Abstract: Starting from the premise that an individual’s response to the surrounding environment unfolds within the framework of their cultural background, the paper attempts to detect the way in which the Romanians’ individuality as a people influences their openness to intercultural communication, both in everyday life and in business. For this purpose, the study approaches the concept of interculturality as a space where nationally inherited patterns of thought and behavior intersect and, hopefully, merge into a consensual common ground defined as ‘the third culture’.
