'Culture' is such a broad term; 'the sum total of ways of living built up by a group of human beings, which is transmitted from one generation to another'. Having lived in inner Melbourne and travelled extensively I felt I was fairly familiar with different cultures. I had a good working knowledge of different religious beliefs, had been to numerous cultural festivals, had friends of different sexual orientations, conversed comfortably with people from different occupational and socioeconomic groups, had a vague understanding of different national dress, and had eaten lots of fabulous food from many different countries and traditions.
