Evidence: My view on Colombia

The first thing to keep in mind is that Colombian people are open and outgoing, much more so than
the North American people. They are people who love fun, who are kind and even a little
unconcerned when compared to other types of thinking.

Colombia is one of the most optimistic and happy countries in the world. The enjoyment of life is
easily seen thanks to the dance, the parties of any social celebration.

The culture retains many traditional elements. One of the main areas where this is true is primarily
in the strength of family. Throughout the country, the central block of society remains the family.

For Colombians, the best way to live everyday life is by interacting with their relatives. Family
gatherings and social events are regular, and will always give priority to the family than to friends.
This can be somewhat complicated for foreigners who want to integrate into Colombian life.

Religion is reflected in its language in everyday life. If you travel to Colombia you can hear phrases
such as 'If God wills', 'May God bless you', 'Thank God', etc.
