Cross cultural experience

[Laura Major]

I don't really have any idea about any cross-cultural experiences having to do with Farsi but I do know one from Latin America. I remember that when I was in the Dominican Republic a lot of things were influenced by American culture. It was weird being there and hearing words in English such as "cool", "nice," or even funnier when my mom would ask me if I wanted "corn flay" or Cornflakes for breakfast. I don't really know if that qualifies as a cross-cultural experience but it was definitely a mix of the two that I was familiar with.
