🍴 You Are What You Eat – Taste the World, One Dish at a Time! 🌏

Want to explore different cultures through food?
Looking to make new friends, practice your English, and connect with students from around the world?

You Are What You Eat is a cross-cultural food exchange program organized by the Office of International Affairs (OIA). International students from different countries will introduce and share traditional dishes from their home countries, giving participants the opportunity to discover different food cultures, traditions, and stories through food.

This semester, we are hosting 6 sessions, featuring student teams from different countries and taking you on a culinary journey from Asia to Europe. Each session will offer a unique opportunity to enjoy international cuisine while learning about the culture behind the food.
