An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow
confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.

My Neighborhood


In my Neighborhood are many Latinos. They come from different countries, and most of them are from Dominican Republic, Mexico, Ecuador, and Colombia. I don't too much about their custom and traditions, because I come from Paraguay - South America. In my country we have different traditions. Most of the Latinos people are Catholics. In my culture the Holidays are usual catholics holidays.

In the USA the people think that the Latino are all the same, because they speak Spanish. For example in South America, there are 13 countries. Only 9 countries speak Spanish; and the other speak Portuguese, French, and English. It is wrong think that all the people that speak the same language have the same culture and custom. For that reason I can't talk about the culture in my neighborhood, because I don't know too much about that.
