MY FAVORITE CARNIVAL MOMENTS

                     THE "CIPOTE MARIMONDA"

 One of my two favorite carnival moments was being part of the "batalla de flores" as a marimonda. it was really fun, I had an awesome time with all of my friends, we dance a lot and also walk a lot.

the journey was quite long and tiring because of the sun and all the dancing; we had to be encoraging the viewers all the time but eventhough all the above, it was an unforgettable experience for me.

                

                       BEER FESTIVAL 2013

After the batalla de flores, me and my friends went to the beer festival, we were really exited for all the artists but specially arcangel.

I was really tired but we were all happy to be there so we endure all the day, after all the presentations, we had to walk like 5 miles to get a taxi, as we were a lot of people we dispersed at the exit of the stadium and only a few ( including me) walk until we get in a fast food restaurant, that day was really amazing but also exhausting, the next day I wasnt able to get up .

Tinariwen’s Iswegh Attay

Tuareg culture in the video seems to be very peaceful they what to show the world another way to solve the problems thru music and thats really important.

knowing the meaning of the video and whatching all those images made me realize the objetive of the lyrics, his music its not for a group of people, its for everyone but i also understand how they what to give hope to their people and thats very admirable.
