The practice of cultural orientation through e-learning is one of the achieved success of our technology use, as culture is said to be a form or stage of civilization of a certain nation or period, this might imply that we are the culture and learning the culture is learning ourselves. This paper is trying to bring close to our vision the need for the cultural experience management system, through which people that have the knowledge of another culture can share and document their experiences of that culture. A cultural knowledge system can build a vocal community with human understanding that will help in, use of cultural signs, selection of words for communication, and guide us in our physical appearance to a certain community, with respect and preservation of human integrity from each society. The system will assist in bringing up a civilized young generation that will be good ambassadors in any geographic location they found themselves. Based on this, we may say, a student that goes to Erasmus program can have a lot to share regarding to a culture in a different perspective that is likely not to be the same with a person who learn about the culture through papers or by attending classes. Culture is taught and learned and shared, these can be better accomplished through the management of such experience.
