A3: in every way. Especiallyas I’ve learnt part of the languages, which helps you see life differently. You can’t go back #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A3: People are nowhere near as different as some would like to believe. Doesn't matter where you're from, what language you speak, how you pray, etc.; everyone loves a good meal, laughs, sunsets, and all those other little things that make our days worthwhile. #CultureTrav

A4: America gets a lot of mixed opinions, mostly derived from pop culture and more particularly, my hometown of #Chicago is often seen as dangerous which I find quite funny (and it gives me street cred when I travel!) 😉✈️ #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A4: I am from India so people have a very common perception of India being a colourful country with alot of cultures existing together! I think more in the form of conservation. #CultureTrav

replying to @RyanTravelsEats @RyanTravelsEats @Nicolette_O I’ve been telling people I’m Canadian as well. Or just let Jackson introduce us (he’s a Kiwi and has major street cred for that!) #CultureTrav

A4: Well that's easy! And it's true, for some months! But Canada is so extremely diverse, and I hope people think of us as such. #CultureTrav

replying to @Travel_boomer @Travel_boomer @travelcricket8 True. One incident doesn't define the whole country. People are individuals with different interests, views, and so on. Travel helps shatter stereotypes and perceptions that form. #CultureTrav

replying to @MomsWanderlust @MomsWanderlust Ask 10 people what they think of Paris, London, NYC, whatever....and their POV is colored by so many factors: age/race/budget/weather/time of year. I hate it when someone says they "hate" NYC -- and all they did (!???) was blunder around midtown w other tourists #culturetrav

replying to @three_whales @three_whales @Nicolette_O NYC was the same for us. Loved it but hard to ignore reality off the beaten path. #culturetrav

A5: Sometimes! When I travel with my guy, he's brought up interesting details (architecture, infrastructure, etc.) that I may have noticed but didn't focus on, and vice versa. I enjoy hearing these different perspectives on what details stick with people! #CultureTrav

replying to @CaitlinKellyNYC @CaitlinKellyNYC @Pinkzenjoy @travelcricket8 I talked to someone on the weekend who was afraid to go to Strasbourg bc there was a terrorist incident there. I tried to explain that these isolated incidents affect maybe a dozen people in one particular block, while millions don't even notice #CultureTrav

replying to @travelpantspair @travelpantspair @Nicolette_O My ex was Canadian and we visited a lot, so I could wing it pretty well if people knew Canada or asked questions, which definitely helped. #CultureTrav

@Nicolette_O A4 Cuba is often reduced to, and perceived as ‘beaches, cigars, 1950s cars + salsa’. Our region (Baracoa) at the easternmost tip of the island shows Cuba as a wonderful nature, adventure and ecological living destination.
