Fiestas Patrias


Almost a month ago we celebrated our national holidays (fiestas patrias) and mine was like a fail.
This year with my family decided to travel to the south of the country (near Los Angeles city) and I invited my bf, and everything was ok until we were going to start leaving Santiago.
The first problem was that a guy broke a window of my house, so we were having to wait like 2 hours to go (we were going in car), and we arrived like at 2:00 AM to the place we were going to stay the week, I was dead.
The first day it was all ok, but at the second day the weather changed completely, it started to rain for like 4 days and we didn’t go out, but we can go to buy alcohol.
When it stops raining we finally could go to a natural reserve (national park Laguna del Laja) and everything was cover by snow and we go to do a track in there.
So, my national holidays are always very normal, I didn´t wanted to go to fondas or places like that because I don´t really liked, I think that they are expensive.
I personally think that being Chilean it´s just a denomination to order people in to different categories, so (even that I enjoy some cultural things about Chile) I don’t have that nationalist fells like other people.
bye :)

Walking around

One of my favorite activities in my free time maybe is a little boring, but I really enjoy walking and get lost in the city (obviously having my cellphone charged and with the internet OK, because most of the time I have to check google maps). I usually do it when I have some free time at the university and I just go to walk I the near places to after comeback. However, sometimes I like to do it nearly my house and sometimes I have to take a bus and go home. I think that the reasons of that I enjoy so much this is because I can distract myself and know new places to go again. Because, in my opinion, this “hobby” is forgotten by the people, I mean that most of us can have so much free time and we are always hurry (going to this place and vice versa), so I think that it is a really good alternative to think and have some personal time. For example, one day I have a lot of free time and I didn´t have nothing to do, so I started to walk near the Universidad de Chile train station, and i...

My favourite places in my childhood

When I was a child, my dad took me every weekend to different places (sometimes they repeated but I didn´t bother me). In addition, I won’t say that I remember all of those, so I´m going to talk about those I remember the most (and I return until today) One of my favorite places in life was the Artequin Museum, it placed next to the Quinta Normal Park. I personally think that it is a place to visit once, because his tour was always the same, I mean, in that route you have to see a movie about a ballerina statue in the museum (like the picture) who becomes alive in the and talks to the different paintings and his stories. Other place near of the Artequin was the Santiago´s Library, and I remember that I spend many time reading books in those cones in the section of children’s. I don´t really remember that I used the computer (because I was very shy). My last favorite place in mi childhood was the Plaza Brazil (in that time I called “La plaza del volcán”) because i...

Something that I enjoyed in school

When I was in my 3rd years in secondary school, I had to choose one of the five electives in school. Therefore, I picked one called Bachillerato de Humanidades, and one of the subjects was Literary English. I remember that was taught by a person who we called Flanders (like the Simpson´s character), just because he was always wearing sweaters and glasses, and because he used to have a mustache. His personality was a little different to the character personality, he was always cheerful and making jokes. I think that I liked that subject most by the teacher and his willingness, because in all the year that the course he wanted to we learned well, so he always was in the stand to help. Also, I liked the topics that we deal with (tales, poems, music and plays), so we read various interesting texts. One of the things that was harder for me, was interpreting poems and music, because I´m not really good interpreting people so it was going to be harder to do it with someone you don´t k...
