Hello beautiful people!


@kemmyb here 👋

Welcome to the New Cross Culture's Daily Curation where we bring you some amazing posts from members across communities of different cultures, focusing on but not limited to bilingual posts.

The Cross Culture community, was created by @whatamidoing.

It is a community that supports authors who make posts that share the realities of different cultures first hand, as well as different perspectives and experiences. We look for ways in which cultures can become crosscrossed and enlightening while going beyond stereotypes associated with certain culture.


The authors whose articles have been chosen for this week are all writing content of high quality, which focus on the various topics:

  • All bilingual posts
  • Posts in regional communities or tags
  • Posts related to language or culture
  • Posts in our cross culture community

Cross Culture's daily bulletin aims to bring to light all authors whose articles would otherwise remain unnoticed and lost in the platform, therefore we tend to reward authors who create quality posts, giving them a fair chance to establish themselves on the platform.

Howbeit, that's only the half of it!!!

After careful selections, our curators which come from diverse cultures will single out the most outstanding articles among all those curated to create a weekly shout out to the authors from the Top posts of the week.


📌Therefore, here are this week's awesome authors and their posts:

Since October 31 in the morning, I started at home the assembly of the altar of the dead, adapting a little more to the Mexican traditions. This altar is made in order to honor the dead of the family where food, candles, flowers and objects of daily use of the deceased are offered as offerings.

Funny African Customs #4: About Greetings by @nevies

LcTxR7u1XKabaf2rRAavg5nG6iLEhos6pFCYbmksPrreHCNh8CqAc1opBN1hou2HDKPbN1k2rxevVe5YmXmjJVGiqLU6JLdPea7SjVmLsaB9HSXBJn4nUWUxWG9nWgX8L5hCab85mHayMe47uGyTQwAxE.jpeg

In many parts of Africa respect for one's elders is a very big deal and one of the ways you show this respect is by greeting your elders when you see them. All these are very true about Nigeria where I live. The Yoruba tribe of Nigeria has the most interesting form of greeting, though...as a male you have to go all the way and lie down...other tribes of Nigeria don't really have interesting ways of greeting, they simply say the word or sentence used for greetings the same way you say 'good morning' for English, for example.



Isuom Ekuku (Scarlet Eggplant Stew), My Mother's Recipe by @esther-emmanuel

Many of us in Nigeria call this vegetable 'Yalo', 'garden egg' or 'gowta' for the northerners. When I first learned of the real name, I was really impressed. I mean if someone asks you "Would you like to have some Scarlet Eggplant?" You would be curious. Since I learned and researched about it, I have made sure that a day does pass me without me eating this vegetable unless I couldn't get it in the market.
