What is Reverse Culture Shock? 

Welcome to 'The Why Matters Podcast,' where we explore life lessons, things we often take for granted, and everything in between, gathered from our decade-long full-time travel lifestyle. Each week, we'll delve deep into the 'why' behind the choices we humans make in life and the positive results that stem from a strong sense of purpose.

In this episode, we discuss our plans to temporarily move back to the US. This is a 12-month plan, and we anticipate experiencing reverse culture shock. This occurs when someone resides outside the country for an extended period (which applies to us!) and decides to return to their home country. Listen to this video to understand our “Why” for making this decision and our concerns as we return to the US.
