Abstract
This chapter presents the cross-cultural experience and its meaning making as studied by applying a narrative approach to the study of two expatriates’ stories. This research can be called ethnographic in nature as its intention is to provide a deep description and analysis of the daily cross-cultural experience that the two students from the Netherlands led for the period of three months in an Italian city located in Umbria, central Italy.
