points, we all have a community of practice. In which we can relate to having a significant event that has helped us identify ourselves as experts, within our community. In my case, my community of practice involves my number one hobby which is playing the violin. This takes place in a mariachi group here in the community of San Bernardino.

We take our weekly practices very serious and put all of our effort into it. Not only, but we also gather unique and talented musicians to learn more about the fundamentals of music. This community of practice is uniquely organized and motivates the community to grow within traditional mariachi music.…

Wish I Could Be Part of That Disney World Since my toddler years, I have been an avid Disney fan, nay, an addict. I have attended the parks annually since my 3rd birthday.
