Family Details
1. Actually, my grandma is indigenous, and my mom is too! I’ve never been to our community.
2. My younger brother and I have a close relationship.
In What Ways is Cultural Heritage Important?
For me, cultural heritage can help me find myself and let me know who I am. One of the important things is family, the connection between me and my family is very strong and cohesive.
Likes and Dislikes
My favorite food is chocolate yogurt. I also like playing the guitar and listening to music. I dislike the comander, caterpillar. I play the guitar because I always feel comfortable when I do this. I dislike comander because it doesn’t smell well.
Free Time Activities
I like to exercise, cook, and outdoor activities, such as exploring some places I’ve never been before.
My Role Model
I think it is my mom, because when I feel upset or stressful, my mom always listens to my heart and encourages me.

I want to be a teacher because I like playing with children, I think they are really cute and innocent.
