What happens to Americans when they go abroad? The practical aspects of this question seems to be particularly pressing at a time when nearly two million Americans are living overseas and the number visiting foreign places (voluntarily or involuntarily) is increasing each year. However, reliable knowledge about the fate of these people is hard to find. We do have a number of impressionistic accounts in which the concepts of culture shock and acculturation stand out, but systematic research organized by appropriate theory has hardly begun to throw light on this subject. This paper, in reporting on the adaptation of a small group of American sojourners in a large city in northeast Spain, takes a small step in this direction
