# data[].attributes.body
Evident he is adjusting to the culture even in the slightest because before he was expressing his thoughts about the Chinese out loud to locals. Now, on the bus, he instead says it to himself and the camera crew instead of the passenger next to him.

# data[].attributes.body
He said "Do people really believe that here?" questioning fortune telling before going. He then started slowly believe them when they mentioned a heart problem which has been something common in his family. He seemed shocked that they brought it up.

# data[].attributes.body
He's so ignorant I just sit back and laugh. I can't believe how rude he was to the locals who couldn't pronounce his name. He's so disrespectful. Just runs his mouth to be honest.

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
not open-minded to different cultures

He is mentioning many stereotypes of Chinese culture has. He asked is the fish that were in his room were pets or food.

# data[].attributes.body
some ignorance is present when he complains about no english.

# data[].attributes.body
He seems very close-minded, and reluctant to learn about other cultures. He thinks that the way he does things is the only valid way.

# data[].attributes.body
Going through frustration and annoyance phase as he is complaining that nobody can understand him and thinks they don't know what smiling means.

# data[].attributes.body
Compared the Chinese language and their writing to English just based of preconceptions

# data[].attributes.body
Ethnocentrism- He just seems very uncultured, he's very judgmental about Chinese culture and is assuming the worst about their practices.

# data[].attributes.body
I think people react to culture shock in many different ways. He reacts to culture shock by making jokes about it.
He also calls things that are different "not normal"
He also seems very judgmental of others. When he was talking about the food that other people were eating, he called it "mental"

# data[].attributes.body
he doesn't give himself enough time to take in the new culture and bluntly states what he thinks in a close minded pov

# data[].attributes.body
ethnocentrism- the way they write as if it were backwards
judging what they eat he says, I just don´t understand why their eating all of this.

# data[].attributes.body
He judges the food that locals in the culture find normal and doesn't even try to understand the lady eating scorpions or the man eating a fetus or look at the food from their perspective on why it might be delicious. -Ethnocentrism

# data[].attributes.body
He was trying to teach them how to pronounce his name and they weren't able to. He also demonstrated frustration when they called him "Kar" rather than "Karl"

# data[].attributes.body
ethnocentrism - he says some of the things people in china do are weird like what they eat and their alphabet.

# data[].attributes.body
He doesn't seem to know anything you know? He seems to be judging their culture based on assumptions and not actual knowledge he is just assuming for the most part

# data[].attributes.body
cultural greeting

# data[].attributes.body
ethnocentrism- He says they do one thing and the Chinese do another it gets weirder and weirder.

# data[].attributes.body
By that guy explaining how the lifestyle is much different or "weirder" than what Americans are doing right is plain ethnocentrism of just being in his own world and culture.

# data[].attributes.body
Ethnocentrism prominent Says chicken is orange in china town, eating octopus, seen as deferent than his typical English cuisine, says they do everything weird

# data[].attributes.body
-He doesn't seem open to others lifestyles. For an example he talked about Chinese culture and how the food is very different and "weird".
- I feel at this point he recognizes the differences from his lifestyle and how people in China live.
- When he's about to eat he uses the word "normal" as something he's used to eating. That seemed very much like he as taking a step back from what he has learned.

# data[].attributes.body
He seems really sheltered. I don't typically understand why he's so worried about toad. Just don't eat it. He doesn't typically step out of his comfort zone and because of it he sounds rather ignorant. I laughed a little too hard when he said he felt like he was being mugged. His facial expression was so funny.

# data[].attributes.body
He doesn't seem to try to assimilate or adapt to the culture, instead of eating any of the "weird food" or any of the multiple weird things that are on a stick he decides to eat a bag of chips.
He doesn't understand some of their way of life or how they feel towards death because he finds it weird that one would want to be constantly reminded that they are going to die. He feels this way because they make their coffins before they die so they don't have to pay to have it done.
He makes jokes in order to make light of the situation like how he jokes that the lady doing the massage must've wanted to be a magician and she decided to do massages with her gloves on fire.

# data[].attributes.body
he seems very small minded and not open to new cultures/ experiences

# data[].attributes.body
He did not participate in cultural realism because he was judging the other culture when claiming it is weird to eat orange chicken and toads.

Toads
