My Personal,Social and Academic Culture Shock Experience
Leaving home and traveling to study in a new country can be a stressful experience, even though it may be something you have planned and prepared for. Many people are surprised when they experience the impact of culture shock, and it can be helpful to realize your experience is actually quite normal.
culture shock describes the impact of moving from a familiar culture to one that is unfamiliar. it includes the shock of a new environment, meeting lots of new people and learning the ways of a new country. it also includes the shock of being separated from the important people in your life, such as family, friends, colleagues, and teachers: people you would talk to at times of uncertainty, people who give you support and guidance.
