Culture... is not easy to define, but I believe that culture in reality is what keeps us together. Is the form in that how we relate. But also is considered a degree of knowledge, study. You know more about certain subjects such as music, literature, science, cinema, among many others.
Really I think both are parts or glances culture.
Chileans are people who like football, typical food, for example chicha and empanada. But the Chilean people in ocassions is a little distant and mistrustful, but in other occasions they are really are really generous, friendly and very kind.
We are different people from other side of America that are happier and relaxed.
In my culture, I believe exist some topics which are difficult to talk, for example homosexuality, social differences and education. Maybe this is because even hard for people to express themselves. But we need work need to work these issues for a better society.
Today globalization is all over the world. I think that part is good but also bad things. In Chile this phenomenon has gone and changed the culture, which I think has brought more harm than good.
Something positive about globalization is that it is easier to communicate between different countries.
Now something bad is related to food. Because when this phenomenon came, changed the type of feed to fattening and unhealthy, the famous junk food.
There are many things that are typical of the Chilean people, but one in particular that I like is the solidarity that is in difficult times. For example when was the earthquake, or every year that makes the Teleton, always all people donating money and other things to help.
The culture is a issue extensive and very interesting to speak, I believe is really necessary that we thinking about this, because is the best form to improve as a society.
I say... you could think about this =)
