Coming together and sharing a meal with others is the most communal thing in almost every place in the world.

Food is all the matters around the world and it brings us together. It brought me once I participated to a Potluck Party. It was definitely an awesome warm-up idea for exchange students.We gathered the dishes from our hometown and shared our food cultures through our dishes. We had lots of fun during this event! We have many vital moments in life either preparing or sharing a meal.

Especially the Festivals in different countries. Festivals are days which get friends or family together. We have the reunion dinner in Chinese New Year Eve. In Western countries, they also have a gathered dinner in Christmas Eve and they celebrate Thanksgiving with a turkey feast. All these reunion dinner not only for blessing and eating food with the one you loved but provide an opportunity for family members to come together, strengthen ties and having a great family time.

In conclusion, no matter to create the memories or to keep in touch with the people we care. Meals shared with others is the first thought come to our mind. Therefore, food has the great power to build a global village which enhances the confirms of belonging with others and makes great effects that brings friends, families, colleagues and people in other backgrounds together.
