Moving to another country is always tricky. You are not just leaving your friends and family but also starting a new life full of unknowns. Things even get more challenging when you encounter a culture you know little about. This is exactly what happened to TikTok user Morgan, who recently moved to Spain from the United States.
While learning more about Spanish culture, Morgan frequently found herself in funny and unexpected situations. But instead of being discouraged, she embraced the awkwardness and used it as an inspiration for her TikTok channel.
Realizing that many people experience the same, she started documenting her “culture shocks” in a series of amusing videos. This includes being baffled by the late dinner habits of the Spaniards or how primary healthcare is free for everyone.

Her relatable content quickly became popular on the platform, encouraging her to continue sharing the growing pains of moving to Spain.
“In general, Spain is a beautiful country overwhelmed by its rich history and culture,” she explained in a recent chat with Bored Panda. “The people, food, and traditions are unlike anything from any other country, and it’s been such an incredible experience so far.”
