Palenque

Palenques talk about same themes like being slavery, and their history but the music is more fast and have  free flowing movements. They sing happy songs about them and tell their storys whith the dancings showing what they are.

Personal culture

My hobby is chatting with my friends. Since I got internet at my house when I was about 14 years I've been talking with them by messenger and more recently "Facebook". I spend a lot of my time on the computer just to talk with them and thanks to this, I have met many very important people in my life. It has shaped my personality and I can be myself and knew more music that I like and people with whom I share tastes and have taught me a lot about them, and growing tips with them making me more sociable person and it cost me personally because I'm be very shy.

Economic Empowerment for Women

I would lend to Blanca Isvelia money because I like what she does, and it's a popular product in Barranquilla, also she got experience on the website Kiva, her loan was already all repaid, that means that make good business. This time she used to get great discounts on materials so she can earn more money and that money she earn, would be for her children's education, which I think is very important because I know it is very expensive and difficult to pay if you want to have a good education for them.

Kenyan Matatu Drivers


1. How are matatu drivers treated in his experience with the BBC? 
2. Do Barranquilleros have the same negative opinion of mototaxistas as the Kenyans have of matatu drivers?

1. They was the protagonists of the story, they were treated good, the police stopped they five times but couldn’t get anything more from they because of the cameras, so it was a good day for they because despite of the problems they have a guardian angel and they can get extra money in their day.
2. Yes, people just see the bad part of the mototaxistas, they just think in the mistakes that they comited, transit accidents, but they don't see the other part of the story and don't "walk a mile in another man´s shoes".
