Navigating Cultural and Professional Expectations in Eastern Europe

Moving to a new continent for work involves more than just packing your bags. For Kenyan caregivers heading to Eastern Europe, understanding the local culture, social etiquette, and professional standards is paramount. This includes adapting to different communication styles, family dynamics, and workplace expectations.
