Description:
The walk aims to introduce the Persian culture, and I intend to inspire people to talk about cultural differences, and how to embrace them and move toward a more inclusive community. This walk is a good opportunity for people to talk about their cultural backgrounds as well as getting to know one of the oldest cultures in Middle East, a country called Iran!
Walk Leader:
