Assignment by José Luis
I would like to know to Fidel Castro, I always have thought that he is a important person in the history of humanity, who has wrote his own history trough his revolucionary life. During more that 50 year, Mr Castro have been the president of Cuba, where he has defended his ideals revolucionary. I think that Castro could be romantic when he starting his revolution, maybe he could be dream socialistic o revolucionary men, but after five decades i would like ask to fidel: If he sometime have changed his socialistic ideals..? If he has seen the changes in the world..? And why he always has insisted in the revolucionary proyect that for Cuba Always will be dream, but, he never has done reality. At least, after 50 years, there isn´t enough evidence that he will be able to doing

I’m planning to go in September 2012 for my 50th birthday celebration. The best season to go is from May to September. For this I want to take a seven days cruise from Vancouver to Alaska.
The Alaska geographic offer wonderful places like lakes, islands, mountains and two active Volcanoes Island. You can also see lot animals that you have never seen like polar bears, seals, whales, sea otters and wolves.
As natural phenomena, Alaska has days that can last up to 22 hours of sun light, and presents the most impressive heavenly phenomenon of all: the aurora borealis.

Assignment by Luis Ocampo
What is the most bizarre dish you've ever tried? How did it taste? Where did you get it? Could you eat it?
Around six years ago, I remember a French guy who came to Costa Rica to do his graduation project about food safety. I met this guy through a coworker of mine, and we become friends.
One day, after he finished his project and before he leave Costa Rica, he invited us for dinner in his apartment, and he told us he would prepare a very special dish ….
When we arrived to his apartment, we noticed something smelled weird … He told us that he had prepared “Raw Octopus Marinated”. It was a kind of “Octopus Ceviche”, with a terrible aspect! At the beginning, I didn't know what to do, so, I thought I should try to eat it, even a little bit, but it tasted worse than it looked!! the meat was tough and its taste was like ... I don't know... like dog food?! maybe...
I felt ashamed when I told to my French friend that I didn't like the food he had prepared, so my coworker said the same, and our friend started to laughing and he said: "don't worry, I don't like either! Let's go for some pizza!"
"Raw Octopus Marinated"... do you want to taste? See de picture below
