Culture Shock - 9


When you migrate from country to country, you surely see many strange things. If your own culture and another country’s culture are not the same, what will be happen?

After I arrived in Australia, my friend came to my house and asked if I would like to go to a national park. I agreed and went with my family. When I arrived there, some things seemed strange for me.  I had never seen things before. I saw wo men playing a musical instrument called the pipe. They were walking in the park.  When I saw that they were wearing the skirts, I felt shocked immediately.
In my country men never wear skirts.
