Are you ever had a same problem like the picture above? If you ever had the same problem it's mean that you are facing a cross - cultural. It usually happen to us who go to the foreign country and it happen because the culture from our country is different with the country that we visit. At the first we will be very confuse with that, for example in Europe and America we have to drive on the right side. But, in my country Indonesia we have to drive on the left side, so if people from Europe or America come to Indonesia they prefer take a taxi, by foot, or find a tour guide. Next example is in China or India people not shaking hand if they meet with others different from America and even in Indonesia. Now, there are positive and negative impact from this Cross - Cultural problem. The negative one is if you can't adapt well in your new neighbor or if you travel to the foreign country you will fell alone and always try to make a imaginary wall so the local people can't come near you. It's wrong why you came to the foreign country? some of you maybe for a vacation, others for a business travel, and others to stay and live in that new place. Whatever you reason you still have to adapt well in that new location. Are you really will enjoy your trip to that new place if you always think that your culture is different? no, you will become frustration and just want to go back as soon as possible to your own country.
The positive one, if you can adapt well you will enjoy your journey in there you can meet they local handcraft, see their traditional dancing, eat their traditional food, and many more. So try to enter the culture if you visit other country if you want to enjoy their treasure.
