MY FAVORITE 

CARNIVAL MOMENT

I don`t celebrate carnivals but i had the opportunity to be invited to the Beer Festival, so I went to this concert with my boyfriend and my friends, and i think that was a excellent moment to be relax and tried  to pass a good time. Also a family member went to Barranquilla because he had some business to do, so i showed  him a part of our culture and how people celebrate it.

1. What do we learn about Tuareg culture from this video? 

I learn about this video the Tuareg culture, we can see the different scenes where they have the opportunity to show to people importants aspects that define them. We can learn about their deserts, the way they prepare tea, also the song is about love, pain, fire and how they mix those things with making a glass of tea and i can deduce in the part they say about being a bird that those people are nomads

      2. Keeping in mind what you learned from this interview, how does seeing the visuals within the video and knowing the meaning of the lyrics give us a deeper understanding of Tuareg culture?

      When I saw the video i  imagine most of the culture those people want to show in the song, with the lyrics and also the rhythm the songs that usually can sing in this culture. The meaning that they give to the things and how they identify with it. It`s a way they express what they feel and also how they live, manners and the way they wear.

1. Why was Barranquilla chosen?
I think Barranquilla was chosen capital of culture 2013 because has the requirements to get that distinction . As Barranquilleros we know that the city works harder to be involve in a lot of aspects of our culture and how people see us like a city of tradition , people define us because of our culture and it is an excelent view that people have about us.

2. Will Barranquilla receive any of the economic benefits Liverpool hoped to from being named a cultural capital?
The distinction gives to Barranquilla a lot of economic benefits but  also  can let us to promote Barranquilla  around the world  in some channels, for example  Antena 3 and Discovery Networks. This opportunity permits us to show the world our culture and all the qualities that difene us. It´s a benefit that coincides with the celebration of the 200 years of the city and we can project Barranquilla to the world.
