ReplyDeleteHello ! i am myeongsu from seoul, korea. it is always fun to meet and get to know foreign friends. I think you enjoy dancing. I recently saw a lot about African traditional dances on Instagram. Does Cameroon preserve the culture of traditional dance well? i think the culture of traditional dance is disappearing a lot in Korea.
ReplyDeleteSo sad, I think it's a global issue. even in Cameroon, but we try to do our best to save it by sometimes organizing festivals at school, with friends, etc. and many other cultural activities.
