, 1 TRANSNATIONAL ISSUES: THE FLOW OF PEOPLE
1.1 four stages of culture shock
Stage 1: The Honeymoon
The honeymoon stage glamorises the new and exciting environment, the “wow! I can’t
believe I live here!” You say your goodbyes to all things familiar, take a flight, and get off
the plane with eyes full of wonder and a long to-do list of all the spots, restaurants, and
parts of town you want to see (Trifonovitch 1977: 19). This can last for days or months as
you continue on vacation mode in your new home.
Tourist tend to believe the people and way of life are not that different from what they are
used to. Everything is new and exciting. One problem may be that they expect that this
phase and these feelings will continue.
Stage 2: The frustration stage
The frustration stage is the initial feelings of homesickness or longing for your local
customs. Tourists may find themselves saying, “Well why do they do it this way? Don’t
they know this other way would be so much more efficient?” Feelings start to emerge as
though they’re dividing their conversations into “we” and “them”. In this stage, frustration,
misunderstanding or aggressiveness to local customs is also common.
Tourists start to recognise what is missing from their new home and boast why certain
things are better in their own country or culture. They may find a desire to vent and bond
with those who are like them, and in doing so create a bubble that replicates their customs
and social norms. It is possible to stay in the frustration stage forever or move forward in
a matter of months up to a year.
