"Expats in Prague often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture. Czech is a difficult language to learn, and many expats find it difficult to communicate with locals. Additionally, the Czech Republic has a unique culture and customs that can be difficult for expats to understand and adjust to. For example, Czechs tend to be more formal and reserved in their interactions with strangers, which can be difficult for expats who are used to more informal social interactions. Additionally, Czechs tend to be quite traditional in their views and values, which can be difficult for expats to adjust to," said another expat in Prague, Czechia.
