Abstract	My goal in this article is to share my experiences as an academic in an institution of higher education in the United States. To a large measure, I provide insight into a world that contains multiple complexities for those who have come from a different shore. These experiences were based on my not, at first, understanding the prevailing cultural rules of the new context, with some experiences being humorous and others less so. This article presents lessons that were learned over the years that have allowed me to continue to strengthen my understanding of myself as a "stranger from a different shore." (As Provided).
