Episode 7: First Day of School Traditions from Around the World

En este episodio hablo de mi primer viaje a la ciudad de Medellìn, en Colombia, cual fue mi experiencia y la transformaciòn que tuvo la ciudad despuès de haber vivido una època muy violenta hace aproximadamente 30 años. En que modo se ve reflejado el amor de los paisas (como se llama a las personas de esta regiòn)  por la ciudad y ese trato siempre amable, gentil y cariñoso que hacen los turistas se enamoren de este lugar. A nivel gramatical: uso de tiempos del indicativo: presente, pretèrito perfecto, indefinido e imperfecto. Vocabulario: lugares turìsticos de la ciudad de Medellìn y algunos de los platos de comida tìpicos.
