I think it is way to easy to assume our places and cultures that we're familiar with will be comfortable or appreciated by others.
I met a former Amish person who left that way of life once. One of their biggest challenges was explaining to others that because they chose not to be Amish ... doesn't mean they want to be like <insert the given person's preferred culture and lifestyle> or that they would approve of it or like it.

That's a very lonely place to be.
