What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Belize City. They wrote...
"Newspapers.... frontline news is always about murders etc. so it does scare you a bit. Newspapers.... each one is very politically orientated. So you get very one sided views. QRP (Qualified Persons Package).... can hold you back from doing things you might want to do. It does get frustrating," remarked another expat in Belize City, Belize.
"Expats in Belize City often find the local culture to be quite different from what they are used to. The language barrier can be a challenge, as English is not the primary language spoken in Belize. Additionally, the local customs and traditions can be difficult to understand and navigate. Expats may also find the pace of life in Belize City to be slower than what they are used to, as well as the lack of modern amenities and infrastructure," said a member in Belize City, Belize.
