When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...
"Locals are friendly and it is easy to find your way around. Meeting people can be difficult at first and it is important to be outgoing here," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Adelaide, Australia.
"Sport is very popular, especially amongst men. Women enjoy a variety of activities. Cafes, eating outdoors and enjoying the theatre are also very popular," commented one expat who made the move to Melbourne, Australia.
