Well, I don't know what exactly it taught you, but for me it taught me a list of things:
- how to work cohesively with people with dramatically different ideas than me
- how to appreciate and participate in other cultures
- my actions and the results are dependent on me
- social systems are drastically different and are dependent on your cultural background

- the importance of social support, and the significance of belonging to a community
These are just a couple things I learned from moving cross-culturally throughout my life.
