 Living in another country, there will always be challenges that come my way. Sometimes they’re food related (is this vegetarian? Or uh oh, where’s the bathroom! come to mind), sometimes they’re culture related (whoops, shouldn’t have said that!), and sometimes challenges have nothing to do with being in another country, but I have to deal with them while living in a context other than what I am most used to. But I have luckily grown quite accustomed to living in Morocco. I am used to “going with the flow,” as many situations I have come across demand of me. There are constantly new challenges that I face, particularly ones involving cultural miscommunication, which allow me to learn about the nuances and subtleties of Moroccan norms and expectations. But most importantly, they help me to learn about myself and my own cultural expectations and assumptions. Not a moment goes by when I am not actively learning.
