TV

 Here the Tv have more channels, but the shows and films more or less are the same, because in Spain we watch american channels, i didn't watch so much tv so i think we watch the tv more in Spain, there are spanish channels too but the most of them are mexican, but i also watch a FC Barcelona game.

Sports

In America the sports are very different.

There the sport is very important, almost all the people play one sport and they play it 5 days a week, my host play soccer and almost all the days they have something.
Many people of the school go to see the games.
They play two sports a year, one summer sport like football and one winter sport like basketball.
And the day before the game, all the teams meet to dinner and they eat pasta that is why it's called pastadinner.

A surprise thing is that the soccer is considered sport for girls.

And they have many popular sport, football, baseball, hockey, basketball, no like in spain that we only have 1 or 2 (Soccer, basketball)
