What do expats find most challenging?

"Expats in Macedonia often find the language barrier to be one of the most challenging aspects of the local culture. Additionally, the country's complex history and the presence of multiple ethnic and religious groups can make it difficult for expats to understand the cultural nuances of the region. Furthermore, the country's traditional gender roles and expectations can be difficult for expats to navigate. Finally, the lack of English-speaking locals can make it difficult for expats to make meaningful connections with the local community," remarked another expat in Macedonia.
