Aimed at dispelling common misconceptions, it gives practical advice on what to expect and how to behave in unfamiliar situations in order to help you discover for yourself the warmth and humor of this tough, resilient people.
Have a more meaningful and successful time abroad through a better understanding of the local culture.
