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.*

*Example purposes only, can't say I've ever cottoned to herring of any sort.

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:

Tweaked:

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.

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

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 exotic cultures to the fish they'd like for dinner.

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:

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 Greek mythology to the fish they'd like for dinner.
