When entering a new country, culture shock can be a debilitating problem. A person could experience a range of feelings from frustration to anger. This problem can be so severe that some would refuse to accept the newly introduced culture and resist integration into the local society. Lingo immersion can help users who would otherwise isolate themselves from the rich culture that surrounds them just because of this phenomenon.
The flow and communication of information of the culture could counter this obstacle. Such available information can help adjusting people ease into the new location whether that be knowledge from the surroundings or from the local people themselves. The goal of Lingo is to lessen the symptom of cultural shock and alienation within a new culture by providing societal information that would be available to any local in that area. It makes the user independent, secure and comfortable as a traveller in a new environment providing societal information that would be available to any local in that area.
