This is a picture of cheese tortellini, and I choose this picture because pasta is Italian. As Is my cultural heritage is, because I am part Italian on my dads side from his mother my grandmother. Through my grandmother, to her mother, and her mother, and then continues for a long line of Italians, that goes back to Italy itself, when the first of our ancestor came over from Italy. I also, choose it, because I love to make pasta like lasagna, and many other types of pasta, and It also reminds what are cultural heritage is, and where we come originally.

This is a picture, of the Greece 100 gold Drachma coin used before, the euro was introduced in Greece in 2002. I choose, this picture of the Greece 100 gold Drachma, because on my dad side, from his father, my grandfather, he is 100 percent Greek. I, also choose it, because Greek is also my cultural heritage, and that my great grandparents, on my dad side, through his parents, they came directly from Greece to the united states of America. Lastly I choose this, because it reminder from my family came from, and to remind me that you never forget where your roots are, and that it also special because i have family that from Greece. Also, as a Greek the Drachma was important currency during almost all the time, it existed as an independent country up until the year 2002, when the euro took over the currency in Greece.
