More and more people are travelling, emigrating, having to flee, working abroad or simply chatting on the internet. Cultures meet and yet remain strangers to each other. Sometimes dangerously foreign. But the "clash of cultures" is not inevitable: we can all only win if we understand why others tick the way they do - whether it's my flat neighbour from Africa or my internship in Australia, Bahrain or Costa Rica. Sarah Lanier has lived on all five continents as an internationally active teacher and lecture traveller for Youth with a Mission. Over many years she has discovered and learned the basic principles of how cultures interact with each other. Whether you are planning a stay abroad, simply want to broaden your horizons or are looking for new ways to be understood by your neighbours with the Good News - you should use this experience potential!
