It has given our entire class such great insight in the telenovela world. I am so thankful that each person that we have met via skype has been so genuine and sincere. Each of them has such great things to teach us, and I have loved every minute of it!alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02529409169322155111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6435768389238007524.post-79700316213102523792011-04-17T16:58:50.640-04:002011-04-17T16:58:50.640-04:00Although I completely agree with you in that Julie...Although I completely agree with you in that Julie and Claudio were so nice and easygoing during our skype conversations, I'm not totally sure that you can generalize and say that everyone in the television industry is like that. Maybe it's because Americans can sometimes be classified as "workaholics" but I think that people from Latin American countries come off as more warm and welcoming in many situations. They are extremely hard-working, but know when there's a time to relax and enjoy. This is just my personal opinion. Our situation is also skewed because of the fact that the people we are getting the chance to talk to know Dr. A and understand what she does in her research. They are willing to speak with us because of the relationship they have with her, and it is difficult to say whether you could get a similar situation with anyone else whether in the US or in Latin America without a connection like Dr. A's.Gabriella Baettihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16435406369838359614noreply@blogger.com
