Colombia

I want to learn about Colombia very bad because my dad is from there. He never told me much about it though. Luckily, I learned about it in school. I got my information from my Spanish teacher, Mr Neito. He shared many facts with me such as: flag colors, food, and culture/tradition. He also told told me about the similarities between Colombia and America. I believe that these things are very interesting and that you should know them.

The first thing Mr. Neito taught me about was that they loved food. He said there country is diverse, so different people eat different food. Some people who live near the ocean mainly eat fish, while other people who live near plains eat crops. This goes out through the whole country.

Another thing my teacher taught me was their flag colors. He said they were yellow, blue, and red. After that, he talked about their cultural events. He told us that their culture traces back to Spain. He then said they were mainly Catholic, and they have festivals every year.

Lastly he talked about how Colombia is much like America.  He said they have some of the same holidays, and they operate things the same like weddings.

Mr. Neito, my Spanish teacher, taught me many things. I learned about Colombia culture, food, and flag colors. I also learned about the similarities between America and Colombia. I hope you learned as much as I did throughout this essay, and I hope you also enjoyed it.
