When traveling or living abroad what gave you the biggest culture shock?
Three Elements of Culture
• The first is that culture is learned. This means that unlike hair color or height, culture is not a hereditary trait. If a French mother and an Australian father live in Mexico and have a child, the child will adopt the Mexican culture language, values, importance of events, etc. The child will certainly have a better sense of French and Australian cultures than its classmates, but it will, nevertheless, accept the Mexican culture as its own.
• Second, culture is shared by all members of society. This trait is what turns ideals and values into a culture rather than a personal preference. Subcultures can certainly exist within a culture; this is particularly true when large groups of immigrants arrive in a country and "find" one another. In this way Jewish or Italian or Polish subculture may flourish within a larger culture.
