Hello Nana! I think that both are equally important. We are young and if we have the opportunity we should go out and see the world! However, I also think that we should be wise with our money. Don't spend your cash on frivolous items like jewelry. I recommend saving your money, and putting some aside so that you can travel. :)
I like travelling so much and <strike>every year at least one time</strike> at least once a year I <strike>will</strike> go to a new city/country for tourism.
But my mother <strike>said</strike> says that us young people should save money <strike>as much as we could</strike>
as often as we can. She is always worried about what will happen in the future. I agree with her and <strike>when sometimes I saw </strike>sometimes when I see something I like or when I <strike>go travel </strike>am traveling I tell myself, "this is not necessary."
On the other hand, some of my friends are really enjoying their travels. They can use half of their salary to buy one necklace without <strike>no </strike>saving <strike>in</strike> the card and they always use their credit cards.

People that have the means to get a good education (through scholarship, ability to pay tuition out of pocket, ect.) and those that are willing to work hard for their dreams often have the ability to become successful. Although my country is experiencing a lot of turmoil and violence right now, I still believe that America has a lot of opportunities that many countries do not have.0 votedJuly 23, 20160
- Oh Sudeep! I hope that these folk tales do not die away in your country! I think they are so important, and it tells us how people throughout time have tried to make sense of the world around them. Thank you so much for sharing some of your country's myths and superstitions with me! I also enjoyed hearing them when I was a child :)0 votedJuly 18, 20160
- I think this is very comma for anyone learning a foreign language. Whenever I have to speak Italian or read something in Latin, I often get nervous! However, I think the key to overcoming your anxiety is to delve into it! The more you face your fears, the more confident you will become until it is no longer a fear, but rather your strength. :)0 votedJuly 18, 20160
In English, depending to whom we are speaking with, you can choose between "informal" and "formal" English. This is often done to denote a level of respect. If you were talking to a friend, you may choose to say, "Whats up, Sup, Yo, Hey homie, ect..." However, if you were speaking with an authority figure (boss, police officer, professor) you would usually address them "Hello (insert title)" So "Hello, Dr. Jones" or "Good evening Mr. Matthews." In the Southern region of America, we also like saying "Yes/No ma'am and Yes/No Sir"
Hope this helps!

- Hello Darek. I appreciate your input on my discussion post. I believe that most human beings, not all, give into their vices; whether it be greed or a lust for power, and often times they employ that vices through trying to control other human beings. I believe that the we as humans must strive to understand one another and to put our biases and prejudices aside in order to move create a better humanity. However, the right road is not always the easy one, and in this case it appears that it is much easier for people to approach one another hatred and bigotry rather than humbling themselves and seeking a common ground. I do not think that it is lazy or stupid to believe in religion, however, I believe that it is imperative for each individual to decide what they choose to believe in for themselves and to understand that in this world we will not all share the same beliefs and that is okay. Often times I see that people try to impose their ideologies on others who do not share the same beliefs war almost instantaneously ensues. I would hope that one day we will be able to respect each other, even if we do not all agree with one another.0 votedJuly 17, 20160
