Cultural Shock- Adjustment Period


A few weeks in to my stay in Australia, I started to get used to things and find my place. This was the third stage or the adjustment period where accepting the new culture begins. The convenience of air conditioning, drying, name brand foods, and transportation no longer seem mundane. They are not necessary to my new way of life and I am beginning to adjust to the slang and speaking like a true Aussie saying things like uni (university), sunnies (sunglasses), and rubbish (trash). I am starting too really like living here.
