(Culture Workshop)
Date/Time:
Thursday, February 11th, 1:00-1:50pm
Location:
CIES (Lounge)
Topic
discussed: Project for country comparisons,
explaining the major features of each country.
Cultural
and/or linguistic topics you and your partner learned: Although
one of our group members was absent, we still got to discuss some of the basic
ideas we had for what to talk about/put on our board. This involved discussion
of hospitality culture in Saudi Arabia, and what the equivalent would be for
the U.S. It seems that both have a fairly similar concept of hospitality, but
it was interesting to hear about the specific details that make them different.
We also discussed the idea of common hobbies, such as taking trips to the
desert in Saudi Arabia, and famous/popular foods such as dates for Saudi Arabia
or oranges for Florida.
