Last term!

we are going to start the last erm which is the shorter one. As we are taking part in a competition we have to work harder if we want to win. We have to do so many things so we are dividing the work and choosing he best ideas. Hope you like the final results!

Globalization

In class we have been talking about the Globalization or Globalisation. The official definition is that is the process of international integration arising from the interchange of world views , products, ideas, and other aspects of culture. But when I think about it, I think about brands like Addidas, Apple, Zara or Coca-Cola. We use these products so often but we don't thing much about them or from where they come from.

I bought these pair of trainers in Italy in a cultural exchange that i did last year,  but they were made in Thailand. After that i saw them in a shop on Donosti, so, you can say, why are they everywhere? 

Well, that's because the Globalization. So that means that you'll find them in so many countries. That is the same as Zara or Mc Donalds , if you go on holidays to another country you'll find them as well.

In the first picture I appear with a Coca-Cola matchine that my mother has in her agroturism and in the second picture we can see my brother with a can of Coca-Cola and his name on it.

THE POPULATION OF THE WORLD

The population of the world has increase and is still increasing. In 1969 the population was the double of 1669, so we can say that it had increased twice more. Nowadays, we are 6 billion people in the world but because of the increasment in  2200 we will be twice more too. 

I think that because of this increasement of the people we will have problems in the future. So many things aren´t prparated for so many people, so, we will have to restyle some aspetc of our social buildings.

IRAQ

Here i am putting the mind map that we have done about the War of Iraq or about the conflict of that country.

CONTINENTS

Hi bloggers!
Yesterday we talked about the continents in class and I realised that there were a lot of things that i didn´t know or that i was wrong with some things.
We talked about the energy, the population, the money, the size of the continents and those all things. I knew that Asia was so big but i realised that it was bigger that i thought , and in the other size Africa was smaller that I thought.
Then we talk about the population and about the money, and with those things I was right, but when we talk about the energy of the continents I learned that Asia has less energy that I though ( 6 times les).

For example in this map we can see than Africa is the poorest continest and that Europe an North America the richest.

In the second, we can see the energy that consume all the continents with the lights in one night.

Finally, in the last one we can see the population or demography of the continents.

AN INTERVIEW

Hi bloggers!
Today I´m doing a interview to a person that has immigrate to Europe. Nowadays she is living with her husband and doughter in Malta, but she was born in Peru.

• When did you come to Europe?

Well, I first came to a wedding of some friends to Barcelona like, 10 years ago. There i met with some people that offered me a job in Malta. So a thought that it could be a very interesting experience and I moved there.

• In what type of work were you working?

I started working as a spanish teacher but only to few people in a small academy. Then the academy was restored and more people came to it. By the time i´m still working as a spanish teacher but is only for business people, i don´t teach them the spanish language like verbs and things like that , I only teach them tecnicalithies for meetings and those things.

• Do you like your job?

Yes , I think that it is quite interesting becouse I meet people from all over the world and from different cultures that came to Malta to learn some languages. In the other hand , i think that to do this job for the rest of my life it can be boring, so i decided to change of job every 10 years.

• So... what would like to do in some years? Have you be working in another type of work before??

I don´t know yet (laughs), but i want to do something very different...and ... yes, when I lived in Peru i worked as a secretary and I tried more jobs more while i was studing at the university. Ah! and  this summer too i have been the leader of a spanish group of teenagers that were here learning English.

• Coming back to your migration. How did you feel when you arrive in Europe??

Well, it first I was very sad becouse I left my family in Peru and I was in a foreign country, i had some friends there but they were working or with their families all the time so i only could see them some ours per week.  Also, I have to say that people from Malta aren´t very nice with foreign people, so in my first months i was very alone . But then, i realised that I was in a very exciting country and that there were a lot of activities to do. In those activities i met a lot of people -and not only from Malta- and i did many friends. After that, I met my husband.

Would you like to stay living in Malta or are you going to come back to Peru?

Well, by the time I´m living in Malta but I may move with my family to an other european country, i was thinking qbout Spain, because I love Barcelona.

• Okay, thank you very much. I had interviewed Julia Guerrero, a immigrant living in Malta.

DONOSTIA SAN-SEBASTIAN 2016

Donostia San -Sebastian is going to be the cultural capital of Europe in 2016 sharing that honor with a polish city called Wroclaw. Donostia won to Burgos , Las Palmas, Zaragoza, Segovia and Cordoba, with the last one there had been problems becouse at firt they were the favorite ones and they didn´t win. Cordoba said that Donostia could´t win becouse the terrorism had not finished yet but the judges didn´t listened to them and Donostia proclaimed the cultural capital of Europe in 2016.

That happened in 2011 and with time Donostia has grown and has been more expectacular. It has have a lot of tourist and the people that comes to visit this beautiful city is increasing.

I think that the best thing that Donostia has are the donostiarras. The make this city more beautiful and they expand Donostia´s best things; they are proud of their city so that makes Donostia better, more united and prettier.

I´m adding a video of the candudature:
