I've hosted exchange students from Asia and Europe, and it seems to be kinda hit and miss with no real rhyme or reason. Sometimes they're like "oh, yeah, the yearbook, obviously," and other times it's like "the what now? But... Why?" Cultural differences are kind of unpredictable, I find. Like, the stuff you think will surprise them doesn't, but then you offer to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for them and they're like "WAIT, THAT'S REAL?!"
