    The Culture Shock Moments that Changed How I See the World

    Today is all about fascinating cultural contrasts I've experienced while living and traveling abroad. From Amsterdam's cycling culture to England's jaywalking chaos (I think this is a ME problem lol), and even hacks in developing countries, these differences have reshaped how I view the world. At the heart of it all, I’ve learned one lesson. Let’s explore how these experiences can broaden our perspectives and deepen our understanding of humanity. What we discuss: The contrast between peace and structure versus chaos and flexibility in different cultures.How daily habits and societal norms shape our experiences and well-being.Navigating unexpected cultural shocks and embracing new perspectives.The universal human desire for connection, happiness, and peace.Lessons on breaking down barriers to build deeper understanding and relationships.Need help creating a CV?
