Join Lawan to travel virtually through three distinct European countries and explore how geography, language, politics, and daily life shaped their identities over time. We'll compare "past vs. present" Norway, Belgium, and Switzerland, looking at cultural traditions, historical turning points, and the ways modern society has transformed or preserved national character. Expect engaging visuals, guided discussion, and time for questions and shared reflections on personal experiences.
