Simple Life



In the last year with the globalization, the life is much accelerated, and we have neglected costumes like make the dinner, now the people only eat in the restaurants or fast food.
Like this there have been many changes,trying to simplify our life, but we don´t know how beneficial it is. Sometimes some things truly help us like technology in electrical appliance; for example, the washing machine, it really saves us time and is very useful, but also it has disadvantages, like the costs the electricity, the bill can be very high. Like washing machines exist many kinds of electrical appliances that help us and harms us too.
Other kind with which we simplify life, and we use a lot, is to use the blackboard in our university; for me this service help us a lot in our courses, and I think it is beneficial for the environment, because with this we recycle, and we help the world, and also is a comfort for the students.
Respect to the food, our diet has changed a lot; as I wrote in the first lines, now we don´t complicate, only we eat fast food or in restaurants, and this is very detrimental to our health, it is ok if you eat in this places one time in the week, but every day no.
I know that simple life is better in many aspects, but we should choose the good things but many costumes are detrimental to our health.

Storytelling



The storytelling is an art to tell stories there can be many kinds the stories for example; terror or funny ones. Who practice the storytelling should have many abilities for the story becomes interesting, and the people that listen imagine each character, and the different ambient during the story. The storyteller uses different type of sounds with the voice or applause, also walks in the auditorium, and imagines all whit his or her words. I think the culture of the storytelling has been lots a lot, now many parents do not tell stories to their children at the night, they do not have time for their children and that is very to the tell stories is something to share in family and enjoy together. We should preserve this culture, and supports the people who want to professional storytellers with those us don´t lose this culture.

Tourism




In the world, the tourism is very important in many aspects like economical income or to travel and see different places.

Costa Rica is very famous for our tourism. In our country exists many and beautiful places. Many tourists of all the world come to Costa Rica to search adventures or have relaxing vacations, there exist many types of tourism like adventure tourism which you can enjoy in Monteverte to practice canopy, also in Turrialba you can practice the rafting. Other type is eco-tourism, when you see the nature, you enjoy the peace of the trees and the birds and others species, in many National Parks you can enjoy that. And the rural tourism is to meet the cities in the country, in our country is not famous as places like Rome or Barcelona, but there exist tours like this in San José.

Many people in Costa Rica make a living out of tourisms, they own hotels or places.

Some day, I will travel to Europe, and visit many places like Madrid, Rome, Paris; all cities. This continent is very famous for the attractive places in all world, and for me it is a dream to achieve.
