Best Carnival moment

I didn't go out in any carnival's day but I can say that my best moment was on saturday, I went to the cinema at Buenavista Mall. It was good because of when I was in the line to buy my drink and popcorn, there was Peter Manjarrez (the popular vallenato's singer ) and the funny of the moment was that I didn't have a camera with me or even my cell phone, to take a picture with him. I'd have liked to go to the carnival but well it will be for the next.

After watching the video I can find out that, the cup of tea and that kind of enviroment has an important meaning for them. For example, the cup of tea help them or give them some freedom, some distresful from their hardships, I think it's like when colombians have harships, most of us try to unburden it with Aguardiente or some other alcoholic beverage that calm down some part of these ones.
We can learn about this culture, how is their behavior hen they're facing these situations, how are their ways to express what they're feeling.

Barranquilla - Cultural Capital

1. Barranquilla was chosen as the 2013 cultural capital because of its positivism, his cultural environment  his international projection and the contagious atmosphere of joy. 

2. I don't think so, maybe this tittle will help Barranquilla to be known in the whole world -that's why was chosen, because of his international projection- and this will catch the interest of more tourist at this beautiful city.

An American in Uganda

1. In this story, we see two opposite lifestyle, here's the wealthy self-depending white man who is just looking for some loneliness and peace, focusing on his job. And in the other side, we see the poor black man that has got not what he needs, and to get a few things to satisfy himself, he's got to hold to ask for money to the white man for doing unnecessary home works, and always interrupting the peace that the white man wants.
2. I think the reasons are lack of understanding each other and they focus on their differences and that block out  every chance of understanding each. They are different because of the culture, education, personality and other aspects.
