The Multicultural Minute #11: Food!

| | Comments (0)
For me, the best part of traveling is getting to try different kinds of food. I have always considered multiculturalism and food going hand in hand. What better way to learn about a country's culture and traditions than to experience its food? And if you can't be there yourself, travel there in a book.
