When it comes to stereotyping I beleive it is something that people do without realizing it and it is something that quickly leads to a close minded existance. I beleive in order to broaden one's horizons you have to keep an open mind to other cultures and traditions. When someone understands something they are more likely to accept it, but when you choose not to be knowledgable about things(a person, a culture) is when stereotypes are born.

http://www.comevisitspain.com/ I would get a room at Hotel Villa Magna and i would indulge in the many activities that they provide to their guest such as visiting the pool and spa and the restraunt that is in the lobby of the hotel. I would go to a number of diffrent restraunts such as Cherry and Spott. I would also take the time to visit the esteemed museums that are all over the city both historical and art. i would stay for about a week and return with as much Jamon as I could carry

The mayor in juarez mexco which is the city that houses one of the biggest drug cartels in the world has been commenting on the situation concerning the violent gangs. He says that he doesn't beleive his city to be dangerous and he lives there happily with his wife and two children. He says "this is not one of the most dangerous cities in the world this is not Iraq, this is not Iran." In my opinion the comparison cannot even be made Iraq is a warzone and juarez is just a simple city, but is is ravaged by drugs and violence it is just as bad but in a tottally diffrent way than places such as Iraq and Iran.
