Eating and drinking are an important part of our lives. Many of our holidays and traditions include food. However, what people eat and drink differs significantly from country to country. We all have our own comfort foods, we don’t all see delicacies the same way and good manners are far from universal. Food can be a fun and interesting way to examine cultural variations.

Elizabeth Vennekens-Kelly is an intercultural trainer, advisor and author. She combines her business experience, familiarity with expat living and intercultural knowledge to help individuals in multicultural settings and those relocating overseas to effectively interact in the varied situations. She wants people to enjoy and appreciate cultural differences. In April, she will guide us through a workshop on the significance of food.

Venue: Theater Hotel, Arenbergstaat, Antwerp.
Time: 10 am for coffee; meeting starts at 10.30.
