  1. Be more specific in your objectives. For example, how do you plan on learning more about others cultures?

  2. I like the direction your objectives are going to, Sisay: accommodating a mutually beneficial conversational setting. No. 5 "understanding"
    What's not clear yet is how you will do these five things.
    cheers

  3. Number 5 is the best, I believe. Because if you did not make it clear when typing up what you did in the interview, then noone will understand but you. Good job.

  4. The sequence of your objective is good. When you say "how it feels to join a different culture and environment", are you talking about the conflicts and obstacles in general?

  8. I like the fact that you will make it seem like you are having a conversation instead of an interview. It will definetly benefit you in your research.

  11. Great work! You might want to consider working more on the cultural differences in the general questions, and do some research after you finish the conversation. Keep in mind that our objective is to learn another culture and analyze it through the interview.
