International Student Culture Shock in Israel?

I'm just wondering what kind of culture shock would an International Student (say from Asia) experience the first few months or years in Israel?

Any South East Asian / East Asian student in Israel who would like to share your experience?

also, how much money would a decent meal cost (not in a fine restaurant, but say if you bought at an average cafe or hawker food)? how much in terms of Israeli currency and also convert to USD?

thanks a lot for tolerating my curiosity.
 
Israel is purely a third world country, with a people's mentality to match.
I am not going to get in to this, but imagine that:
There are many jew-only roads, shops and neighbourhoods in occupied Palestine.
Jewish people have the strange habit of throwing rocks to anyone who is light skinned or blue eyed.
Do you think I am making this up?

The British couple had to spend more than a week in the intensive care after this purely jewish tradition against all of the fair skin people.
This is one additional hobby of these persons

The culture shock will come mostly in the form of Israelis' impoliteness.

The cost of meals can change from city to city. If you're going to Tel-Aviv a meal in a cafe can be about 60 Shekels (about $15). In other cities it's cheaper - almost half of that (35-45 shekels). If you buy falafel on the street or just a pastry with a bottle of water or soda at a university cafeteria it's much cheaper, costing about 15 shekels (about $4).
