Qallunaat 101

Article Abstract:

Some of the Qallunaat people live in wooden houses and they have a lot of social customs and manners but in fact their language is completely weird. They generally use items that are disposable and can be easily replaced as they are available in large quantities even to the Inuit people as well, hence they do not buy anything in bulk.

Shoeless in sheboygan

Article Abstract:

The practice of removing the shoes at the entrance and then enter the house is followed in the Asian countries as the dirt from outside does not enter the house. Due to this habit when the visitors are asked to remove their shoes outside, at times they feel insulted, as they do not like to remove shoes in someone else's house.
