After reading the excerpt from Erin Meyers’ book, The Culture Map, write a detailed paragraph or paragraphs (meaning at least around 250 words) in which you answer all of the following questions (in other words, address every part of the prompt below in one paragraph):
Discuss an experience in your life of which this reading reminds you. This could be an experience of “cross-cultural communication,” your own experience of moving between low-context and high-context cultures (if you’ve travelled, studied abroad, or if you’re not originally from the US you likely have many of these experiences), or even something you’ve read about, seen in a movie or television, or witnessed in real life. Explain this experience and then answer the following questions about it: How does this experience relate to the reading for today? Find at least one quote from the reading that connects to your experience, explain the quote, and its connection to your experience. Finally, did the reading make you think differently about your experience or give you a new understanding of it? Explain.
