We will be staying in an Airbnb rich with the culture of Morocco.

While in Morocco we will eat at "Bab El Mansour". The most historical building in the city of Meknes. The food is traditional immersing us in the tradition and culture. Locally sources food that help us take a deeper look into agrubusiness.

Eating with your left hand is looked down upon. They believe it brings bad luck so eat with your right hand. All utensils shouldn't even touch your left hand.

I heard of the show through my mom. This form of diffusion being known as contagious diffusion.

When we go out to eat it is looked down upon when you eat off your knife. People are disgusted by this because it doesn't fit their standard of table manners.

Transportation: 19 Hour drive from Luton

Staying at an Airbnb in Madrid.

We can go to the Spanish Cultural Heritage Institute and take a peak at some special Spanish architecture. To get a feel of the cultural landscape that was built in the Madrid.

If we run into a friend in Spain we would kiss each of their cheeks starting on the left cheek. You can only do this if the friend is female though.

Transportation: A 19 hour flight from Canada
Home base: Airbnb in the middle of Reykjavik.

We are taking a day trip to Westfjords to do the city walk tour to see the population distribution and how they differ from the major cities to the country territories. More people will live in the cities because they have more exposer to other places as well as typically being more diverse.

When talking to locals refer to them using their first name. Locals don't have a family name system so they can only really be identified by their first names.

Transportation: Car to and From the Circuit

We will be watching the Silverstone Grand prix. I heard about Formula 1 through the Netflix show, "Drive to Survive". This is called hierarchical diffusion. When you hear about something from a higher in society figure. In this case being Netflix.

When we go out its best we don't speak on salaries. The British see this as rude or taunting. They hardly ever speak on their salary in public settings.

Transportation: 8 hour drive from Wood-Ridge
Air Canada flight 5844
Home base:Hotel de Glace just outside of Quebec City.

We will be going to the Canadian museum of History. Where we can get a closer look at why Quebec is a stateless nation. We can see the history in full of Canada and more specifically what makes Quebec so prideful.

When we go out to eat we have to keep in mind that Canadians find it impolite to put your elbows on a table so we must respect their customs. To the Canadians it shows that you are uninterested and you don't care about their furniture either.

They speak with different slang and lingo as well as haven't words that are just completely separate.

It's considered rude to spit in public. So don't spit while walking down the streets. It's a sign of disrespect or hate.

Transportation: Flight from Morocco and Flight to Australia

We'll be staying at the Cataratas Park Hotel e Eventos. This hotel is on the Brazil side of the falls. We can look at the human-environmental interaction. How as the people we are affecting the habitat of the animals and all their natural habits. We can also see how we work around the animals and the land.

Avoid promoting Argentina in Brazil. As Argentina is right next to Brazil they are said to have a rivalry. They don't speak too much on the rivalry either.

Only a small amount of blue-green microalgae which are not noticeable to the naked eyes. We can buy products that are harvested from the water and turned into marketable products.

Icelandic people look down on people who buy plastic water bottles. So let's steer clear of all plastics. Being that Iceland is one of the most eco-friendly spots on the planet, plastics are a strict no.

Transportation: Flight from Iceland
Driving to Madrid

Staying at a Airbnb in Luton (the halfway point of the plans).

We will day trip to London on the 5 and 6th. We can explore and look at all the little intricate things that make London a world city. We can find out why London has such a hard influence on the world as well as what gives it such a powerful hold on other countries.

When traveling the city don't stare at people for too long. It's thought of to be rude. It normal means that something is wrong with them or something is happening. So look but don't scare anyone with a stare.

It's booming with the trade of culture and possibly all different cuisine.

Don't make plans on any Tuesday the 13th because Spaniards believe it is an unlucky date. ]]> 2023-05-30 23:00:08 UTC https://padlet.com/kbitetto26/syrfoy074wa56aab/wish/2609649255 E11)Mausoleum of Moulay Ismail, Meknes, Morocco kbitetto26 https://padlet.com/kbitetto26/syrfoy074wa56aab/wish/2609823294 While looking through the mausoleum we can identify all the little pieces that tell us this is an islamic originated location. We can see the bright colours and different patterns as

indicators of the culture lurking around the entire mausoleum.

The culture here is much more conservative. Women should have their shoulders and legs covered for modesty. Tight fitting clothing is also frowned upon.

Transportation: Flight from State of Paraná
Home base: Pier One Sydney Harbour

While staying in Sydney we will find that traveling is very easy. This is because Sydney has a Burgess model design to the city. It is made up of rings that make transportation and life in general a whole lot easier.

You get dresses up to go out to eat. You don't wear sweats and comfy clothes to eat because you still want to show respect to everyone working at the location.

That in the older days could have been inhabited by pastoral nomadism because you can't make a good subsistence living off the dry land.

Avoid cursing around elderly people in Brazil. It is a sign of disrespect and people don't take this light heartedly.

We can see a show if they are playing to understand what is popular.

At some swimming pools a neck to knee bathing suit is required by law. This is for modesty and specific religious practices.
