šŸŒāœˆļø Reverse culture shock is SO real — everyone hypes the idea of ā€œgoing back homeā€ after living abroad, but no one talks about how jarring it really is. You think you’re just slipping back into your old life, but news flash: you’ve changed, home has changed, and suddenly you’re the foreigner in your own country.In this episode of Wannabe Americana, I dive into the messy, funny, and sometimes traumatizing truth about reverse culture shock. From little things like food, fashion, and social norms, to deeper stuff like identity, friendships, and belonging — we’re unpacking it all.šŸŽ§ Whether you’re a returnee, immigrant, third culture kid, or just curious about what it feels like to ā€œgo backā€ when nothing feels the same… this one’s for you.šŸ’¬ Drop your own reverse culture shock stories in the comments — I want to hear them!šŸ‘‰ Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the bell so you don’t miss future episodes of Wannabe Americana.Keep up with us :
