MY OWN PERSONAL CULTURE
"Relajaaadooo" (Relax) I think that's the word you would normally hear me say if you are stressed. At this moment that's my personal culture. I think an important fact that has make be like that is the music I have listened to, since I was a child. Classic music, vallenatos, porros, and many other colombian music has been part of it. You cold be asking, why is this body shaking music could be related to being relaxed? Here´s the answer. Most of colombian music narrates love, friendship, bussines and many other stories and as alla stories they have a happy of a sad end. But what makes if different is the connection that notes have with nature, with peace and evolution. when I listen to this music it makes me remind where I come from and also whare I want to be. but I always have in mind that things go in the right moment, and that things instead of making us suffer, are really making us an advice of how to act in other situations. Things evolve, they don't stay quiet ans steady all of the time. sometimes things that seem to have no solutions, have plenty of them. So be relaxed... But! Not the relax that doesn't makes a thing for its life, is the relexation of beliving that if you continue doind the right movements, thing would get better.





Yes! I'm proud of my country and its culture. I can't quit of feeling my heart beet with its music, and makin me think hiw much I want to see it develop and to be a better place for all to live. right now i'm relaxed, doing my best in my studies to really help my country in the fueture.

  1. Hi Sara! I like what you are talking about. Our Colombian culture is a relaxed culture. But not in the wrong side. I am saying that Colombians are happy people, we have problems but we see the good part of them, we work hard to achieve a better future for our family and for ourselves, and we still have time to get fun, enjoy with our relatives and friends and be relaxed. So our culture influence our lifestyle.

  2. I'm sure I've listened more than just one "Relajaaadooo" from you per day! Even if I'm not a huge fan of folkloric music, I know that feeling you are talking about. It's all about having no regrets, no worries, no anything... it's just you and the music. I actually enjoy a lot listening to this type of music from time to time, since it truly makes you want to shake your body.

    I think that if good DJs did a nice mix of Colombian music, it would turn out soooo great.
