What do I need to know before moving to Macedonia?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Macedonia, they said...
"Macedonia is a small country located in the Balkan region of Europe. It has a rich cultural heritage and a diverse population. The official language is Macedonian, but English is widely spoken in the cities. The cost of living in Macedonia is relatively low, making it an attractive destination for expats. It is important to note that the country is still transitioning from a socialist economy to a market economy, so there may be some challenges in finding employment. Additionally, the healthcare system is still developing, so expats should consider purchasing private health insurance. Finally, expats should be aware that the climate in Macedonia can be quite extreme, with hot summers and cold winters," commented one expat who made the move to Macedonia.
