Culture Shocks - Meal times, intimacy, and other Catalan habits

Filling the Sink - Ein Podcast von catalannews

Whether you’re new to Catalonia or a local about to move abroad, tune in for some advice and funny stories on coping with culture shock. Alejandra Angulo Alonso, Cillian Shields, and Gerard Escaich Folch ask tourists what has been their biggest culture shock so far and a psychology professor from the University of Barcelona explains the difficulties of being in unfamiliar environments. This week's Catalan phrase is ‘Allà on vagis, fes el que vegis fer allí’. A close contender in English would be “When in Rome do as the Romans do.”
