About Kulture Switch

The inspiration for Kulture Switch took root in the vibrant neighborhood of Eagle Heights in Madison, Wisconsin. Surrounded by neighbors from Puerto Rico, China, Russia, Brazil, and many other countries, I quickly recognized the transformative power of cultural exchange. Whether it was hearing the melodic tones of Puerto Rican Spanish or catching the enticing aroma of Indian spices wafting through the apartment hallways, each experience further enriched my understanding of humanity and the beauty of our diverse world.

As time passed, the seeds planted in Eagle Heights blossomed into a profound passion for cultural immersion. This journey led me to Puerto Rico, where I immersed myself in the culture my childhood neighbors had shared. From there, my travels expanded to Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Colombia, Peru, Thailand, the UAE, Israel, Egypt, Switzerland, France, and Spain.

It was during these travels that the true inception of Kulture Switch began. Upon returning home, I became acutely aware of how disconnected the Americas truly are. While the United States is a diverse country, many of us rarely venture beyond our familiar surroundings to experience the rich tapestry of cultures available to us. We talk about inclusion, but how often do we genuinely engage with another language or explore the music of a different culture? 

At Kulture Switch, our mission is to bridge these cultural divides. Whether it's our unique clothing line, engaging Independent journalism, or our culture filled events—we aim to bring the beautiful cultures of the Americas closer together. Your support means that you believe in the idea of Kulture Switching, and that you too see a day where we are able to unite the Americas.

Join us on this journey of uniting the people. Together, we can create a world that celebrates our differences and highlights our similarities.
