Travelling is one of the great pleasures in life. You are completely anonymous which means you can act like an idiot, say stupid things, wear a big ugly T-shirt, then go home and brag about how savvy you are. But when you live in a foreign country, youâre an idiot 24 hours a day. The language is the first hurdle, good luck with that. The few things you get right celebrate them, post them on FB for your friends to see. So they think youâre doing well in your new life living abroad. After a few years, your friends will say things like âI could never live in a foreign countryâ and you will become defensive. âGood, then donât move here.â But donât give up on acclimating, over time things will get better. You will start to learn new words in another language, then use them inappropriately which will make people laugh. Youâll make new friends who you canât talk to because a simple sentence takes forever, and no one has an hour to listen to you. People will start to wave to avoid talking to you. If youâre lucky some will speak your language and youâll stick to them like glue. Youâll know youâre beginning to fit in when you stop asking for ketchup. But no matter what you do or how long you stay, youâll always be a fish out of water.
