Evidence: Cultural literacy around the world

 A few years ago, I traveled to Bogota for a month. I was participating in anacadem
c event, and I stayed with my cousin and her boyfriend who is from Bogota. I
visited a lot of places and I learned about their culture, which is very different that
mine. The life in Bogota is so busy and more complicated and here in the coast are
more
relaxed and many things happen because ‘aja’ People from Bogota, who are called
‘Cachachos’, aren’t as friendly as ‘Costeños’ but they are kind people.

The weather there is cool so people wear with coats and bots for the rain and their
way to talk, which have a special accent, is very different that the other cities of
Colombia.

Regarding ideologies, they are more liberal than us, who are more conservatives.
However, there are a lot of religions that are practiced because of the confluence
of people from over the world.

The food is different too; they eat some fruits than are not common in the coast like
‘Curuba’ and one of typical plates is ‘Changua’ that is a soup with milk, eggs and
bread.

How Bogota is the capital of the country is very developing regarding

transportation, education and technology. You can move on bus, cab, ‘Trasmilenio’
or on a cycle because there are a lot of bike lines so is safe move on it. Also,
youcan run into people from all the parts of the city, which are working or studying
here, so it’s a perfect place to cultural literacy of all the regions in Colombia.

 There are many activities to do every day, from festivals to concerts or politic
events, so it’s very interesting know about it.

I really enjoyed my travel and I could know more about their customs, culture,
theirway to talk and more.
