The most I had trouble with at the beginning was dealing with the language barrier and how to get through that.  Went to the grocery store when first got here and couldn't read what anything was.  Didn't know what the lady was saying when I checked out.  Was very difficult and overwhelming.  I have learned throughout the weeks how to do with it.  Learned the language so can communicate as best I can.  Know that they don't like to take big bills, like exact change.  Have just learned my way around better.  Know my attitudes have changed because I have accepted the differences between our cultures.  Used to think people were just being rude, but now know that they are just passionate when they speak and interact with others.
