"Expats in Morocco often find the local culture to be quite different from their own, which can be challenging to adjust to. Language barriers can be difficult to overcome, as many locals do not speak English. Additionally, the local customs and traditions can be difficult to understand and adhere to, as they are often quite different from those of the expat's home country.
