SPORTS
ResponderEliminarFootball is by far the most popular sport in Argentina. It is not only a sport, but part of the country's culture. The sport is played by children during breaks at school and by grown-ups in the plenty of both indoor and outdoor fields located throughout the country. The country's most famed national football idol historically is Diego Maradona, who is said to be the best player ever known arond the world.
Volleyball, basketball, tennis, rugby and hockey are also really popular, but still largely amateur in our country.

ResponderEliminarCustoms and habits
Some of the most important customs in Argentina are the tango, the mate, the "asado" and football.We considered our family as the centre of our hole life.
As regards communication,we often touch each other when speaking and have little physical distance between speakers.Maintaining eye contact indicates interest.Saying "hi" and "goodbye" to each person individually is, in Argentina a sign of respect.
