One of the evenings will be dedicated to the Intercultural Evening. You will present your own cultures – national, regional, personal or any kind of culture you feel you belong. This presentations/activity should not be just a “lecture” so try to find the most creative way to show your culture. It means that all options are possible.
A culture may be presented by a song, a story, a poem, a dance, some local special drinks, and food!
You can bring pictures, music or anything which you consider to be most appropriate to present your culture. Bring CDs of traditional/typical and party music or other things typical of your country that you want to share with us during the Evening of Cultures and during other evenings.
