Culture Shock & The 4 Stages of Adaptation

When we move to another country, we are often exposed to a culture different from ours and need to go through four stages of transition: Honeymoon, frustration, adjustment, and adaptation. Some people are excited about the foreign culture for months, and others start to get frustrated on day one. And then there are those who experience a culture shock that is so strong that they leave before adjusting.
