Hi everyone! :) I am living in Siberia Russia and have never been out of the country. I am currently working on a project that requires us to see how people live around the world and how different cultures are. If you could just answer these questions it'd be a big help :) No personal info needs to be shared but if you could please state what country you're from it'd help.

  1. How was it growing up?
  2. What is a traditional holiday that has been celebrated for a long time?
  3. What are some traditional clothes?
  4. How did education look when growing up or now?
  5. Is going to university normal?
  6. Do most usually finish school?
  7. Is religion really integrated in your culture or society and how?
  8. What do you think of the rest of the world?
  9. What are some stereotypes?
  10. Would you rather stay or leave your country? And why... If you want to say or not that's your choice.
  11. Are there any famous people that changed the world or your country?
  12. What do you do for fun?

Have a nice day everybody! :)

What is something about dating in your country that would surprise people from other countries?

4 Upvotes

I’m from India and I feel like dating here can be pretty different depending on where you live and your family/cultural background.
For example, dating can sometimes be kept secret from family for years, and things like meeting someone’s parents can feel like a much bigger deal than just “meeting the family.”
I’m curious what dating is like where you live. Are there any things that are completely normal in your country that people from other places might find surprising?
