What world city or town would you like to visit? Why?
I would like to visit Paris, France because it is a city full of light and culture.
- Laurien Angelista, Curacao
I would live to visit Paris France because I had the opportunity of studying basic French and learning about French culture and history intrigues me. I would like to visit the different Cathedrals and learn more about its history. I am also interested in their art and learning much more of their culture.

Tokyo, Japan. For me Tokyo is a city of towering buildings filled with endless possibilities. Its districts offer a labyrinthine maze of streets crowded with restaurants, cafes, pubs, gaming centers, karaoke clubs and pachinko parlours.
- Avanti Page, Sri Lanka
Do you like to visit Iloilo, Philippines for cultural immersion?
Yes, I would visit there to identify myself on the people, customs and culture. I believe that the more knowledge of each other's cultures helps us to become a more nurturing and loving world.

A big Yes, visiting Iloilo in Philippines will be an honor, I would love to enjoy and learn lots about their culture. And Mary jean has been a wonderful person.

If you can make a nickname for your country, what would you call your country and why?
The nickname I'd give Trinidad and Tobago is 'The Mix' simply because we are diverse mix with different cultures, traditions, races and creeds that make us one nation. We accept all and refuse none. We are a people that is kind and loving and embracing. We also are a people that is open to other cultures that's are not ours.
- Jevon King, Trinidad and Tobago
(Happy Naija) because in all situation or crisis we still find a way to remain happy.
- Queen Celestine, Nigeria
That would be Dushi, Aruba has so many things to offer mostly importantly the love and warmth we share to all those that visit our island. Dushi means sweety or sweetheart in English.
- Digene Zimmerman, Aruba
Ghana is a beautiful name for my country so GH is that nickname I will prefer it cos datz how we call it.
-Abena Appiah, Ghana
My nickname pour Haiti is... Cherie Doudou!!! because of the kindness of my people, their smiles, the beauty of Haiti is a "Perle Rare"
- Christie Desir, Haiti
I might steal South Korea’s nickname ‘Land of the morning calm’, because of Sri Lanka’s spellbinding natural beauty from picturesque mountains to clear waters and its splendid tranquility, particularly during sunrise. You would experience this first hand if you have ever woken up to a view of Sri Lanka’s finest beach destinations.
- Avanti Page, Sri Lanka
What food best represents your country?
It's Mote Hin Gar you should try. Mont Hin Gar is a traditional Burmese dish. It is some kind of a fish soup with rice noodle - very fresh and very tasty and healthy food. I bet you won't forget Myanmar ever once you try it.
- Sharr Htut Eaindra, Myanmar
The food that best represents Trinidad and Tobago are far too many to count I can give a few examples, our callaloo, pepper pot, ground provisions and salt fish, our dhalpree and buss up shut with all the different spices as well as our doubles and bake and shark. We have a mix of culture in our food also, so it's difficult to point out one food that represents Trinidad and Tobago.
- Jevon King, Trinidad and Tobago
The food that best represent us is affang soup with eba(garri), that’s because all tribe love the food and enjoy it and the food looks like our flag lol (green and white), if you visit Nigeria, Calabar to be precise please order for it and I would happily prepare it for you if you don’t mind.
