They were given this task to work on: What is culture?

You're walking down the street. You see a friend of yours and you run towards him. You hug each other tight and you kiss his cheeks. Τhen you have a small talk and decide to go for a coffee together. You find a cozy place and sit there. The waitress is quite patient and waits for your order. You finally order 2 greek coffees. You drink it slowly and after some hour, you pay (of course you leave a tip) and walk out the shop. What's next? Food of course! You choose the best restaurant in town and you eat meat and drink some wine. Of course you dance when you hear your favourite song. The days passes and that's what you do with many friends, that's your daily routine! That's the Greek daily routine. Culture is a way of living and it includes habits, food, dance and tradition. Every country has its own way of living, which is affected by the culture.

Culture is the people’s “way of life”, meaning the way the do things. At length culture is writing, religion, music, clothes, cooking, art, behavior, knowledge of a country. Each country has different cultural activities and cultural rituals. Culture is more than just material goods, that is things the culture uses and produces. Culture is also the beliefs and values of the people in that country. Culture also includes the way people think about and understand the world and their own lives. It is also a powerful human tool for survival, but it is a fragile phenomenon.  It is constantly changing and easily lost because it exists only in our minds.  Our written languages, governments, buildings, and other man-made things are merely the products of culture.
