    technology help to move our manners and costumes. I remember when I
    was a child everything stop the work or whatever they and go seat in the
    table and eat, it was a really nice time to see everybody.in my case at
    least fifteen relatives eat at home.so many times I miss the crowd and
    bullicious. I studied in a catholic college so it was very ussual that all the
    family went to church and pray.
    In the world etiquette can vary widely between different cultures and
    nations. The Japanese are very formal. In the other side latino people are
    very informal and casual. In Europa moments of silence are far from
    awkward. Smiling does not always mean that the individual is expressing
