POST 6 - SUMMER PLANS

     Well, first I have to say that I think its kind of weird imagine myself making plans for summer because of the covid19 context and the sooner regrown of positive cases. But I will tell you about the plans I would like to do if we were in normal times.

    This year my grandma moved to La Unión, Osorno. She was sick of the city and wanted to live a better life, so she returned to the place where she was born.

    La Unión would be the place I would like to visit this summer. My paternal family is from the south of Chile and I haven’t been there since 2006 or so. It would be nice to know the new house and the beautiful landscapes.

    I would love to see my cousins, aunts, uncles, my Nona and Rosi. The last one is my nona’s house made, I love her so much. She is like a grandmother to me and I’m so grateful to have her in my life. And of course, I want to see my dog, Lukas ☹ I miss him so much.

    I would like to ride a bike and go with my sister and my dad to the places where he used to live. I think go to the Ranco Lake, maybe go to camping (we love to do that), or just staying home sharing stories with the family is something that I’d appreciate to do.

    I’m not thinking in work or studying during summer, I just want to lay in my bed, watch series on Netflix, read all the books I’ve been postponing and of course take a break from classes. I think my eyes are square from being on the computer so much. I JUST CAN'T HANDLE ANYMORE!

POST 5 - " TV SHOWS AND SERIES "

 Hi everyone! Today I’m going to talk about my favorite series.

I have to say that I watched a lot of series to be honest, so it’s kind of difficult for me to decide just for one. But well, I must say that one of my favorite series is Anne with an E. I really love this series because tells the story of an orphan girl called Anne Shirley. A girl with an incredible imagination, amazing dreams and values, she is kind, honest, and so innocent! This story is situated in XIX century, where mans ruled the world and women were supposed to stay at home with the kids. Anne is intelligent, and ambitious. She wants to be happy and successful too. Doesn't exist difference between boys and girls for her, and that is what make her and incredible character. And her point of view is absolutely modern and revolutionary for the people who live with her. See how she influence in their lives and their archaic traditions is amazing.

 

The kind of stories I love are the ones where the protagonist is a badass woman. It always inspires me to keep going and never give up. But I need to admit that I prefer to read books about that kind of stories, it’s a thousand times better.  

I would like to see Gambit Queen. I haven’t seen that series yet because I’m waiting to finish my tasks and exams first but I hope to do it soon!

Post 4 - My Future Job

     In the future, the kind of job I would like to have is one related to the area of tourism. I imagine myself working and traveling around the world helping with innovative and interesting ideas about sustainable tourism, conscious travelers, alternatives to protect the environment, and position Chile as one of the greatest attractions in South America.

I imagine working outdoors, I’m a very enthusiastic and hardworking woman. I can’t imagine myself just sitting in a desk in front of a computer, I know I’m capable of do so much more.

I would love to travel in my job. Not because of the reason of “free vacations” like a lot of public workers used to think it was. I would love to travel because its an incredible opportunity to learn about other cultures and traditions of places you’d never imagined before. And these opportunities must be beneficial to create awesome projects to promote tourism and help people who work in that area.

If we talk about salary, I think the most of us would like to get paid enough to satisfice our necessities and our recreational needs too. But to be honest, I’d like to have one that can bring me economic stability in my life, and with that be able to help my family and friends with everything they need.

Currently I am studying Public Administration and I would love to follow the area I talked before, even when I sound so excited about this kind of job I have to admit that isn’t the only job I aspire to work someday. Maybe that is the reason because I haven’t considered a specific magister yet.

But anyways, I don't worry about that right now, I’ll know it when time's arrive.

POST 3 "MY FAVORITE MOVIE"

 I must admit that one of my favorites movies is Shrek. I remember that I used to love it when I was just a little girl, also I had a puppet from Shrek and my twin sister the one from Burro. I think I still loving this movie because it’s so funny. I mean every time I watch it again; I understand something new and the subliminal messages are hilarious.

 

I think that the kind of movies I like most are the ones of action, like “Transformers” or “Avatar”. But its hard to say, because the ones based on books or real life are also my weakness like “The Help”, “Colonia” or “The Theory of Everything”. I am the kind of person who things that the soundtrack of a movie is crucial to decide if the movie its worthy or not.

The last movie I saw was “Gifted”. It’s a story of an intellectually gifted seven-year-old who becomes the subject of a custody battle between her maternal uncle and maternal grandmother. It’s a beautiful story with a big message: you can’t decide in others life. I recommend it!!! it’s moving and makes you think about what we are willing to sacrifice for freedom and love .

The best concert EVER!!

 The best concert of my whole life was in June 9th of 2019. It was in theater La Cúpula -a quite small place for a concert, in my opinion- located inside the O’Higgins Park. It’s incredible because just at the mere memory of that day I start to smile. It was the second time that The Neighbourhood presented in Chile. The first time it was at lollapalooza, but it was so expensive, so I just prayed for them to come back again someday :')

The Neighbourhood is an American alternative rock band from California, U.S. They’ve been together since 2011, but their first album “I LOVE YOU” was released on April 2013. I started to listen to them in 2014 thanks to the song Sweater Weather. And since that moment I fell in love immediately with the band. My favorite album is called "Wiped Out" and it's my bible.

 

So yes, I had to wait for like five years before I could see them sing in front of my eyes.

And that day was absolutely amazing.

The concert was in the night and it was so hot inside that theater. I went there with my sister and one of my best friends too and the location we got was perfect, near the stage and without so many people around. And the way I felt during the show it was perfect. I enjoyed every single song and felt the incredible music inside my bones. It was the moment I’ve wait my whole life and I was willing to live it like it was supposed to be, how I wanted to live, and never forget. Of course I was screaming like a crazy, it was a really euphoric day!!!

POST 1 - A COUNTRY I'D LIKE TO VISIT

     I must admit that there are a lot of countries that I would like to visit someday. But the country I really want to visit is Italy. Since I was at school, I remember that their culture and their history was something that always demanded my full attention. Where the most important pieces of art from expositors like Leonardo da Vinci, Sandro Botticelli or Filippo Brunelleschi was something that I had always admired. But, in specific I’d like to visit the city of Florence because I’ve been obsessed with the Medici Dynasty and their importance not only for their own city, but with the whole country. 

I'm not saying that I'm agree with the kind of vision they used to had, but it's very interesting when you realize how they manipulated everything they could just to maintain their impire of power in Florence.

    To be honest I don’t know if I would settle myself there for living. I would like to travel like a tourist and enjoy in that way. I believe that if you want to move to a different country you should try to visit it first and learn all about what is going to surround you before making a choice of that size.

    But well, sometimes life takes a lot of turns and you never know where you’ll end up 👀😲
