I really liked when I saw la confluencia del Río Baker in Cochrane, Aysen, I traveled there in 2021 with a few people of my family like my mom, my cousin, my sister and my nephew. I must say It's a very beautiful water course, the sound, the atmosphere and the smell, all the characteristics that this place has are unique, to get there we walked for a while and went through some trees, when we arrived we could get very close to the water because of the big rocks and you can just sit there and admire the view, we were there for a long time just looking at how beautiful and relaxing it was, It was like just concentrating on the sound of the water and it's turquoise colors, I think that is why it's one of the most special places I have seen, being there is not just taking a picture, instead it's an experience that involves very peaceful feelings, seeing it for the first time is very impressive because of how big it is and how you get used to the sound and everything that su

I recently traveled to Dalcahue, a place on La Isla de Chiloé and even if it was not so long ago (probably like 2 week ago) I would really like to visit it again, I went on vacation with a few people of my family like my mom, my sister, my nephew, my cousin, grandparents and an aunt. We toured the area and many places around from Dalcahue which is a very nice town with a museum, several churches and an impressive cemetery, it has some places further away as waterfalls, bridges, etc. I think what I liked the most of that trip was a tour we did that was about the witches of Chiloe, the history, objects and places where supposedly things happened related to the witches, it was very interesting because it was not a tour that wanted to scare people, instead they wanted to really inform about the events related to the witches on the island, the trials and facts. I really liked this experience and the place because it's close to many other areas. Touring the surrounding nature is very int

Today I'm going to talk about my cousin Fabiana, I want to talk about her because I think she's a very interesting person because she works as a veterinarian and I'm very interested in what she does, she has worked with domestic animals like cats and exotic animals like tigers, monkeys or even snakes, It's amazing to hear her talk about her stories or experiences that she has had with these animals and how is her work because, also because it's obvious that she likes it very much and I think that makes it even more exciting, even when she tells bad things like that certain animals bit her or things like that. I'm very interested in animals, although is more in a vegetarian side and she's more interested in a theoretical side, so we can share information and opinions. She's also very extrovert, most of the time she's happy and not ashamed of anything, so she's one of the best people I get along with in my family, before when I was younger and she

I'm not sure of the exact age that I started learning English, but it was probably when I was a child in school where I learned to conjugate sentences and verbs or basic things, I learned more vocabulary with movies and videogames that I watched in English with Spanish subtitles while I related the words and their translation, even when I was 17 years old I took an English course to learn more of it. I think the hardest thing about English for me is speaking it because I don't have a good pronunciation and it's very noticeable that I have an accent.  To practice my English outside of class and expand my vocabulary I try to read books or short stories in English which helps me to learn new words and phrases. In English class I like the activities that involve having conversations with classmates about any topic because I think it helps me learn how to have an informal conversation and practice my pronunciation. I think English will be useful to be able to communicate with ot

On instagram I follow Mikel Balerdi (@mikel_balerdi_extremefilms), he's an independent body horror film director, photographer and painter, but he's not only the director of his films, he also acts, shoots and makes the special effects for them, he also do classes on how to make and work with bizarre special effects. For being an underground director, usually his films are released in festivals and a few cinemas. I've been following him for a couple of months, probably 5 months or so since I saw one of his movies. This movie that I saw is called "Larva Mental" which is about a man's own physical punishment for the guilt of his wife's death, in fact he plays himself in that movie. I think most of his movies deal with this theme of going from a mental conflict or guilt to a physical punishment and that's where he can put into practice these special effects that he does. I really like his versatility in this type of work since he creates the situations fo

Something I enjoy doing while I'm outside is walking, I don't know if it's an activity I planned in advance or something I started doing at an exact age, but I have the habit that if I'm outside for any reason I prefer to get to the places I need to walking, even if it's a long or a short walk. I like to walk because I can go thinking or talking if I'm going with friends or seeing the surroundings if it's a nice place or see things that other people don't always stop to look at. I like to take my time walking and relax while doing it. It doesn't necessarily have to be in nature or a specialized place to walk, it can be in any part in Santiago since I just like the fact of walking around and take advantage of saving the subway ride, although obviously if it's in nature is much more relaxing and I can better appreciate the view or animals. I do this probably every time I go to the university, if I have to go to buy something or get somewhere or jus
