Crossing Culture - Chris Whitler / Beth Morgan

Hello all, Chris here around the fire bowl introducing our next batch of posts.  We will be sharing stories of crossing culture.  As I look at the site stats for our first month, most of our readers are, as expected, from here in the Western Hemisphere.  However, there are a few surprises in there too.

China?! Moldova?!  Sweet.  And the majority of you are Mac users which does my heart good.  Of course, all you PCs are just as welcome (Talk about crossing cultures...sheesh!).

Well, whoever you are, wherever you're from and whatever operating system you use, welcome to our little site.  I am excited for what these posts will bring.  One of the first submissions we received around this topic was from Beth, who is studying abroad this semester in France...learning Spanish and Portuguese!  She sent me a collage from some of her travels which I will leave you to enjoy along with a question to ponder.

What have you learned or how have you changed by encountering another culture?  Your comments and stories are welcome.
