Some believe that people today have no interest in maintaining the traditional culture of their country or region. Others believe that it is still important to people that we preserve a traditional way of life. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

fact that each country is different makes me want to go there, to taste their typical cuisine, to take part in some traditional parties, watching traditional local dances. It is vital for every country to stick to its roots. And traditions are our roots. So we must celebrate typical holidays to cook traditional food and have those simple conversations. Regarding music, if we look at Rosalia, her art embodies various musical styles, she started with singing flamenco, and now it is a mixture of flamenco , R&B , art pop and reggaeton and she is driving many youngsters crazy with her talented music. In conclusion, though there are certainly

But I have to admit I would struggle without the Internet nowadays as I got used to it.
