This summer

This summer will go to work in valdivia, working in the place where you will always be for vacation is a good choice when not together money before. in valdivia, I'm going to visit some friends I met two years ago when I travel. It will work in the Café of the brother of a friend I met at University in my first year,
the work is not very heavy and gives time to do other things. Valdivia is characterized by its traditions rooted and multicultural, linked especially Mapuche indigenous peoples, as well as the influence of Chiloé national, from immigrants and other sectors of the centre and south of the country, and international, especially spaniards and germans. Valdivia has a fluvial and oceanic climate, this allows that a Valdivian rainforest there is, the city has rain all year round but in summer is less. When i finished my month in valdivia it return to ovalle, I find my friends from the city to go to the beach or in the elqui Valley, these places are very close. Elqui Valley is very close to the serena, is a line of people going towards the mountain range, It is a good place to go for camping with friends, there are many campsites. There are many small beaches in the region that are very good, it is not very expensive to be to guanaqueros and tongoy for a few weeks if you're going with more people. This was my plan for this summer.

Malcolm in the middle

When I had twelve years old my favorite series was Malcolm in the middle.I passed a long time in front of the TV looking this serie. Malcolm is a Tv show from EEUU, It is a common family storie, parents and children. I really liked this serie because the characters were very funny. Malcolm the principal character in this history is a intelligent guy, he need to survive in a crazy family. His parents are exploited for the system and always seem to so stressed. He had three brothers men, with similar tastes who him, like sports, music and making bad things. the difference with he is who in the same time liked the science and literatur. In this contex malcolm is very wire, he need finded his place in the world. He stay in a class whit other intelligent guys in the school, Malcolm helps the nerds to survive, he is from another world and  can understand why the people is different. I enjoyed to see as the related in his world, He was different but it was also normal. Maybe I felt same who malcolm when I was a child,  I like differents thing in comparison whit a normal child.

Philip-Lorca diCorcia

I do not study visual arts, but I can speak of the work of an artist.Philip-Lorca diCorcia was born in 1956, is an american photographer. He studied at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Afterwards diCorcia attended Yale University where he received a Master of Fine Arts in Photography in 1979. DiCorcia alternates between  snapshots and iconic quality staged compositions that often have a baroque theatricality.Using a carefully planned staging, he takes everyday occurrences beyond the realm of banality, trying to inspire in his pictures spectators an awareness of the psychology and emotion contained in real life situations.His work could be described as documentary photography mixed with the fictional world of cinema and advertising, which creates a powerful link between reality, fantasy and sad.His photographs would then give a sense of heightened drama to the passers accidental poses, unintended movements and insignificant facial expressions. Even if sometimes the subject appears to be completely detached to the world around him, diCorcia has often used the city of the subjects name as the title of the photo, placing the passers-by back into the city's anonymity.

Mexican Food

Cooking is an art, you manipulate materials as artists, is working on an idea. I like the food in general but My favorite food is the mexican food, I like everything that comes from this place. The most important thing in the Mexican food is the taste, they use many condiment. The color of ingredents is very flashy, it is very interesting to see the colors of the plateful, food colours attract attention. I like mexican food because is very spicy and delicious, I can eat a lot and not feel satisfied. I think the mix of meats, vegetables and avocado is what makes the delicious Mexican food. The taco for example is a mix with meat, onion, guacamole, chile and tortilla. The quesadilla is very similar but has cheese, when you cook you can put other ingredients if you want. Another type of preparation is the enchilda, this plate has chicken and a lots of veggies, when they put mushrooms is very delicious. Maybe the Mexican food is the best in america, the amount of ingredients and flavor makes it very special.

My best holiday was last year. I visited patagonia only for a month in February. I visited this place because I have friends in Punta Arenas, is more the cheap when I stay in their homes. I did much trekking and visit some small cities for example Port Natales. I visit many parks on the bike from a friend
but the wind makes it difficult to ride a bike. I drank a lot fernet on these holidays, people have many Argentine influence in this place. When I went to torres del paine buy a mate, I became such a fanatic that I drink up to today

Blog

In my opinion I think that it was a very good exercise to write in english. When you can write many of these issues required to use much vocabulary. The first exercises were difficult for that forces you to think of a good wording in another language, We try to write as we could make it in spanish, but it is very different. I can now understand more things in english that I also write it. In Spanish when we read we can write better, in english it is similar, but I believe that writing also helps to read english. It is interesting to also read what you write your classmates, we studied art but we have different tastes regarding that. I had never used a blog before and it was pretty fun, have a space to write good many times. Maybe in the future create a blog to write about anything, I'd like to write about places I will visit for example. The world of the blog gives you many possibilities, this is new for my. Generally like people talk about good experiences, the blog allows you to capture that. This was a very good exercise to practice my English.

British Museum

The best museums in the world are in Europe, London has the British Museum. The British Museum was established in 1753, is a museum dedicated to human history, art, and culture. Its permanent collection, numbering some 8 million works, an of the more of the world's largest. You can spend a day inside the Museum and maybe not see everything, It should be a great experience.
This museum was heavily criticized for having part of the treasure of Egypt, until today they have not reached an agreement. If someday travel to London I will visit this Museum by its history.This museum to changed for a long time but today is a modern museums.
