A Taste for the Local

See our Recurring Traditional Events page.

My name is Roman.

I have lived and traveled quite a bit around the world and among many different cultures. It seems to me that each culture has the same set of problems it must solve in order to survive and prosper, but each culture, because of its history and situation, has found different ways of solving these problems. I never stop being curious not only about the current culture within which I find myself today, but also about the history which has brought this culture to this point.
