CP #1 - Janire


Date/Time: 1/15/2016, 12:30-2:00 PM
Location: Sweet shop
Topic discussed: this is the first we were meeting, so we introduced each other and talk about our countries (such as people’s lifestyle, food, politics and economy).

Cultural and/or linguistic topics you and your partner learned:  I learned so many things, especially about politics, so it was very enriching. My cultural partner explained me that they have a king in his country and he is the one who makes decisions. Also, it is amazing the fact that the king created an artificial island just for himself to create a mansion.

As for my country, I told him we have a king in Spain, but it is not like the one in his country. We are in a democracy and people are the ones who make decisions.
I also learned that they have their own calendar because of the religion.
