Bolivia

What do I need to know before moving to Bolivia?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Bolivia, they said...

"Bolivia is a culturally diverse country with a rich history and vibrant culture. Expats should be aware that Spanish is the official language, although many indigenous languages are also spoken. It is important to research the local customs and etiquette before moving to Bolivia, as these can vary greatly from region to region. Expats should also be aware that the cost of living in Bolivia is generally lower than in other countries, but that the infrastructure and services may not be as developed as in other countries. Additionally, expats should be aware that the climate in Bolivia can vary greatly depending on the region, with some areas experiencing extreme temperatures and weather conditions. Finally, expats should be aware that Bolivia is a cash-based economy, so it is important to have access to cash when needed," commented one expat who made the move to Bolivia.
