My mother and I are “mateando”. This is a social tradition. We pass the mate bowl around while we chat. There is only one mate that is refilled with hot water and passes from one to another. I chose this because it is a tradition I like. It is restful and friendly.

My family is funny and I have two sisters. I like the fresh air, and I like reading. I dislike cities. When I grow up I’d like to be the voice of cartoon characters.
