“Avoid making too many comparisons. Acknowledge and note new things in your cultural discovery process without going into the process of comparing them to what you already know, expect, and have experienced in your home [or other] countr[ies].. It is much easier to observe and learn from a culture when you aren’t constantly making comparisons and judgments.”
“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.”
~Marcel Proust (French Novelist and Author, 1871-1922)
