Foreign VS. Foreigner

21% of Americans own a passport, and 15% of them actually travel overseas. Some (fewer, I hope) Americans who do not travel overseas have the tendency to dislike people from other countries. These people usually have little respect for other cultures, and usually know very little about their own... It can't be comfortable for these people to travel overseas and actually become "foreigners", and worse, can't speak a word of the local language...

Now that's Foreign!

  2. I'm sure it's everywhere. I think we are born with ability to adopt, and we do that through out our lifetime. Unfortunately some people consider what they have adopted from their culture is more superior than other culture has to offer. ..Very sad, but true. Talking about heritage, I also had worked out something to discuss about that:) The videos are AWESOME!!!! Thank you!!
