The term culture shock is used to describe the emotional and physical discomfort a person suffers when moving to a completely new environment. Individuals often experience a lack of direction, a feeling of not knowing what to do or how to handle things, how to react and of not knowing what is (in-) appropriate. Culture shock is a natural and human response to new cultural experiences. Culture shock is precipitated by the anxiety that results from losing all our familiar signs and symbols of social interaction. When a person enters a strange culture, familiar cues are removed. Without these unwritten rules regarding appropriate behaviour. people may experience frustration and anxiety.
