In our ongoing series on the European Championship 2024 we look at similarities and differences of the countries playing. ⚽ France and Poland share rich culinary traditions and vibrant cultural celebrations. While France features diverse landscapes such as the Mediterranean coast and the Alps, Poland is characterized by expansive plains, dense forests, and the scenic Carpathian Mountains, each contributing to distinct cultural and environmental identities. France 🇫🇷: Cheese love: France is home to over 1,200 different types of cheese, making it the country with the largest variety of cheeses in the world. It is said that tasting all the French cheeses would take a year if you tried one every day! 🧀 Baguette law: In France, the term “baguette tradition” is protected by law. It requires bakeries to make their baguette on site using traditional ingredients and processes. This regulation ensures that the traditional French bread culture is preserved. 🥖 Different time zones: France has overseas territories in the Caribbean and the Pacific Ocean that belong to different time zones. For example French Polynesia has a time zone that is 10 hours ahead of Paris time. ⏱ Poland 🇵🇱: Pierogi power: Poland is the land of pierogi - delicious dumplings filled with everything from potatoes to sweet fruit. There are so many variations that you could eat a different type of pierogi almost every day and never get tired of them (or maybe you would, but it would be a delicious tiredness). 🥟 Vodka variety: Poland takes great pride in its rich tradition of vodka production. With a wide array of types and brands available, Polish vodka caters to various tastes and occasions – from festive celebrations like weddings to everyday moments. 🍸 Salt Mine spectacular: Poland is home to one of the oldest salt mines in the world, the Wieliczka Salt Mine. The mine is so impressive - it even has an underground chapel, built entirely out of salt. 🧂 How do you think each country will represent themselves through their team? 🌎⚽ #globalmobility #hrconsulting #championship #france #poland #culturehackers #culture

🌊 The Islands Region Highlight 🌊 >> https://hubs.la/Q02CLqvW0 The Islands are an unofficial whisky-producing region off the coast of Scotland, including Arran, Jura, Mull, Orkney, and Skye—but not Islay. Although the Scotch whisky regulations consider them part of the Highlands, these islands have a unique whisky character all their own. Historically, the Islands were hotspots for illegal whisky making, thanks to their convenient locations for smuggling materials and finished products. 🌿 Character of Island Whiskies: • Highly varied in flavours due to their diverse locations • Generally smoky and peaty • Briny notes reflecting their coastal origins Explore the distinctive and varied whiskies of the Islands. 🥃

Review: Bearface Canadian Whisky Wilderness Series 01: Matsutake

New Kiwi's often have researched the NZ culture, however, it tends to be "information" supplied by a Govt entity or course, which can be very 'death by powerpoint" or formal. If you look to our very own "pop-culture" or Kiwiana as its known, you'll find more meaningful insights such as this old DB Beer Ad from DB Breweries, which is on point related to: - Kiwi work ethic as shown by how the shirker (3rd beer drinker) is treated - Our cultural hero's - the ANZAC, the Rugby player and the Farmer/Tradie among a pub full of NZ icons - That religion is not the cornerstone of our culture, rather the pub and having a beer. Picking up of these and other nuances is a real education. Its not that all Kiwi live or behave like this exactly or literally, but we all appreciate the humour and the themes are congruent with our culture, behaviour, thinking and humour. We hope you have a good laugh, while getting the concepts to loosely apply to your understanding of Kiwi culture. #Culture #Kiwiana
