Blog Post #3: Different Cultures

Since living in the United States for one year and a half, my views to Americans had change. However, I kept some views. For example, the reading have showed me that Americans care for kids education. They give emphases on public schools and they give opportunities to a lot of kids that needs education. Maybe they have exceptions, but they still having a great public system. In contrast, Venezuelan public education is going from bad to worse. Classrooms without desks, blackboards and teachers have a very low income and they usually don't go to class. If you want a good education in Venezuela you have to assist to a private schools, which are relatively much cheaper than private American schools. Although, what happen to those kids that don't have the resources to pay a good education?.
I will identify myself with the myths that South Americans have a lot of familiar interactions. We are socially ''collectivist'' that means we usually like to reach our goals in group and for the welfare of the family. In comparison, Americans are more ''individualism'' they usually reach their goals for self welfare. 

With the picture above I try to show how important my family is for me and that even if we have a long distance between each other, we still having a very strong bond and I will stand and represent them wherever I am.
