POST 5: My Future Job!

Imagen
Hi everyone, In this post, I'm going to tell you something about my future job which I really would like to get and that's biology teacher but also I want to work in investigation. At the moment I'm studying biochemistry and, in a few words, t he kind of job I would like to have is at some University or a lab, because I like basic investigation and I think that it's so important to work with professionals of different areas and to work with students! Talking about if I would like to travel a lot with my future job, I think could be a very interesting and enriching experience to work in another country. The reason why is that in different countries exist different teaching methods and levels of knowledge and also, it let you increase the number of contact with specialists of the multiples areas of science.  Biochemistry (at Universidad de Chile) is a very good option in view of this career is focused on the areas of Biology that are more important to me and which I like ...

POST 4: How Green am I?

Imagen
   Hi everyone, In this post I'm going to tell you about how GREEN  I am but also I need to say how ECO-GUILT I am, because it's important to reflect on this last point. Since high school I have learnt about environmentally friendly practices because teachers had a great ecological conscience which they transmitted in each of their classes. Besides, I think if we're friendly with the environment, we will enjoy a better life.  About my habits I can say recycling is, still, something difficult for me because I don't know how to begin. But I try to reduce this eco-guilt stopping using plastic bags and mainly with the care of the water. I take care of this when I turn on the shower or when I brush my teeth, in fact, usually when my mom washes fruits or vegetables she tends to waste water because '' she lets the water run''  and that's where I scold her! haha. In my family, we don't have a car but personally  I prefer to use the subway  for the sake ...

POST 3: My Favorite Cartoon Character!

Imagen
  Hi everyone, In this post I'm going to tell you something about my favorite cartoon character (mainly during my childhood) which is a classic cartoon network series: Courage the Cowardly Dog :-) If you don't know who Courage is, I can tell you that the character is a pink dog that it's in charge of taking care of its owners, Muriel and Justo, when evil stalks them in their home located in the middle of Nowhere. I really like this character because it creates a kind of paradox between its name and its attitude during the plot. But what do I mean with this? The dog is called Courage  but at the beginning of each episode, he is very scared of approaching to the particular enemies of the plot and  when their owners are in danger, he transforms all that FEAR  into COURAGE, in order to protect mainly Muriel.  As I said before, Courage  must face very particular enemies which cause the series to be scary because they had particular personalities and expre...

POST 2: My Life Sound Track!

Imagen
  Hi everyone, In this post I'm going to tell you something about a musical subgenre which has a great impact on my life:  neoperreo.  This is a reggaeton subgenre and i f you like this kind of music it's important that you know what is neoperreo or maybe you have heard about  it  before but you don't know what it is. The most representative person of this kind of music is Tomasa del Real, she's a Chilean singer of this subgenre and who gave  neoperreo  that name. This music mixes the classic beats of reggaeton but it tries to go further with other vibes for example funk carioca, electro, in general #latinvibes . These new sounds have left a mark on my life, more than a particular song, because it is something new to me, and this subgenre is not only the music but it's also an interesting aesthetic proposal included in the new digital age :) Some of the artists around the world who sing  neoperreo , in addition to Tomasa, are Ms Nina, Bad Gy...

POST 1: The Best Place I have been!

Imagen
Hi everyone, in this post I'm going to recommend you an interesting and beautiful place which you should visit if you can!  That wonderful place I mentioned before is SALTOS DEL PETROHUÉ near Lake Todos Los Santos. Todos Los Santos is a lake located in the South of Chile (Los Lagos Region) near Puerto Varas City. On summer vacations, I usually go to my uncle's house in Puerto Montt and I like to go there a lot because we visit (as a routine of every year) this wonderful place with amazing landscapes! I could say it's so difficult to go there without a public/particular transport... The reason of this, Saltos del Petrohué is in the middle of the road, inside a national park called Vicente Perez Rosales ; after arriving, you can walk in the reserve by different ways which let you see different landscapes where you can take very nice photos and also, of course, connect with nature. As I said before, the surroundings of this area of national reserve are incredible and if you a...
