I do love learning about culture, and peoples though, very fascinating. I recently had to do a seemingly endless, mindless chore, so I put an audiobook on my phone and spent the time listening to "Customs of the World - Using Cultural Intelligence to Adapt, Wherever You Are." It is what Audible calls one of their "Great Courses". I really enjoyed it and learned quite a bit about cultures around the world. I would sit down with this gentleman anytime, and listen to him about his way of life. Do you think that is curiosity or being nosy?<br />Donna/Denali Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10084071043127970610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717926498377706091.post-30863260725773658542016-07-27T12:39:24.285-07:002016-07-27T12:39:24.285-07:00Yes, pain is what comes to me too!

It is a big part of their culture and identity and it is a magnificent art form over there as well.
