Identity and Diversity
When considering travel to any country, travelers may want to consider aspects of their identity and how these may be perceived and treated in the local culture. We encourage travelers to do some research into social norms, cultural mores, and local practices before departure. Travelers will want to participate as much as possible in the host culture and should be prepared for the experience, which can be both personally challenging and rewarding.
