What do expats find most challenging?
We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in David. They wrote...
"Expats in David often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture, as Spanish is the primary language spoken and not everyone is fluent in English. The slower pace of life can also be a challenge for those accustomed to a more fast-paced, punctual environment. Additionally, the heat and humidity can be difficult to adjust to, especially for those from cooler climates. The local cuisine, while delicious, can be a challenge for some expats due to its heavy reliance on rice, beans, and meat. Lastly, navigating the local bureaucracy can be a challenge, as it often involves a lot of paperwork and processes can be slow," wrote a member who made the move to David, Panama.
