The Best and Worst of Catalunya

Five things you'll love and hate about Catalonia.

Mark Wolter is an American guy who, luckily for him, travels quite a lot around the world. While traveling he shoots videos which he, then , publishes on his YouTube channel. The video you're going to see has been recorded in Barcelona. Please, watch and write down the good things , according to Mark, about Barcelona and the not so good.

Do you agree with Mark Wolter? Reason your answer.



Since this post is about "traditions and customs",now we move to the eastern part of the world,that is, India. Check this video on Diwali, a traditional festival held in India, but that has spread all over the world.



After watching think of  traditional customs in your culture which are still celebrated today. Choose one and create a podcast describing it. Include:

  • what the custom involves
  • when and where it takes place
  • who participates in it
  • any training participants need
  • if the event is promoted internationally
