LOVING BARRANQUILLA'S CARNIVAL

        

Hi , I want to tell you a little of my carnival expirience. Barranquilla was full of party and nice events in carnival and it made so difficult try to study, so I decided to take some time in order to enjoy my culture, I was in some parades as "la batalla de flores" y "la gran parada" there were wonderful dance group with beatiful dresses. I was as well in one party ,in which one were invited some foreigns who were very exited at the party, some of them were Brazlian and they said our carnival was coolest than their carnival, because common people can take part of it. I was so proud of my culture and I was happy on my free time.

      1. What do we learn about Tuareg culture from this video?  

     It is difficult for me talk about this video, because it is not easy to understand , but I can watch that in  this culture to drink tea is a way to purify their heart and soul.

      2. Keeping in mind what you learned from this interview, how does seeing the visuals within the video and knowing the meaning of the lyrics give us a deeper understanding of Tuareg culture?

`   I think that music and tea is the way in which one this culture try  to purify their heart and to forget  pain ,  fury and passion. Those things are  a way to talk about policy and found a changed.
