I have traveled to Ecuador (2018) and USA (2019), when I was there, I have the opportunity to have small talked with some people, learned about their culture, customs and traditions, that was a good experience, but I have a problem, I don't speak English well, so I had to communicate with gestures and it was funny. In that trip to the USA I had very few opportunities to spoke with strangers, in Ecuador, it was diferent, I talked with more people who understand my lenguage. I also had the opportunity to visit the chimborazo, a volcano located in Ecuador, the culture there is a little different from the rest of the country, but it was a good experience for which I am grateful and with which I was able to connect with nature.

When I was a child, my family and I where to Amazonas because is a pretty place, and I've shocked by contrast with the city and the culture of there, because they recycle too much, in many parts they didn’t have light, it rains all days. In Amazonas I’ve been in an island full of monkey, I remember that we were to an island, that calls the monkey island, it where a bunch of freaking monkeys that wants food, and that was kind of cool but still shocked that there is an island with a bunch of crazy monkeys. Also I remember that I've been fishing in a river were are many dolphins, we were a wide there just fishing and doing kind of small talk with the guides, the last thing I remember is that, we were in the downtown, and my fathers were greeting the guys that were there, while, me and my bother have hunted a reptil that was there, I don't remember which animal was, but I'm pretty sure that was a reptil. that's it.

When I was at the Barranquilla dance academy, I had the opportunity to interact with an American teacher, I was able to learn about his culture and customs, we also had a small talk about his passion for dance. In the dance course there was a connection of dance styles and that produced smiles in the students, thanks to this, the daily greeting was common among us, as well as some gestures to communicate with the deaf-mute companions.

When I was a child, my parents took me to Venezuela, at that time the economy was not as deteriorated as it is now, the situation was just beginning, I met many places there, but I was very surprised with the prices of food and the big lines that had to be made to pay for any product and in my curiosity I decided to engage in a small talk with a person of that country I asked him why these things were happening, he explained that the country was going through a bad situation because of his mandate the president who is in power. Another thing that caught my attention was the culture and gastronomy there, it is very varied. I have an aunt living there and I was surprised by a tradition she had, which was to make orange cake every time people from other countries came to visit her.

A few months back, I was in New York city, and I took the train to go to my work place. It seemed to me that I got lost, so I tried to get help from someone else in the train. Clearly, It has not been the first time I have talked with someone from another culture. Then I start to have a small talk with a stranger, which I felt very confident with due to the fact that I have spoken english for a few months already living there, even though sometimes before I had to comunicate with gestures. So, moving on with the conversation, we both came to realice that both of us were lost. Then we steped out of the train, asked for directions in the streets and finally we got where we were suposed to be. Turns out, we also worked at the same place.

Another method he implements is to use gestures to be able to communicate with foreigners. Finally something curious that happened to me was that, a Chilean said a very peculiar word to me: "cachai",  and I asked him: "what that word means?"
He told me it meant: "You understand".

I have never traveled to the United States, but fortunately I have traveled to other countries such as Peru and Panama. In Peru, for example, the culture is different, even the food is different. I was able to know Machu Picchu and some things of the Inca tradition.  I never had a small talk with a Peruvian, because I did not have the need. I hope to continue getting to know new places and different customs.
