KIVA

I think I will lend money to Blanca Isvelia because her idea is so creative, her product it´s interesting for me and I think I can be her client to. I think that kind of food are very attainable for people with low resources and also it is very nutritional.
And, in my opinion, the people that work with her show us that Blanca is a person who we can trust.

HOBBY

I usually play music in my house, it is very relaxing for me and funny, I play the guitar, the piano and the bass. the university makes a lot of stress so play music help to calm down for study better. another thin is that I have to order my time for my practice in may band so that makes me more responsible.

Kenyan Matatu Drivers


1. the matatu drivers are treated as if they were doing the something in the incorrect way as supporting people to take some photos and sell them in uk.

2. well, herre in barranquilla the mototaxistas are treated as bandits, but i think that here people need work for support their families and as they can´t find a job they use the mototaxism to make somo money.

Afrocolombians

I didn´t see in nowhere that in colombia exist the racism but I´m suer that exist because in everywhere exist good and bad people.
about racism I have to say that it is something taht dont have any sense because the black people give us many good things as music, carnivals (in carnival are so many things based in african culture), and the milkcoffe that all love hehehe.
So, before you treate a black person as something lower yo have to keep in mind that they are people to and you dont know if that person is better that you, so we have to be humble.
