Ziplining is my ultimate favorite activity to do whenever and wherever I go on vacation. Despite your cultural differences, ziplining can be a great pass-time and one way to have some family bonding. You can, also, meet new people (guides or fellow families) from around the world and educate yourself.

In this picture from Spring Break in TN, I (Audrey Mulgrew) am on the left - yes i am upside down - and Ashley Berg on the right -  also upside down.

These are my best friends and they bring many cultural differences to the group. We all share, basically, the same cultural view but they are always presenting new ideas or obsessions around the world.

I (Audrey Mulgrew) am on the left, Rachele Cameli is in the middle, and Ashley Berg is on the right of the picture. We all met at Cass Junior High School and have become best friends since.

Photography is a beautiful form and expression of art. Culture and diversity can be represented in numerable ways in photos, and can educate so many people.

I took this picture a few years ago in Colorado of a hummingbird sitting on a hummingbird feeder.

Social Media is taking over our lives these days. I have multiple social media accounts that I use to pass time, text my friends, listen to music, watch shows, and post pictures or hype up my friends on their own pictures. These apps allow anyone to communicate with others of distinct cultural opinions and differences.

Pets can be raised and trained from all different cultures around the world. Owners could also be of any culture and still own these animals. My neighbors, of various cultures, also own dogs of different breeds.

These are my two dogs - Odin (pure-bread german shepherd) (2 years old) and Hannah (chihuahua and pug mix (rescue)) (5 years old).

Illinois, as well as the whole United States, is very diverse and allows people of various cultures to live here. This whole state has shaped people's behaviors and interactions on a daily basis due to the cultural makeup of its citizens.

This picture is from Chicago, Illinois from a few years ago on Easter.

Softball has been one of my favorite sports and pass-times since I was in elementary school. Many cultural different girls play this sport for fun. Softball, as well as other sports, are not subjected to only one culture or skin color; it is very diverse and open to anyone really.

This is a picture of me batting in a game a few weeks ago on the Hinsdale South Junior Varisty team.

I love to try various cultures of food and analyze how much different dishes can taste and look like around the world. The United States incorporates diverse cultural opportunities in everything, but for now, in foods. The dish in the picture is a Hawaiian frozen yogurt but made only out of bananas with toppings such as mango, pineapple, strawberries, coconut and caramel.

I LOVE traveling. It is my favorite thing ever to do and I am so grateful to be able to vacation often. When traveling, you can meet multiple people from cultures all over the world, if you are either vacationing to another country or just see a fellow tourist.

This picture is from Oahu, Hawaii of December 2020 at one of their many beautiful beaches.

Families can be all one culture or often many different cultures combined. In my family, we all follow the same culture, but all of our neighbors follow other various cultures that we respect.

This is my family: Susan Mulgrew (Mom) on the top-left, Gary Mulgrew (Dad) on the top-right, Ellen Mulgrew (Sister) on the bottom-right, and finally, Audrey Mulgrew (me) on the bottom-left. This picture was taken at a luau in Oahu, Hawaii of December 2020.
