By that, I mean expat spouses coming from very different geographic and cultural backgrounds. One scenario where this is regularly illustrated is with ‘mixed marriages’, which are fairly common among expats. Oftentimes it is on a subconscious, seemingly almost instinctive level, that we say or do what is familiar and what we’ve grown up with – even if, upon further adult reflection, it may not be the best or only way. These influences are often family and friends, and as such, we tend to be products of the cultures in which we grew up. To varying degrees, our opinions are formed from influences encountered at a young age.
