<human>: I am in college, and I was assigned an international student for a roommate, which is pretty exciting. All I know is that she's from Sudan.

When I got home the kitchen smelled just awful. Do you think she would be offended if I used air spray?
She's wearing a scarf, but I don't want to just assume she's Muslim. Can I ask?
I tried striking up a conversation but she politely brushes me off every time. Normally I would be asking her to come out for drinks with the other roommates but we haven't talked for more than a minute total. She has quite a heavy accent.

Google is just turning up a lot of racist junk.

Can you provide a brief overview of the text?
<bot>: Got assigned a roommate from Sudan, it doesn't seem to be getting off on the right foot, what should I know about Sudanese and American differences? What would be a good way to break the ice?
