         <description><![CDATA[<p>Continuing with the description of a tourist place, once again I talked about Cartagena, in which I had a dialogue with one of my colleagues.</p><p><br></p><p>Valeria knows this place because she went a few times in the past, I (Daniel) haven't been there ever, but I already hear good things about this place, so we decided to do a work together to show some itinerary from a person who have been there to someone who hasn’t.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>-Daniel: So… we should start, with the location, where is Cartagena located valeria?</p><p>- Valeria: Cartagena de Indias is a city located on the north coast of Colombia, in the Caribbean region of the country. It is in the department of Bolivar and is situated in a bay of the Caribbean Sea.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>-Daniel that’s great, I heard that the weather I’ts very hot, someone’s say that the climate of this place is characterized by &nbsp;being humid tropical, and the temperature range it’s between 30°C and 32°C, with a minimum temperature of 22°C.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>-Daniel: another question it’s how to get there?</p><p>- Valeria: To get to Cartagena de Indias, for a comfortable trip, if you travel from Medellin, you take a bus to the Jose Maria Cordova Airport in Rionegro, sometimes it can be a direct flight, or with a stopover usually in Bogota, then from there, you arrive at the Rafael Nunez airport in Cartagena.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>- Vale: these are some places that I like to visit in Cartagena</p><p>-&nbsp; Walled City­­</p><p>-&nbsp; San Felipe de Barajas Castle</p><p>-&nbsp; La Popa Convent</p><p>-&nbsp; Rosario Islands</p><p>-&nbsp; Getsemaní Neighborhood</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>-Daniel: And finally, Vale, what are the weaknesses of this place? Also, what it’s your favorite place from Cartagena?</p><p>-Valeria: Cartagena de Indias' weaknesses as a tourist destination include its prolonged rainy season, intense heat, and humidity throughout much of the year, tourist congestion at times of high demand, security concerns in some areas, and environmental impact and uncontrolled development that can affect the city's authenticity and historic charm.</p><p><br></p><p>While we were constructing the writing for the presentation, we presented several doubts about how to write certain words, as well as the pronunciation of these words. From my experience, one of my biggest weaknesses in English is speaking; however, these types of activities help me to be more fluent in English.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>In my free time and with the purpose of improving my English, I do activities on the internet that test different tenses, in order to remember grammatical rules and to evaluate where I can improve. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>This activity was about listening. This is one of the weaknesses I have with the language, so it is evident that although I did not make many mistakes, I did not get a perfect score.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Through this activity I was able to evaluate my knowledge about The present perfect and the past simple, for this one, it was a bit complicated to give the verb tense, so these are some topics that I should study more.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I was able to develop this activity more by intuition than by knowledge as such. Sometimes when I am in the process of learning a new language, I try to use my intuition a lot, but at the same time, I try to combine it with the knowledge I have to give an argument for the selection I am making. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p><br></p><p>In this activity the objective was to create an article in which information about a community in Colombia was exposed, in this case the Raizales were used, which from my point of view, although lacking in a high percentage in economic terms, i feel that it is a community that faces life in a happy and grateful way, always showing a smile, despite their circumstances. At the same time,  i consider that although tourism is their main economic source, it may be controversial that it is the main cause of pollution in San Andres, because many tourists are used to littering the streets, littering the beaches of this place in a considerable way.</p><p><br></p>]]></description>
