Step 1: Connect with another culture
The first step to develop cultural openness is to start building a bridge between yourself and another culture. Look around yourself…
Can you see any expression of culture? Nowadays, we are lucky enough to not have to reach the other side of the world to learn more about other cultures.
From reading a book to listening to a song, there are multiple ways in which you could try to connect with another culture. If you really can’t find anything interesting why don’t you take a look at “our events”? Here you will find all the upcoming cultural events we have organised for you!
Tips: Be open to explore any kind of culture, you will never know where the cultural journey might take you. Take your time to understand how cultures vary.
Avoid: Don’t think that a culture could be superior or inferior to another. All cultures are equally interesting and amazing as each other, since they all form part of the story of humanity.
Step 2: Don’t assume it, question it!
Once you have found your connection with culture it is very important that you keep your mind open to ask as many questions as possible. 
Don’t base your intercultural experience on assumptions, base it on facts instead! Curiosity is key!
For instance, try to not use stereotypes… In fact, although stereotypes can be useful ways to deal with all the potential information about other cultures, they can be harmful.
Tips: Open your mind to the idea that culture is fluid and can change at any point. Also remember that each individual is different!
Avoid: Don’t think of culture as fixed idea! Like human beings, culture evolves everyday.
Step 3: Weigh your words
One of the core requirements for Intercultural Communication is empathy. This consists of a temporary change of the initial cultural reference to a new one. 
When your intercultural communications skills are advanced enough, you will be able to switch from one cultural framework to another. This ability is often seen in people who have experienced living in a different country for a long period of time.
Tips: Finding yourself in a different culture is a wonderful experience but don’t forget who you are! Be proud of who you are, be proud of your culture!
