be difficult for expats to understand and appreciate," remarked another expat in Peniche, Portugal.
"People, especially in this part of the country, are pretty tough, they lack refinement and subtlety," said a member in Peniche, Portugal.
