What is life like as an expat in your area?
When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...
"Life for expats and digital nomads in Argentina can be quite enjoyable. The country offers a vibrant culture, beautiful landscapes, and a relatively low cost of living. Expats and digital nomads can find plenty of opportunities to explore the country's diverse cities, from the bustling capital of Buenos Aires to the colonial towns of the north. The country also offers a wide range of activities, from skiing in the Andes to exploring the vineyards of Mendoza. Expats and digital nomads can also take advantage of the country's excellent healthcare system and enjoy the warm hospitality of the locals," said another expat in Argentina.
"Life here definately revolves around family and friends. Socializing is a big part of Argentine life. Siestas offer families and friends the opportunity to eat together and you'll still see families wandering the streets for an ice cream at 1 in the morning. Sport plays a heavy part in life here, cycling is very popular as are sporting events like Triathlons. Rafting, kayaking, and hiking attract lots of people at weekends. There are also a speedway track and motor racing track, which get a lot of use. There are a number of museums in town along with a cinema and outdoor theatre," wrote a member who made the move to San Rafael, Argentina.
