Known for its excellent wine, food, music and dance, the Argentine Republic offers a diverse landscape containing beautiful beaches and snowy mountains. The famous Asados are enjoyed every Sunday, full of meats and sausages grilled to perfection.
I loved learning about Argentina from my friend Martina. She is so knowledgeable about the country, food and political climate. She shared with me that it is not common for young people to focus on politics and she is alway trying to teach her fellow classmates about global issues. She discusses the economic conflicts in Argentina which play a part in the main social issues related to classism, and identified that there is a huge differentiation between the rich and the poor.
Martina shared how she loves learning about politics through model united nations and that she loves meeting and learning about people all over the world. Interestingly enough, that is exactly how I met Martina. She commented that Model UN conferences allow her to learn about other cultures around the world and recognize how different yet similar we are as humans.
