Explanation
Víctor was born in Namibia in 1965. When he was 13 he went to Angola with his cousin to take part on the civil war. There he learnt to use a gun to survive, but he didn't have to use it. At the age of 18 he emigrated to Cuba to study marine biology. He returned to Namibia 11 years later and worked as a marine biologist for 23 years. After that he came to Spain to improve his studies at Santiago University and he got married with Rocío González here. Now he is an English teacher who gives particular lessons in Bertamiráns, near Chavián. He can speak six different languages including Spanish, English and Portuguese. We chose him
for this interview because he teaches us English and we see him once or twice a week. We think he is a nice person. Thanks to him we learn about other cultures and languages.

Explanation
In this photograph you can see the Bertamiráns market. Its located in two main streets: Rúa Entrerrios and Rúa Ameneiral.

On Saturdays you can visit the market from three o'clock in the afternoon until eight o'clock. The day the picture was taken it was raining and there were only around twenty stalls, but when it's sunny there can be up to fifty stalls.

The market stalls sell a variety of inexpensive clothes, accessories, bed linen, organic produce such as tomatoes, lettuce, cheese and bread. There is a stall that sells traditional salted fish known as 'bacalau'. Local residents and families visit the market to buy such products and get together as a social event, and eat the delicious churros!

The sellers move on to other markets in the nearby areas such as Noia and Padron.
