A field trip


 Hi bloggers, today I want to talk about field trips, because they are one of the best ways to live your career as nourish and complement the essence of geography in itself.  The field trip to me, is  more than this, is, at the same, one of the most important reasons to I choose this career, and i think that all the  time.  I really enjoy travel, explore and learn about different realities, things, and i enjoy when we have to go to beautiful places.
I remember in my childhood, I always enjoyed being outside, travel and hear the echo of my voice in the broader landscape. But to be honest, I never projected studying this race, which now seems remarkable from this point of view.
Indeed, I have not been on so many tours of the university, but one that I remember, not only because it is the latest, but because it was a great experience, is the journey of the kind of geology, for more or less 2 weeks.
The journey started in  the  locality "Los Queñes", in the Cordillera de Los Andes. I remember that, in the travel, we follow the structure of  river,  from the mountain to the ocean, changing the names of rivers, and for a moment two rivers and then converted into one, are Rio Claro / Rio Teno and Valley was Mataquito River.
We spent all day in this place, and the evening went to the locality "Hualañe" located in Nelspruit, in the Cordillera de la Costa. There, we stayed at a small school, where we spent a fun night of "San. Juan" : D! , To continue the next morning following the shape and direction of the river to the ocean, the beach "Iloca" where we have lunch. After that, we visited the mouth of the Mataquito in the Pacific Ocean.

Finally, we went on the bus, but took too long to get home, and we were already exhausted. I arrived at 21.30 hours at my house and my legs ached too. The next day to get to English 3!; delayed as usual.
But, it was a beautiful, fun and rewarding journey!! :) <3

A song :)

Hi bloggers; one of my favorite songs, and probably one of the most significant is "Óleo de una mujer con sombrero"  from Silvio Rodriguez, but is only part of the list of songs I like, the first time I heard this song goes back to the days of my childhood, prosperous and beautiful time, in which my parents were still together.

Is one of the songs that have generated more impact on my life,but not  for its content, or because I feel completely identified, if not that, for some reason, always makes me feel family shelter, maybe just because I associate with my childhood and my parents listening to it while I played with my neighbor in my backyard.


Probably, this is one of the most beautiful songs and simple at the same time representing the idealized love in its most wonder expression when this love is consummated, and not dependent on other variables that society imposes.



at the same time, I remember my ex boyfriend, played on guitar, and we sang that song together, the good thing is that I always had the clarity of that song was more associated with my childhood, that a specific romance, but i do not deny that it was beautiful sing it in that context.
well, on that, no further comment, only I must confess that I love this song.

A good friend

Hi  bloggers;  today I  want  to talk  about an  important friend;  she is  called Carolina, and is a 2nd year student of psychology at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, actually, this prevents us to meet both her ​​and my other friends who are equally important, and thankfully, they share the same group.
I remember I met more or less 3 years at the time of school that year, I experienced the radical change, from a free school and mixed, to a girls' school, a strict Catholic school, creator of "good girls ". I also remember that we became closer when we are asked to create a speech for a more or less formal occasion.

With respect to what we have in common?, Well, first we are both passionate humanism, philosophy, parties, and together with my other friends, we were happy with the simple moments, stupid jokes and details; passionate about music; and guitar.


*she is the girl with a red hair :)


Probably the distance, the University, responsibilities, and some political differences that are not abysmal, as they have similar approaches, have made and we do not see that often, but we maintain a friendship and a bond that still does not lose cohesion and strength, except that output is maintained once a month, or conversations via Facebook.

A web site

Hi bloggers, today i want to talk about my favorite web site; well; that is a very difficult choice, because i don´t have a favorite website; but, at the same time, i considered one; and probably, this is one of the best web sites on the internet. 
  Well, that depends of the context.  What is?, why I like it?, How often do I visit this page? What makes it better than other sites?.
First; Google is one of the best known search pages in the world, is the most common, and that from him, I can solve various doubts, seek academic information, search for images, see general inquiries, and even idiots occasionally, among others. Anyway, I like this page, because it is like  the brain that I never had J.

