People Are Sharing The Culture Shock They Experienced Moving From The East To The West Coast (Or Vice Versa)

We asked the BuzzFeed Community to share the culture shocks they experienced after moving between the East and West Coasts. Here’s what they had to say:

1. “I moved from New York City to Los Angeles. Having the same weather every day and having to drive everywhere was a culture shock. I had no idea what time of year it was since it was always 70 degrees. I also had my license in NYC but pretty much never drove except occasionally when visiting my hometown. I had to buy a car in California and I remember the first time it rained. I had lived in LA for about four to five months without rain, and then it started to downpour while I was on the freeway. I freaked out and had to pull over because I had no idea how to turn on the windshield wipers.”
