If a catastrophe would strike my home, the three things I would take which would remind me of my culture would be: family pictures, folkloric music, a folkloric item.
I would take family pictures because it would remind me of who and what we did. Remember all the great times we had back in our home. Remember the places we went to.
I would take folkloric music
because it will remind me of our beautiful music from my home. Music is something that I grew up with, I remember doing plays in school where we danced our music.
The third item I would take are folkloric item such as one like these

or something like these which is a Peruvian textile blanket. My reason would be because it would keep us warm wherever we went and will have a part of our culture with us.
If I am given the option to keep only one item, It would be a very hard decision to make but I would keep my blanket because it would be something representative about my culture. Our memories would always be kept in our minds and wherever we would be, we will make new ones.
By doing this exercise, it reminded me when I came to this country for the second time at the age of 16. I remember bringing a folkloric backpack and a hat in the plane and wearing them both. For me it was so significant and special. Up until now, whenever I get a chance I like to buy or order things from my country or ask my family who travels back and forth to bring me items I can put up in my home.
