Benyamin's culture identity by BENYAMIN CIFUENTES CORTEZ

Benyamin

The meaning of my name is "son of the right [hand]". I think my name fits me because it sounds very hispanic.

I've always thought to myself why my name is “Benyamin”. I also ask my parents and they say it's a bible name. I also think it's because my dad when he was young at 12 years old was already carrying a lot of money. He had them benji’s, so I think it's because of those reasons. I like it because it's from the bible and my religion is cristian so even though it is a name I'm really thankful for it.

Nino de oro

The song I relate to is “Nino De Oro” because it has some lyrics that relate with my life. It is “No me quejo ni le lloro. No Nací En Cuna De Oro. La herencia que me han dejado. Ser Movido Y Chambeador.” That relates to me because I had always worked hard for what I wanted and thanks to my parents they always taught me how to work hard and never give up, and like the song says I wasn’t born rich but working hard can change that.

Igualito a mi apa

Another song that I have is “Igualito a mi apa” this song also speaks for me because it says “Igualito a mi apa, y hasta en los mismos gustos, me regaló su super con cacha doradas la porto con gusto” and i relate because I am just like my dad a business man and want the world to be ours. We work hard and always take care of our love ones, he always gives me everything.

Food

One food from the country is pozole or it can also be the tacos my parents make tacos and my aunt makes pozole and I love that food my aunt makes because she is from oaxaca mexico which their food would be mole but she does pozole.

Food

Also One food from Brazil is Feijoada which consists of black beans cooked with different cuts of pork, supplemented with tomatoes, cabbage, and carrots to round out the flavor. Traditionally, it’s made with slow-cooked offal

Ethnicity

bcifuent0013 — 2024-01-29 02:01:27 UTC

Mexico and Guatemala matter to my cultural identity because they have a lot of history like they both had Mayans Tribes. Mexico is a land of extremes, with high mountains and deep canyons in the center of the country, sweeping deserts in the north, and dense rain forests in the south and east. Mountains cover much of Mexico. Guatemala is mountainous, except for the south coastal area and the vast northern lowlands of Petén department The Brazilian landscape is very varied. It is most well known for its dense forests, including the Amazon, the world's largest jungle, in the north.

Location

bcifuent0013 — 2024-01-29 02:05:38 UTC

It is located in northwest Mexico, and is bordered by the states of Sonora to the north, Chihuahua and Durango to the east (separated from them by the Sierra Madre Occidental) and Nayarit to the south. To the west, Sinaloa faces Baja California Sur across the Gulf of California. The state covers an area of 58,328 square kilometers (22,521 sq mi), and includes the Islands of Palmito Verde, Palmito de la Virgen, Altamura, Santa María, Saliaca, Macapule and San Ignacio. In addition to the capital city, the state's important cities include Mazatlán and Los Mochis.

Clothing

bcifuent0013 — 2024-01-29 02:11:55 UTC

In the North Area of Mexico most people dress as cowboys I only wear stuff like that on special occassions but I wear simple stuff, A simple style with sometimes bright colors but it's more often dark colors.I wear rings, chains, People nowadays really don’t dress as what their culture has so I really don't know what they would say about the culture. Even though I do dress a certain way sometimes like a cowboy from Mexico, that's I'll say part of the culture because you can see someone like that and know that they are mexican. Also as a buchon but it mostly represents people from the cartel so I don’t think that comes with culture it represent of how much money you got.

Quote

bcifuent0013 — 2024-01-29 02:14:47 UTC

A quote that has a meaning to me is “if you're weak, you wont get what you want in this life, that why you gotta fight for it no matter what you gotta do” That goes with the mexican and brazilian culture because sometimes in mexico things are very hard and we gotta fight because if you just be lazy and don’t try nothing you won't go nowhere

Hero

bcifuent0013 — 2024-01-29 02:16:13 UTC

My heroes I will say because they are three not one. They are God, My Mom and My Dad. First of all is god because he is always with me and guiding me on everything I do. He takes care of me and my family everywhere we go. My Mom is also one of them because she has always helped me on my downs and she's there for me on my ups. Just like my dad even though my relationship with them wasn’t that good but it has been improving. Both of them encourage me and inspire me because I see how well they work together and what they have built. My Dad influences my life because even when you’re going through stuff you have to never give up for your family because that's what men do. I say that because when I was younger I wouldn't understand anything about life but now that I'm one year from becoming an adult I get what my mom would say when she would be like “ life is not easy”. I also now understand my dad because he has given us everything we wanted. They are my heroes because they always try to lead me and make me have a good future and I am really working on it because of them and because of their help they always give me.

Hobbies

bcifuent0013 — 2024-01-29 02:18:14 UTC

Some of the hobbies I have are playing soccer and learning different kinds of stuff like trading/ stocks/ real estate. Or how to do dropshipping. I also like to work out and run or work on things that I know will help me in the future. I also like to draw. Sometimes I watch or help my mom cook because she always says if you ever find a wife that doesn't wanna cook, you already know how to so you won't die of hunger but she will.I also like to help my dad on his business.

Language

bcifuent0013 — 2024-01-29 02:19:10 UTC

The languages that I speak are English, Spanish, Portuguese and I am learning French but I'm not French so it's only Spanish, English and portuguese. Spanish has been my main language because In Mexico and Guatemala we speak spanish however portuguese is like spanish but a little faster to talk. I really don’t have an accent and people sometimes say I sound hondurean because mexican people or guatemalan people have accents but it's because I speak three languages or sometimes people don’t have the accent.

Travel

bcifuent0013 — 2024-01-29 02:19:49 UTC

I like to travel. My parents on my birthday fly me out to another state or I go with them and we travel together. On my 16th birthday I went to Chicago. It was great because we went to see some family friends and we went on very snowy weather but it was fun and cool because we even played soccer outside while it was snowing. I also went camping which for me is like traveling because you get time to spend with your family and no distractions like phones or other stuff. Sometimes traveling helps you release stress. Or just in general it can help you a lot.
