I had enjoyed living in West Africa and was positive that I wanted to try a different kind of life once more before going to college. I can now say that I have lived in five countries on four different continents in the past 17 years and am proud of what I have learned and seen. I wouldn't have had it any other way.

When I came back to the U.S., I was always asked some pretty silly questions. My favorite two were "Do you ride elephants to school?" and "Do the police carry swords?" I just gave a little chuckle, answered "no," and explained that Thailand is very similar to the U.S. in many ways. A lot of kids I come in contact with have never left their home state, let alone their home town, so they don't know much about other parts of the world. I never realized how little a lot of people know about the world until I experienced it first-hand and then returned to the U.S.

What I'm trying to get at is that the world is a lot different than many people think it is. You don't really know a place until you have been there. I never realized all the things I take for granted that people would kill for in other places. These experiences had to be the best of my life and I wouldn't change them for the world.
This shows that people stereotype part of the world based on what they have seen on the media and the mixing of people and cultures can help fix some of these stereotypes.

Definition of Culture since it is important to know what you are answering.

Just a comment.... have a diverse student body, in my opinion is an asset and something that should be looked at as a positive quality (similar to having high ACT scores, or being involved in different activites). Having that specific background brings something to the table that not everyone can. It would be difficult to have an intelligent discussion about race and its affects if we did not have multiple sides of the arguement.
1. Thank you for taking me on a journey of your research. You certainly have some rich material to use in answering your question.
