Inmigration in Costa Rica

Costa Rica has become in the last years one of the favorite destinations of people of other countries. The most common immigrants come from Central America, China or South America especially from Colombia, Chile and Venezuela. But which are the causes the causes that all these immigrants have to move to Costa Rica? Well, in my opinion, I think that they come to our country looking for new opportunities. Maybe they come from countries that are very violent or in war, so they try to find a peaceful place to live. Some people come alone or with their families looking for better jobs or easy access to their human rights, like access to health system, so they can live better. Or finally, some immigrants come to Costa Rica searching for a new country,  that is attractive for it amazing and rich of natural resources with a tropical weather.

Food Trends in Costa Rica

Troughs the last years, food trends have been influenced by the cultures of other countries. Some factor that is influencing these changes is the globalization. Nowadays, many cultures have arrived to Costa Rica and there are many different restaurants. There are Italian, Japanese, Chinese, Lebanese, French and Costarican restaurants.  Also including fast food like Burger King, McDonalds, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut or KFC, they all have changed the national habits and trends in the costarican society. International restaurants have changed the nutrition of the people, and are increasing the lost of the importance of the preservation the national food.

Education

I totally agree with the fact that relaxing and doing hobbies is just as important as doing homework. I agree with that idea because I believe that people have to be healthy in all ways. Hobbies and relaxing make a person to be emotionally healthy, if you do something that you like and put effort on it, you can achieve your goals in an unstressful way. Homework is important because it increases the discipline and the value of responsibility but hobbies as reading or practicing a sport also increase discipline and responsibility. When you learn how to relax in a difficult situation, you are learning something new, just as if you do your math homework. I think that if people can have a balance between relaxing and doing hobbies with homework, the can consider both important in their daily life.

Philantropy

Philanthropy is the action to donate Money to a good cause. Around the world, nowadays there are many people that need help. Other people donate their money to universities; other people give money to in institutions that help poor people around the world giving food, water, houses or money. Also, other philanthropists donate their money to medical research or also they give their money to institutions that are in charge of the preservation of the natural resources around the world. Some people donate billions of dollars while other people donate $1, but the important thing is that people like to share with other people.

Situation of elderly people in Costa Rica

Nowadays, in Costa Rica the elderly population is suffering of discrimination. Their families abandom them in nursering homes and never visit them. This has become a very common thing in costarican society and it has been increasing. Young people don't help them or respect them as part of our history. Elderly people sometimes can't move around the city in a comfortable way, because the city doesn't have the facilities for them in the street or in the bus. People don't value the big knowledge that they have anf unfortunetly they become just a '' burden'' for the society.
