Reverse culture shock, being shocked coming back to your own country

Have you ever gone outside of your country only to return a few years later? Did some things that you used to do or see no longer seem normal to you?

This was my experience coming back to the US after 3 years. Everything felt so big and commercialized. It was really strange! There were many things that I didn\'t like and would ideally get rid of in the US. It is interesting because I had the exact opposite response a few years earlier. I wanted desperately to go back to the US (to eat Mexican food) after about a year of being away. But now when I came back I realized I like Europe better.
