Specialists say it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture.“Culture shock”is the term these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment.There are three stages of culture shock, say the specialists.In the first stage, the newcomers like their new environment.Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else.In the last stage, the newcomers begin to adjust to their surrounding and, as a result, enjoy their life more.
