About Culture Square

Meet Leke

I the creator, Leke  was inspired to start Culture Square  when I realized that I had a passion for learning about different cultures and wanted to share this information with others so that there is more understanding in the world about different people and cultures. With all my travels and speaking to other people around the world, I have realize that a lot of people especially in the US know very little about other parts of the world. That is why I decided that I will create some sort of town square where different culture can came together, people can share information  about their culture, I love to start by showing some of mine to my amazing readers.
