Three friends in one class learn that their families have different cultures: they say hello, hola and ni hao, eat noodles, rice and bread at lunch, and wear a head scarf, a cap and a long robe. The friends hop together as good friends, the video adds that we learn about each other with kindness and respect, and it ends on the recap that there are many cultures with different languages, foods and clothes.
