SURVEY

Q1 What are your thoughts on how people sleep or deal with tiredness in foreign countries where you have lived?

When I lived in Japan, it seemed most people were overly tired; deprived of free time and sleep time. It was interesting to watch people doze off on the train and then suddenly, as if by magic, wake up just as they arrived at their station. How did they do that?

CULTURE SHOCK

Read the responses and mark the statements true or false .

I did a year of study abroad at a university in Belgium. It was pretty tough because I had to work hard at my French to be able to keep up with the rest of the class. I often stayed up late studying, so sometimes I would fall asleep in class. One day, one of my teachers got really upset with me and woke me up. He said, “If you’re coming here to sleep, you might as well stay at home!”

I’m an engineer, and I was posted to the Tokyo branch of my company for three years. From time to time we had to make presentations to potential clients. The day before, I always made a point of going home early, in order to get a good night’s sleep and be as sharp as I could on the big day. But my Japanese colleagues always stayed extra late on those occasions. That always shocked me, but I’m pretty sure they felt the same way about me.

LOOKING FOR PATTERNS

CULTURAL PATTERN A: Give your all In these cultures, it is admirable to work or study to your physical and mental limit. This means that you may sleep little at night, and rest wherever and whenever you can.

CULTURAL PATTERN B: Manage your energy This cultural value is about getting a decent amount of sleep, and maintaining a regular bedtime and wake- XS WLPH LQ RUGHU WR EH VKDUS DQG HɝFLHQW IRU ZRUN RU studies.
