COLOMBIA....

Podemos concluir entonces, por todo lo mencionado anteriormente que somos afortunados al pertenecer a este hermoso pais. Smos privilegiados al tener diversidad en fauna y flora, de tan hermosos paisajes y geografia a demas de un clima variado, diversidad de platos tipicos y de cultura.Son estos aspectos, los que hacen de Colombia el lugar ideal para vivir, y no permiten que aspectos como la violencia o la corrupcion la opaquen. Sin embargo, los colombianos hemos sido objetos de estereotipos por parte de otras culturas, haciendo que parezcamos todos como personas violentas y corruptas.Es un hecho que muchas personas que llegan a nuestro pais de vacaciones quisieran quedarse, y es aqui donde se dan cuenta de somos mas las personas buenas que malas, y mas las que queremos hacer de este pais un lugar mejor. Estemos entonces,orgullosos de nuestra cultura, nuestro pais y nuestra gente.
