Imagine realizing that everything you were taught about politeness, personal space, and even shopping no longer applies. In this conversation with Shannon, we talk about how living abroad—especially in China and Spain—has completely reshaped our habits and expectations. From using QR codes to give money to street performers, to feeling awkward saying “please” and “thank you” too much, to the never-ending tug-of-war between needing personal space and learning to let it go, it’s a real look at how cultural norms can clash, evolve, and even make you laugh at yourself.
