In this moment I am doing a virtual course for learning English, and there, we have to talk about of many costumes of our countries, so I decided share here for all of you.
My view on Colombia
When is the birthday of someone, usually you must bring a present.
You can find somewhere to eat in the street for good price.
In the lunch, usually you eat a little portion of different foods.
In the lunch, someone eat a little cup of soup.
The people are friendly, so you can asked anything for anyone in the street, they help you.
For someone the thing most important in their life is their family.
In Christmas, The family meet in somewhere to eat and share with their parents. Someone cook anything for all, and someone distribute the presents at 12:00 am
In Colombia frequently in the celebration the people dance a few hours.
In each family usually someone is very funny and in the meeting this person say any joke.
In the party, usually someone buy something liquor to drink between everyone.
When you visit someone in your house, it is common drink a cup of coffee.

#1 Costumes Customs in Colombia
In this moment Right now I am doing a virtual course for learning English and on there, we have to talk about of the many costumes customs of our countries, so I have (or "I've) decided to share them here for with all of you.My view views on Colombia
When is the birthday of someone, usually you must bring a present. When it's somebody's birthday, you usually bring them a present.
You can find somewhere to eat in the street for good price. Add in an adjective between "can" and "find", to further specify what you mean. This statement is to generic for the subject that you're talking about and people will ask you for more information. So maybe use the words "rarely", "often", "mostly", "sometimes", ext. Your sentence was grammatically correct, but you're talking about a country with millions of people and thousands of towns/cities/villages. You need to specify how often you can find affordable street food, at least in my opinion.
In the lunch, usually you eat a little portion of different foods. during the lunch time, you usually eat some different foods in little portions.
In the lunch, someone eat a little cup of soup. During the lunch time, people usually have a little cup of soup.
The people are friendly, so you can asked ask anything anyone for anyone anything in the street and they will help you.
For someone Colombians, the thing most important thing in their life is their family.
In During Christmas, the family meets in somewhere to eat and shares (insert a noun to say WHAT is being shared with their parents. For example, perhaps you meant that Christmas presents are being shared with their parents?) with their parents. Someone will cook anything for all everybody and someone will distribute the presents at 12:00 am (or midnight; midnight = 12:00am).

Also, one more thing. I couldn't remember how to spell "customs" either until I saw the comment above me! The spelling in English makes NO sense to me and I speak English as my mother tongue! Whoever decided to make the rules for spelling in English was an idiot! Thank God for spell check on Microsoft Word! lol

NOTES
1. I don't know why I used "somebody" instead of "someone". I just corrected your sentences containing the word "someone" and when I read them, I realized that I wouldn't use the word "someone" but instead I would use the word "somebody". I can't explain the grammatical reason for that, you might even be correct when you say "someone" in the examples that you provided. I just wrote it down how I would say it.
2. In English, NEVER put a comma before the word "and". "And" ALWAYS replaces a comma.
3. I know I made a lot of corrections. The good news is, I understood everything that you wrote 100% and if we were having a conversation in real life, I would have easily been able to understood what you were TRYING to say. With that being said, you definetely wrote this article in English while THINKING in Spanish. I do this ALL the time when I talk/write in Spanish but I'm thinking the same way that I would think when I talk/write in English. Does that make sense? For example, the "in the lunch" is you writing in English while THINKING in Spanish, because in English we would say "during the lunch time".
I hope that this helped!
