What's more important to you: food that tastes good, or food that looks good? The internet has hundreds of websites with thousands of photos of different types of food: cooking blogs, travel sites and social media sites with names like FoodSpotting, SnapDish, InstaFood and of course Instagram. One website has ‘rainbow food': red, orange, yellow, green and other coloured food, all on one plate. And there are websites about how to take a good photo of your food.

In Quebec we have a big festival every winter, the Quebec Winter Carnival. The city goes crazy! It's really good fun and we have lots of things to see and do. I love looking at the ice sculptures. The artists often make ice animals and buildings. I always watch the canoe race. They race on the icy river and it's very exciting. My favourite thing is the evening parade. I like watching it with my family.

The top kinds of food in the world are pasta, rice and pizza, of course! Americans are big pizza eaters. So how many slices do they eat a day? Well, they eat 350 slices - not per day, but per second! And the average American eats 10.4 kilograms of pizza per year. But with frozen pizza, the Norwegians are number one, at 5 kilograms a year per person.

Lisa Chung's family was very poor and she worked hard all her life. Her father didn't want to send her to school and when Lisa was a teenager, she cooked and cleaned for all the family. Later, as a wife and mother, she opened a restaurant and worked from 4 a.m. to 10 p.m. Her three children all finished high school and her granddaughter Yura was the first in the family to go to college. Then when Lisa was seventy, her life changed completely.

'A dog ate my homework.' This excuse was never good in the past and it certainly isn't good now. College students and people in business now do most of their work online, so everyone needs to think digital. Good excuses today are: 'My wifi was down.' 'There was a problem with my computer and I lost all my work.' And the best: 'I left my laptop on the bus.' This reason is really good because your friends or colleagues will feel sorry for you.

I like travelling and one of my favourite places to go to is in my own country. It's my grandmother's village, and I like it because I spent a lot of my childhood there. The name of the village is Zipaquirá and it's about two hours from Bogotá by car. My brother and I are going to La Catedral de Sal this June. I don't like travelling by car, so we're going by bus, then a friend is going to pick us up. We're going to stay for two weeks.
