Culture Shock…

This is what we commonly feel if we happened to go to other places and experience their life style, culture and eventually their habits. In fact Culture shock is a term used to describe the anxiety and feelings (of surprise, disorientation, confusion, etc.) felt by an individual caused by coming into contact with an entirely different environment, such as a different country. It often relates to the inability to assimilate the new culture, causing difficulty in knowing what is appropriate and what is not. Often this is combined with strong disgust (moral or aesthetical) about certain aspects of the foreign culture.

I’m sharing this with you ’cause I want you to know how important to study and be aware first to the culture, customs and practices of a specific country or place to were you wanted to go. Beware everything specifically your a stranger on that country. So, it is a must that you should adopt their culture too for you to be able to get a life on that particular country. Be safe everyone!…c”,)
