What is life like as an expat in your area?
When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...
"The local's lives revolve around work, getting to work and family affairs, photography and facebook but beyond that I can't comment. Expat lives revolve around work and family too of course but the family bit comes and goes. Many seem to let the nanny's take over and participate in a lot of Golf or women's organizations, and football/rugby. For us we travel, throw house parties, and participate in school activities," said another expat in Jakarta, Indonesia.
"Living in Jakarta as an expat or digital nomad can be an exciting and rewarding experience. The city is a vibrant and bustling metropolis, with a diverse range of cultures and cuisines. Expats and digital nomads can find plenty of opportunities to explore the city, from its bustling nightlife to its many cultural attractions. The cost of living in Jakarta is relatively low, making it an attractive destination for those looking to live and work abroad. The city is well-connected, with excellent public transport and a wide range of accommodation options. Expats and digital nomads can also benefit from the city's excellent healthcare system and its many international schools. Overall, Jakarta is a great place to live and work for expats and digital nomads," wrote a member who made the move to Jakarta, Indonesia.
