The Student: Educating and Being Educated

Students move abroad for their education and are very eager to learn the local language. While they카지노 게임 컬렉션�re highly educated and satisfied with their career prospects, their financial situation doesn카지노 게임 컬렉션�t seem too bright.

The majority of Students move abroad to go to school or university (90%), while ten percent want to improve their language skills in general. When it comes to language proficiency, it seems like Students are generally successful: close to three in five (58%) speak the local language at least fairly well, twelve percentage points more than the global average (46%). More than one-third (36%) even speak it very well, which is the highest share among all expat types. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�I like the opportunity to learn a new language,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says a British expat living in France.

Despite being able to communicate easily, Students still struggle to make local friends abroad. More than two in five (41%) find this hard, compared to 36 percent globally. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�It카지노 게임 컬렉션�s not very easy to make new German friends here,카지노 게임 컬렉션� a Chinese expat says. In fact, 35 percent of Students state that their social circle mostly consists of other expats (about the same as 34% globally), while only 13 percent are mainly friends with locals (vs. 19% globally). Maybe this contributes to the fact that just 54 percent of Students feel at home in the local culture, compared to 60 percent worldwide.

Less than half the Students (46%) are in a committed relationship, which is far below the global average (66%) and the lowest share among all expat types 카지노 게임 컬렉션� however, with an average of 32.4 years, they카지노 게임 컬렉션�re also by far the youngest expat type (vs. 44.2 global average). When it comes to those who are in a relationship, though, they카지노 게임 컬렉션�re far more likely than other expat types to have met their significant other in their current country of residence (58% vs. 35% globally). And the romance seems to work: 86 percent report being happy with their relationship, just above the global average (85%).

In addition to being highly educated 카지노 게임 컬렉션� eleven percent of Students hold a PhD, which is the highest share among the various expat types 카지노 게임 컬렉션� they카지노 게임 컬렉션�re also very likely to work in education themselves (14%). Other common fields of occupation include IT (13%) and manufacturing & engineering (9%). With 58 percent positive ratings, Students are quite satisfied with their career prospects, compared to 55 percent globally. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�London is good for young people starting their careers and eager to network and learn,카지노 게임 컬렉션� explains a Slovakian Student. However, only 56 percent of Students are satisfied with their financial situation, which is far below the global average (67%). Therefore, it might not be a surprise that three in ten (30%) think their disposable household income isn카지노 게임 컬렉션�t enough to cover all their living expenses (vs. 22% globally).
