Navigating through the Volkan's journey of relocation
Uprooting your life and settling into a new environment is a significant undertaking that can bring both excitement and challenges. Today, we have the opportunity to gain valuable insights from an expat who has recently relocated to Prague, the vibrant capital of the Czech Republic. Our interviewee shares their experiences, challenges, and tips for those considering embarking on their own relocation journey.
How difficult is moving and subsequent acclimatization in a new environment?
Moving and acclimatizing to a new environment can be challenging, especially for those coming from a warmer climate like myself. Adjusting to the weather and cultural differences can take time. However, with an open mind and a willingness to embrace new experiences, the transition can be smoother and more rewarding.

How satisfied are you with your new job after moving?
I am very pleased with my new job. It suits my skills and interests well, and I am enjoying the challenges and opportunities it presents. The company culture is also positive and supportive, which makes me feel valued and appreciated.

Were there any problems/challenges and how were they solved?
One of the biggest challenges I faced was missing my loved ones back home. The distance can be tough, but technology has been a lifesaver. Video calls and messaging platforms have helped me stay connected and alleviate the longing.

How is it to move to a new country all alone?
Moving to a new country alone can be an enriching experience that fosters independence and self-reliance. It allows you to explore your own interests, meet new people, and discover new aspects of yourself. However, it's important to build a support system, whether it's joining expat communities or connecting with locals, to provide a sense of belonging and camaraderie.

How challenging is it to understand/speak the Czech language?
The Czech language is considered moderately difficult for native English speakers. It has a complex grammatical structure and a unique pronunciation system. However, with dedicated effort and practice, it is possible to learn the language and communicate effectively.

Have you learned anything in the Czech language already?
Yes, I've learned a little. I can say this: Praha je velmi krásné město.

Was the VISA process challenging?
The VISA process can be daunting, but with the right support and preparation, it can be managed smoothly. Fortunately, I received relocation assistance from Reasunta, which made the process much easier and streamlined.

Do you have any positive/negative experiences so far?
My overall experience has been positive. I am grateful for the relocation support provided by Reasunta, which made the transition to Prague much smoother. I was particularly impressed with how quickly I obtained my long-term residency permit and secured an apartment.

Do you have any tips for other people who are thinking about relocation?
Relocation is a significant undertaking that requires careful planning, preparation, and a willingness to adapt. Here are some tips for those considering relocating:
  • Research thoroughly: Before making any decisions, conduct in-depth research about the new location, including its culture, language, cost of living, job market, and healthcare system.
  • Seek professional guidance: Consider seeking relocation support from a reputable company like Reasunta. They can provide valuable assistance with visa processing, housing arrangements, and other aspects of the relocation process.
  • Embrace the journey: Relocation is a process, not a destination. Be patient with yourself, allow time for adjustment, and embrace the challenges and opportunities that come with immersion in a new environment.

We hope these insights and tips prove helpful for those considering relocation. Remember, every relocation experience is unique, and with the right approach and support, it can be a transformative and enriching journey. But with Reasunta it will definitely be easier.
