Alejandro Iraheta

Refran: "it’s love, felicidad and sadness it’s another way to show love to our people and the most important things is that it makes us proud of where we come from, y honrar a los miembros de nuestra familia que han muerto."


Card Description: none


Student Biography: My name is Alejandro, and I was born here but my parents are originally from El  Salvador, I like playing soccer with my friends, I would say that’s my hobby and  after school I would like to go to college, my message its that no matter where  you from you still can learn about other cultures and other traditions from other  countries because every single country has their own beautiful culture and  traditions, there’s so much ways to show art and show how we feel and I think  that these traditions are the perfect way to show our art and share how we are  feeling in that moment, and also I think that there’s something beautiful in  learning new things, and even if I’m not Mexican I think they have a beautiful  culture and I see it every single year around me, I even celebrate it with my family  because some of my family are Mexicans and I learned a lot of their culture  because of them, and even if some of family members have passed away they  aren’t gone because they still live in our memories and they will never be  forgotten and still can share their memories and their stories through next  generations.
