Everybody knows about experiencing culture shock when you visit a
country with different customs, cuisine or language. But sometimes the
worst culture shock of all comes when you return home.
Reverse culture shock
is the name people give to that feeling of not fitting in to your home
country, and you’re especially at risk of it if you return home after
living abroad for an extended time.
The best way to beat reverse culture shock is to be aware of how it
might strike. Here are a few of the experiences you could expect to have
once you return home.
