Fair! I was just looking for a cheap word to make “culture” a bit less… short. ;)

Good points! Also, exotic is in the eye of the beholder -- my love of salted herring is not exotic in Amsterdam, but definitely unusual in Cairo.*

Hello everyone,
Here is the proposed social media for "Browsing Wikipedia While Sailing The South Pacific: The Goodall Family's Experience Offline Browsing" blog post.
Blog post: https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/11/14/sailing-south-pacific-with-wikipedia-o...
t: No Wi-Fi? No problem. A family at sea tells us what it's like to use #OfflineWikipedia:

Refining a bit to add some exotism ;) and to include the Kiwix Twitter handle:
No Wi-Fi? No problem. A family sailing the South Pacific tells us how they use #OfflineWikipedia: https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/11/14/sailing-south-pacific-with-wikipedia-o... @KiwixOffline
f/g: The Goodall family spends most of their time at sea. Without Wi-Fi access, traveling to foreign lands can be daunting. But with #kiwix the offline Wikipedia software, the family looks up everything from culture to the fish they'd like to eat for dinner. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/11/14/sailing-south-pacific-with-wikipedia-o...
Tweaked:

This reads quite oddly (possibly because "culture" is a far shorter clause than "fish they'd like to eat for dinner". How's this:

Good point about "culture". But I don't really see where the post talks about exotic cultures among its examples, so I would modify further:
