Non-Verbal communication:
When my family says hello and goodbye we
tend to kiss each other on the cheek and
men shake hands.
As Hispanics, we like to hug and we are
very touchy. We don’t know “personal
bubbles.”
We also talk with our hands to express
ourselves.
Foods
Peru has been the number 1 country
for cuisine for many years.
I eat a lot of Peruvian food. Ceviche
would have to be my absolute
favorite, even though I love it all.
I used to have a lot of biases and prejudices but with traveling, I have learned to
put those aside and learn to embrace differences. I have also learned a lot from
teaching. It taught me so many things I didn’t know about people and children. I
am not saying I am never biased or prejudice but I consciously try to stop myself
or learn about the subject to change my own opinion.
Short-Term Goals
