What Is The Hardest Part Of Living Abroad?
I've been studing in Scotland for a few years. I found that even with the ability to go back to my home country and the ease with which I could adapt to Scottish culture, there were still a few things about home that were hard to adapt to. Some of them were relatively small, like not being able to get good mexican food or go to a store 24-hours a day. Others were hard for me to adapt to, like the educational expectations placed upon students (its incredibly self-directed). This is coming from only being away from home for about 8 months of the year.8 years agoin Business & Jobs-OverseasAnswers(9) Comments(0) -

Points:5It is also hard to make friends here because people are too busy with their job and, in the end they are not there when we really need them.
I don't know if it's an L.A. thing but it happens many times that I see a pregnant woman in the bus and nobody would leave their seat for her, I was so shocked! I was standing and had to tell a young guy to get up and leave his seat for the pregnant lady, I couldn't believe it!

Points:13Alright so for me, living in L.A for 10 months now, the hardest thing is that people only think about their job/career and money. I know that L.A. is an expensive city and some people have two jobs (or more!) at the same time to live and pay their rent but they have no vacation time, no hobbies. I guess this is how it works here in the U.S. I've also noticed that some employees (at least in my company), just because they've been working at the same place for many years, think they can't treat people like sh*t and managers wouldn't say anything to them because they still do their job properly...8 years ago -

Points:10I had a great experience in China overall, but it was the only country where I just couldn't come to appreciate certain things. I looked at everything objectively and compared it to historical and cultural references ... in the end though, I found that I just disagreed with the way they did certain things.8 years ago -

Points:60I guess it all depends, really. I do miss hanging out with my friends, but my best friends and I already lived in different cities so I am used to not seeing them often. Also, back home I visited my dad once a week and my mom once a month since we get along well and so I miss doing that (though other people might welcome the distance from their parents
