  1. I could help u but i recommend you to ask more than one question (1 for food, 1 for music... etc) cause then this would be endless..

    So some information.. in general..

    Food:

    -pabellon criollo: national dish

    -arepas: this is almost like bread here cause some people eat arepa everyday and u can eat it with anything u want.

    -cachapas: are made of corn but its kind f sweet and usually we eat with cheese.

    -Hallaca: we eat it n christmas.

    -Pan de jamon: the same as hallacas (i love it by the way =P)

    And here more information about food

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venezuelan_...

    Music: as in the rest f latin american countries we dance salsa, merengue, calypso (n carnivals)... etc there isnt a good party without salsa an merengue!

    but our traditional music is.. joropo, tambor (it means drums), gaita (we listen to gaitas during christmas but its originated from zulia estate so there they listen to gaitas almost everyday)

    Education:

    Theres a litle bit of everything.. there r really good schools (good school are always private or at least the 99% f them.. im nt syaing public schools are bad becase some f them r good.. but n general they dnt have a good reputation..and of course there r also private shcool that arent that good)

    The best universities are: Universidad de los andes, universidad central de venezuela, universidad simon bolivar...

    Here you have some information about touristic places:

    -Ciudad universitaria de Caracas (main Campus of the Central University of Venezuela. It was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2000)
