Living in a new culture can be exciting, personally rewarding, and intellectually stimulating. It can also be frustrating. It is one thing to visit a country, moving on when you have seen enough, and it is quite another to live there and function according to a different, and sometimes, mysterious set of norms. Participation in an exchange programme provides a rare opportunity for you to begin to know another society from within. But it involves certain responsibilities. The most important one is to adapt one's behaviour to the customs and expectations of the host country. This is not to deny one's own culture but to respect that of others. Another, even more subtle, responsibility you have is to remain open in order to become aware of similarities and differences, and to learn rather than to judge. Be aware that this could be the most rewarding experience in your education.
People usually experience many emotions while adapting to a foreign culture, ranging from excitement and interest in the new culture to depression and fear of the unknown.
The difficulties that you experience as you get used to a new society can be a result of what is called "culture shock". Most experts agree that culture shock is inevitable in one form or another. But getting used to a foreign culture, and living through difficult times of change can be a satisfying experience, and certainly worth the occasional discomfort and extra effort.
One tends to get the impression that "culture shock" is some kind of disease that everyone catches and after a certain length of time, gets over it; but nothing could be further from the truth. There arc people who go overseas and never recover from this condition despite the length of their stay. This is because "culture shock" is actually caused by the mismatch of cultural attitudes, not by some virus. And it's easily seen that the traveller who doesn't keep his or her mind open, and doesn't make any effort to try to understand a foreign culture, is always going to be in a state of shock. Such people should stay at home, for if they hold onto their own attitudes, they will never change!
