Date: Mon Sep 27 04:29:16 1999 While I have been to many countries and seen how people live, I have to wonder how the cultural differences would affect me. I think there is a certain cultural shock and panick I feel thinking of making such a difference in my living conditions. I stayed in Czech Republic for a month. I found myself feeling very lonesome and excluded from many things and conversations due to the language barriers. I missed the familiarity of english and being a part of the conversation in a group. I felt the need to be satisfied by watching them mix and laugh together. I wasn't. Are any others having problems with language barriers? I'd like to hear your thoughts on it.
