This document discusses culture shock, which is defined as the negative experience of sudden exposure to an unfamiliar culture. Culture shock is a normal reaction caused by information overload from too many new cultural aspects at once, as well as role shifting and personal stress from being tired, confused and lost in the new environment. The document outlines some causes of culture shock such as differences in language, customs, food and climate between one's home and host country. It also describes the stages of culture shock, including an initial honeymoon phase, a rejection phase where one complains and sees only negatives, and finally an acceptance phase where one becomes more comfortable with the local language and customs.
