Culture shock refers to the confusing and stressful feelings that can occur when living in a new culture different from one's own familiar culture. There are typically four phases of culture shock: the honeymoon stage, the frustration stage, the comparison stage, and the acceptance stage. When moving to a new culture, it is important to try learning some key phrases in the new language, maintain normal routines, explore new opportunities, and set up a support group to help deal with concerns.
