Living in a foreign country can be an exciting and rewarding experience. It can also be a very challenging one. Many people are unprepared for the reality of living full-time in a different environment.

If you are planning to move to another country on a long-term basis, find out about the culture and religions and how much they play a part in everyday life. This type of research is particularly important in cultures where certain behaviours, habits or gestures have different meanings. For example, in many Eastern countries, you mustn't touch people's heads, not even patting the heads of small children. These are very offensive gestures, but easily done if you are not aware of this.

Culture shock has been officially identified as a form of long-term psychological stress. Typically, it can be split into a number of phases. The first is called the tourist or honeymoon stage, when the visitor is fascinated by their new home and it feels like a great adventure. The next stage is the rejection phase, when you feel homesick and can feel a sense of isolation. After that comes the conformist stage, when you accept the culture, and finally, there is the total assimilation stage. Now you can speak the language, have friends, and feel at home. Living in a foreign culture is a fascinating experience. Don't be afraid to try it. Just be prepared.
