What do people like (and dislike) about Mendoza?
When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Mendoza, they replied...
"Expats and digital nomads generally like living in Mendoza, for several reasons. They appreciate the city's laid-back atmosphere, which is a refreshing change from the hustle and bustle of larger cities. The beautiful natural surroundings, including the Andes Mountains and numerous vineyards, provide ample opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, and wine tasting. Mendoza's climate is also a major draw, with its warm, sunny days and cool evenings. The cost of living in Mendoza is relatively low, making it an attractive destination for those looking to stretch their budget. Expats and digital nomads can find affordable housing, food, and transportation options. The local cuisine is another highlight, with delicious Argentine dishes such as empanadas, asado, and Malbec wine readily available. Mendoza's friendly and welcoming locals make it easy for expats and digital nomads to integrate into the community. The city also has a growing expat community, providing opportunities for networking and socializing with like-minded individuals. However, there are some aspects of living in Mendoza that expats and digital nomads may dislike. The city's public transportation system is not as extensive or reliable as those in larger cities, which can make getting around more challenging. Additionally, while Spanish is the primary language spoken in Mendoza, English is not as widely spoken as in some other international destinations, which may pose a language barrier for some expats and digital nomads. The slower pace of life in Mendoza can also be a double-edged sword, as some may find it too quiet or lacking in entertainment options compared to larger cities. Finally, the internet speed and reliability may not be up to the standards that digital nomads require for their work, which could be a significant drawback for those who rely on a stable internet connection," said another expat in Mendoza, Argentina.
