What is life like as an expat in your area?

"Life for expats and digital nomads in Coron is a unique blend of adventure and tranquility. The town is known for its stunning natural beauty, including pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and lush mountains, providing plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities such as diving, hiking, and island-hopping. The cost of living is relatively low, making it an attractive destination for those who work remotely. The local community is friendly and welcoming, and English is widely spoken, making it easy for foreigners to communicate and integrate. The food is a delightful mix of local Filipino cuisine and international dishes, with fresh seafood being a highlight. Internet connectivity can be a challenge in some areas, but there are numerous cafes and co-working spaces that offer reliable Wi-Fi. The pace of life is slower compared to big cities, which can be a refreshing change for those seeking a more laid-back lifestyle. However, it's important to note that healthcare facilities are limited, so expats and digital nomads should ensure they have adequate health insurance. Despite these challenges, many expats and digital nomads find the relaxed lifestyle, natural beauty, and friendly community make Coron a rewarding place to live and work," wrote a member who made the move to Coron, Philippines.
