1. What do I want to learn from my culture?

      My family and I come from El Salvador. Even though I’ve been there and my parents talk to me about it there is much I don’t know. For example how come the currency of El Salvador is different from USA currency. I really want to find out how different El Salvador was one-hundred years ago from now, I am guessing I wasn’t anything alike. I haven’t completely been all over El Salvador, so I want to find out the best places to visit there. When I traveled to El Salvador I try to locate where the President lives but I can’t find it, so it will be interesting to see where he lives. When I went to the beach in El Salvador and when I went swimming, I realized that the water in El Salvador is salty and hot, and unlike USA that is the complete opposite. Every flag has its own design and reasons to why it is like that. So I want to find out why it is as it is. When I tell my family I want to get a job in El Salvador they tell me that I shouldn’t because the pay is much more less over there than USA, and I can never quite figure why that is. Every July, there is a fair and a party in El Salvador, I don’t know what they are celebrating so it would be very intersting to  find out. In every country that is latino/hispanic they celebrate a girls fifteenth birthday which we call Quineanera, but why? and how come it can’t be another age like 16, 17, 18…????                 

So even though you may think that you know everything on your culture think twice because there is alot more we need to know!!!!!!!!!!!
