Découvrez à travers des exemples simples comment interpréter ce mot sans imaginer un film d'action.

Salut tout le monde ! 
In today’s episode, I’m sharing the 3 biggest culture shocks I experienced when I moved from Serbia to France. Even though I’ve lived here for several years now, I still remember those first moments of confusion... especially when it came to la bise, strict meal times, and how hard it is to survive without a car in some cities!

Salut tout le monde !
Dans l’épisode d’aujourd’hui, je partage les 3 plus grands chocs culturels que j’ai vécus en arrivant de Serbie en France.
Même si je vis ici depuis plusieurs années maintenant, je me souviens encore très bien de ces premiers moments de confusion…surtout en ce qui concerne la bise, les horaires de repas très stricts, et la galère pour survivre sans voiture dans certaines villes !
