Culture Shocking

Brain Yapping

Travelling can be rewarding, exciting, mind expanding, and also, a little odd to wrap our brains around. Rachel and Dean talk about the weirdness of culture shock, from small differences (did you know Americans don’t use kettles) to cavernous shifts (in Mexico, according to Dean, you may find yourself on a bus, with people carrying chickens in boxes) and why it can feel so discombobulating.
