Answer: She is experiencing culture shock .

Explanation:

What is a culture shock?

A culture shock is a shock that is experienced by an individual when they move to an area which is different to the area where they original live.

A person may become disoriented due to the uncommon things that they may find in that new environment or new country.

It may be the way people live , the food they eat , their values , customs and beliefs that may not be familiar to a foreign individual .

In this case Kristina is probably not used to seeing dog's being eaten and it became a shock to her which may be normal to people of Cambodia as they are used to it .