 I visit it quite often, because I always want to find quick answers, instructions and summaries of certain texts, but in fact, in many cases is just a way to kill time with Facebook. What does it better than other sites?, Because, mostly, is the simplest and recurrent access to sources of information, however useless it sometimes.
I repeat: google is like a brain that i never had! :)

A place to visit in Chile

One of the places I remember most and would like to visit again is Valdivia, located in  the river´s region,  This is a wonderful place that you should know, due to his enchant.
 I like this city, because I have many memories in there. I remember that my grandpa, always play with me in my uncle´s house in Valdivia, and also remember that always went with my cousin to the handcrafted fairs, and already more teenagers, to other entertaining places, with a refreshing handcrafted beer.  In this  place  you can do many things;  due to, this  is  a wonderful place to enjoy with the family and friends. For  example, you could go to Valdiana´s night, one of the  prettier nights in the Calle-calle´s river. Also the " Week Valdiviana ", which distinguishes to the city as a center of tourism in Chile; even more with this impressive event. Also, you could go to the cinema festivals that the city offers. 
The first time that  I visited this place, was about 1998, when i was 5 years old; with my  grandparents. And the last time was in February on 2010, in fact, I lived through the experience of the earthquake in this place.

A photograph


This  photo is one of my favorites from when i went  to  the beach in this  summer; with a group of  friends...
It was taken  by me.
The photo shows a common and relaxing day  in the  beach;  when we had to  decide down to the beach  without the guys, and relax meanwhile we  made up  the lost time. These adorable boys, who, though they don´t appear in the photo, also are excellent friends and, at the same time, an unconditional support.
I choose this picture, because it  brings  me back many memories. recollections  of  a fantastic  day in  the   beach, and  a long and beautiful night with my friends in the bonfire. with  the guitar, and  melon with  the wine to give it a funny  touch to  the  night.
I  remember  that was one of my prettier days, thanks to this girl who is in the photo, one of the most wonderful persons that I have known; She is one  of my  best friends; because she has  the aptitude to turn the most tragic situations, in the most ideal opportunity to learn of the mistakes; that sometimes was so much own, and other times,  foreign.

A common day in the underground of The City


















The meter is hostile, Alienating and I only have advanced some steps, to try approach a car. Each one advances mechanically, connected to the cell phone, to the window in abstract...Only it´s enough to observe during a few instants around me, to perceive the deficient communication between Citizens; with aggressive attitudes and offended wills.
Though this one is a common space, undoubtedly, there is one break in the sense and the effect of the human interrelationship, an increase of the lack of communication, being, increasingly the persons with problems to communicate.
The requirements of the society, promote the individualism, before the collectivity and the family, establishing that the success doesn´t need from others, producing one break in the sense of the human interrelationship.
Our age, governed by the accelerated pace and individualism, generates an insurmountable barrier, that prevents a full introspection between the beings that must communicate. Due to the excessive work, the stress, the TV; up to parents and children, they turn in unknown persons between themselves, which overcome his lack of communication with occasional and brief conversations.
Probably, that is a simple observation, but, it is undeniable that our attitude should generate a personal, familiar and social opening to the effective communication. Disconnect us of a culture of masses that “illusorily reports to us" and to return us to be charmed with the words.

Hi  people:
Today,  I would like  to tell  about a journey,  that was  so important  for me.  In the  year 2008,  When I  was a student,   I visited  Chiloé, specifically the Chonchi´s locality,  with  my  school friends , I visited it for  eight days; with  the  intention  of  helping a   children´s boarding school and  to reconstruct it.  I remember  that I was  15 years old,  and that I was travelling in a bus.
Well,  one  of  the  things  that I most remember about that,  were the happy faces of these nice creatures,  when they received us. I  also  remember, that we organized ourselves in workgroups, as much for the local repair, as for the care of the children.

That was  one  of the  best experiences of  my  adolescence,   because  it was  so  beautifull,  exciting and  so much  fun, due  to the  fact that   I stayed with  my friends,  and all  the  nights was funny!!.

 Hi people,  One of the books ,  that are of mi  interest,  is the  called “ el engranaje” of  jean  paul  Sartre, published in 1942,  i read it, about  five  years  ago,  in age  of  school, due to my father´s recomendation. The novel shows to a revolutionary leader whose “purity of intentions” corromped for the exercise of the power. It is a significant text that approaches fundamental topics in Sartre's work: the freedom and the contradiction, beside raising, the crux of the determinism in the human occupation.
It´s so much interesting, to apreciate how involved these fictions of a theme and a  metaphysical concerns, that are, the central focus of the work, in addition of his opening to a form of exciting story. Anyhow, the work was somewhat unfinished, so you see at that time, that not like me at all.
This novel, so much time Despised, is probably, one of the best writings of the philosopher French existencialist.
