Culture shock


My name is Shiori Sugimoto. I am a student in Mr. Anton’s first period EC2 class on Monday.This title is chapter 1 of my text book.
I have never been to foreign country. But I head about Cultural difference when I was junior high school student. For example, don’t pat children’s head, don’t use camera, it is getting in house with shoes, student move to classroom that teacher staying the room…
The story surprised me. And I interesting in foreign country. My teacher often saying us “ When in Roma, do as the Romans do ”. We orient there country to ourselves if we go to there country how we can’t understand. I think important it. So I investigate culture about destination when I will go to foreign country. It is very pleasure!!

I have never been to foreign country too,but I have felt culture shock.I think that it is important for us to understand foreign country's culture if we go to other country.
