People can learn about different cultures by learning a foreign language, reading, watching documentary TV programs, traveling abroad and having culture encounters. During the last month, we have had two culture encounters, one with a Texan woman and the other with two German women.
It was really interesting to hear from them particular aspects of their culture, such as living style, socioeconomic activities, education, traditions, costums among others. I didn´t know many things about German people, besides what I studied realted to World War I and World War II. After this particular encounter, I could eliminate many thoughts and beliefs I had from these people.
Another way, how we can learn about other cultures is by cooking. So that a look to this site. I haven't thought of this before.
