In August 2022, we took an emergency trip to the United States to help Amelia's family. After spending a month in Texas and several days in Kansas, we now understand what reverse culture shock means.
We left the United States 5 years ago to start a new life abroad in Ecuador. The last time we went back to the USA was over 3 years ago before the pandemic
Lots of things have changed since the pandemic, but even the things that stayed the same seem very weird to us now.
In this video, we'll talk about the 22 things that were very shocking to us as Americans after being gone for so long.
