There are also many cultural differences between Uganda and the U.S.. One example is how the two nations celebrate independence day. Uganda celebrates with a military parade with jets flying just over the tallest trees in the area. People also dance and sing during this celebration, they also spend a lot of time with…
There is a lot of difference between my culture and the USA. And I really love my culture because I grew up on it. Now that I am in america I know American’s culture. When I compare these two cultures, I can see that they are not similar. For example, In my culture most of the time you don't eat alone, if you eat alone people will not be happy because most of the people in our culture eat together with their family or friends. In the US if you eat alone or if you eat with someone it is OK for people.…
Another of the reasons why people travel is for business purposes. Many people especially executives and businessman have to travel daily, weekly, or monthly to conduct business. This is a big part of travel especially with international companies that have multiple divisions. Some people tend to travel to explore in the name of science. Since there are still places in the world that have not been explored or may hold interest, scientist travel or hire someone to explore these uncharted areas. One of the last reasons that I’ll list as a reason why people travel is for religious reasons. There are many different places in the world like Israel or The Vatican that hold religious meaning to many people in the world. People often travel to these places on spiritual pilgrimages or other religious reasons.…
Every country has it own culture, and every culture has their own way of communicating; therefore, growing up as a Yoruba in a Nigerian household (Africa) is not an exception. As a Nigerian living in Canada, it is a mix of culture for me but, I will say I am more of the Nigerian culture than the Canadian because of the household I live.…
Through travel we learn about ourselves and others. Camping taught me that I do not like mosquitos, Quebec taught me people from different cultures can be uncompromising, and in South Carolina I learned I’m afraid of the ocean.…

Another difference that can be seen between Indian culture and American culture is that the Indians love stability where as the Americans love mobility.…
Most people think Africa is a country and I occasionally hear people saying it, Africa is not a country but indeed a continent divided in many countries. Ghana is located in the western part of Africa sharing boundaries with Burkina Faso to the north, Togo to the east, and Cote d'Ivoire (or Ivory Coast) to the west and the south to the gulf of guinea, it’s a country full of culture and moral believes. The Ashanti Empire is one of the biggest in the history of Africa and is noted for its cultural celebrations linked with the golden stool dated back in 1896 which still exist till today; it serves as a symbol of togetherness to its people, and stands for the widest expanse of political authority which…
I have always had a knack for traveling. Since a young age I have found comfort in going to places I have never been. Embracing the culture and questioning why things are done a certain way and exploring the incredible world that I am surrounded by. It brings me peace just being somewhere I have never been. I think it is important to be put in situations that you might not be familiar with and learn how to adapt, how to survive on your own. It’s important to go to unfamiliar places and meet unfamiliar people.…
Indian Culture vs. America Culture No two cultures are the same, but they to have similarities. Indian culture and American culture share many things; however, there have vast differentiations. Over time, I’ve come to recognize that the most different cultural aspects are marital customs, religious beliefs, and community values. Whenever I go to India, I get the chance to first hand experience the distinctions between the two cultures.…
Travelling the world is another way in which worthwhile learning occurs. Travelling the world allows you to see how other people around the world live. When you see how other people in other countries live it can really let you see how fortunate you are and allows you to appreciate the things you have. When you see how other people live it can also open your eyes to see how you could be living your life instead of how you are living your life. You can also see how hard other people work and it can inspire you to work harder in your life. You can also see other cultures or religions and you can appreciate other people’s way of life. Travelling is a way in which worthwhile learning can occur.…

All these places and more are full of wonder and…
Differences between cultures are wide-ranging and there are also many differences among cultures that are geographically close. The noticeable differences are from the uniqueness of specific cultures or of an individual influenced from belonging to his or her family culture. Families have tremendously strong connections for an individual to remain within and follow the customs of the culture he or she has been raised.…
- Travelling unravels the beauties and beasts of an unfamiliar world. It’s a kaleidoscopic adventure with a spectrum of colours. Whether you are letting your palate choose your destination or your unquenchable thirst for adrenaline, it is always an experience that awakens our inner child by offering us new, “first-time” experiences. Ask anyone, and they’ll tell you that the best time they ever had in their life was the trip they took right after graduating from college (if they were lucky enough). I can’t stress enough how important I feel it is for more young people, who have sufficient funds of course, to travel and see the world around them. Start thinking outside the norm a little bit, get out of your comfort zones and start exploring!…
Why do we travel ? As Pico Iyer mentioned in his article “ Why We Travel “ Travelling gives us the advantage of losing all of the stress around; moreover, it lets us enjoy a deep break. In addition, travelling uncovers the other cultures with a way that hearing or reading about cannot cover. Further more, travelling is more about feeling younger and reliving your life, it is about taking life slower so you could enjoy every moment in it. Iyer explained in his article how living the experience is totally different from hearing or reading about it. Iyer used different ways in his article to convince the people how travelling could change their ways of looking at the world. Iyer’s article is about how travelling could help us gain more knowledge and get more educated. Iyer was effective in bringing the thought of how valuable voyaging is. He utilized the rhetorical appeals to deliver his opinion to his audience. However, he made some fallacies while delivering his opinion.…
