Good afternoon teacher and classmates. I am going to talk about my project "Spain".

Spain was founded by Felipe II, in fifteen hundred and fifty-six. Spain is one of my
favorite countries, in various aspects such as food, public transport, when meeting
people and in traditional music.
FOOD
Spanish food is one of the best; its most used ingredients are olive oil, cheese,
tomato, rice, sausages, onion, among others. Paella is one of the most outstanding
Spanish foods, and there are several types of paellas.
Eating paella with chopsticks or hands isn't normal for Spanish people. Eating paella
with forks is very normal for Spanish people. Also, that it is a way of respecting
their old custom because it has a symbolic value.
A Peruvian food that can be visually similar would be "Arroz con mariscos." Its
ingredients are seafood, rice, spices, shelled corn, peas and more. Peruvian people
eat their "ARROZ CON MARISCOS"with a fork or spoon.

Street food in Spain is sold in a different way, as seen in the image it is sold in a
food truck. Spanish people prefer to eat out their homes with your family or your
friends. And in the other image you can see how the well-known Peruvian
Anticucho is sold in a small improvised stall with a small grill and small chairs. One
of the behaviors of Peruvians in food is that they ask for yapa and they add chili
pepper to all type food.

TRANSPORTATION:
The most used transport in Spain is the bullet train. Bullet trains are made by
RENFE and since its creation, transport was introduced in Spain. This transport is
too fast that when wanting to arrive at a destination averaged long, it does it in less
time. It is not normal for Spanish people to be standing on the train. They give up
their train seat to people with disabilities, pregnant women and the elderly. Paying
with rechargeable cards is normal for them.

In Peru, combis are used as transport, and really these types of transport generate
a lot of traffic and it is complicated at the time of arrival to a place. Well, we must
hurry up to reach our destination on time. Is the only way. Paying with coins is very
normal for the people.
Observe a small video of the comparison of transport in Peru and Spain.
The behavior of some "cobradores" calling customers was observed.
MEETING PEOPLE:

When people meet in Spain they do it through different alternatives. They go on


blind dates. Making parties is great for them because they can meet different
foreign people. When friends greet each other, they give each other a double kiss
and a hug. Even when couples break up, it is often due to cheating and they also
leave the friendship that was there at the beginning.

In Peru, when you greet someone, you shake hands politely or simply say hello!
People organize parties, dinners, to meet more people.

In both countries, they use the apps to meet up on dates. Some applications are:

MUSIC:

Spanish music is known and widely listened to. They go out to the streets to sing
and dance gypsy music. They even hold gypsy music competitions. The exponents
of gypsy music is the Gipsy kings band. “Bamboleo” was made by the Gipsy Kings.
It is really a Spanish cultural festival.

In Peru they carry out carnivals with music. People perform danceable polladas,
demonstrate their art in the streets with the traditional music from here, be it
chicha, cumbia, salsa or another genre. The music that represents us is Peruvian
rock, one of the exponents is Cachuca. Tricycle Peru was made by Mojarras.
Watch the following video.

In my personal opinion, Spain is a place where you can interact very well with
people. The people are very friendly and their habits seem great to me, and if we
think about traveling there we must respect those habits. For these reasons I
recommend traveling to Spain.
