taking off your shoes when you enter a house is a common practice here in canada. and coming from the philippines, i have to admit that it is something that i am not used to. walking barefooted on bare floors was something that i had to get comfortable with.
prior to coming here, i bought a lot of thick, white socks for us to use. when we got here and realized that we'd be using those socks to walk around the houses we visit, i realized that i should have brought black socks instead.
filipino homes, more often than not, have slippers for their guests to borrow but non-filipino homes would not have those.
so it took awhile for me to get used to it. i have to admit that it is only this year that i got comfortable walking barefooted.

Hehe. I really find this entry funny. I guess it really is an issue when it comes to living somewhere you are not accustomed of. But it sounds like your are doing well over there. :)
