TASK 34 - IS DEMOCRACY DEAD? 

Y llegamos al episodio número 8 de la serie 'HABLEMOS DE VIAJES'. Como pueden ver, es un tema que me encanta, siempre tengo algo más para decir, opinar, compartir y debatir con ustedes.

En esta oportunidad, voy a estar enfocándome en el aspecto de las relaciones que creamos cuando viajamos.
