A country I'd like to visit

Hello! Today I will write about a country I'd like to visit. I want to travel around the world and visit so many countries, but always I think I should to start in Latinoamerica and the first country that I want to know is Ecuador. I choose this country as my first option, because I was hear good things about Ecuador, like that many places to know, the food is cheap and you don't need be rich for enjoy the travel, the people is very nice with the tourist and the people is different to Chile is so much sociable, but the special place I want to know (and is a more expensive to go) is The Islas Galápagos, the island where live ancestrals turtles, different species of iguanas and others animals very interesting for me.

When I go to Ecuador, the first thing I will do is visit to city to see the iguanas walking free in the streets, this is a new for me! In Chile is usual see dogs and cats, but not this type of animals! Second, I will eat any popular kind of food, I don't know what is the typical food in Ecuador, but there is a good moment to know that. Later, my special objective: go to Islas Galápagos. I imagine this place like beautiful beach with many rocks and over there the old turtles of many colours and type.

I would like to imagine possibility to live in a different country and Ecuador is a good option, but I think to I will miss to my family, my friends and my country, so only visit Ecuador the time of travel and I will search the second country to visit in the future.

Dream is free... :)

A movie that I love and a movie that I hate

Hello!! Today I wanna write about that movie that I love...and the movie that I hate.

I love watch movies, all kinds of movies, especially accion, drama and terror, but one movie that marked a before and after was V for Vendetta. This movie it's based on a comic that the same name and the first time I saw I was fifteen years old and I loved her from the first moment!! I think this movie is all my ideals. This film is about the man with the singular mask of a important historical character in this country (England): Guy Fawkes, that man many years ago try to burn the council to consider it corrupt and nothing fair. This is the reason that this man use that mask. And the movie it's based in a dystopia, where the state with a advice used biological weapond to remove political opponents...I think this is not far from our reality.



I' ve seen many films, but one that I hate, and I sleep soundly when it appears on Tv is Crepúsculo. What movie so bad!! Boring , unexciting , with bad performances ... has it all!! I can not there are people who loves this movie...I have not read the book and I think with this example of movie... I never will read this!!
Well, this is my humble opinion.
Cheers!

Indigenous community triumphs in suspending mining operations

Hi!, today I will write about an article of The Santiago Times. It's entitled: "Indigenous community triumphs in suspending mining operations", article published on October, 2014. Link: http://santiagotimes.cl/indigenous-community-triumphs-in-suspending-mining-operations/

This article says about the conflict of the communities of North of Chile with the mine of the corporation Goldcorp. What is the conflict? is about the contamination produced by extraction of minerals, in mines by foreign corporations, in others words, relates with ecological damage for example in rivers and contamination of water and also says about the invasion in the "sacred land" of the Diaguitas.

Why is this importart to Anthropology? Because it's about of indigenous community and your relation with the land, water and territory. Also is important to this discipline, because is a theoretical problem expressed in reality.

I think that this article is mainly informative and no contains references to experts in the field, but  tells about an unknown topic for many people and is a notice so much important (in my opinion) that other things that give on TV or newspapers.

Every picture tells a story...

San Antonio, Región de Valparaíso, 2015




This picture is of my holydays of this year with my best friends. The story behind this picture is very comic. In the summer, we all work so hard xD for become here. We were in the house of one of my friends in San Antonio for two weeks. 


This day, we outside to visit the "Cueva del Pirata", but we were wait 1 hour for visit...so we decided to get something to eat while waiting. There was a place where they sold empanadas and drinks so we bought five...and waited.


We have so much hungry!!! But were not ready the empanadas. We waited half and hour, and my boyfriend say: I'm going  to claim...and we were all annoying >:(. Short story: the empanadas never arrived :(. We asked money back..and the "Cueva del Pirata" was history, the hunger was bigger!!


Later, We laughed at what happened...we were waiting a long time for nothing xD, but the good point is that we take us many photos at the edge of rockery :)


So....every day it happened every story....Were a nice holidays.

A video clip that I like



When I was small child I saw this video for first time and I didn’t understand anything of the music and nothing of the video. Because this my sister and I were afraid to see this video for the part of the childrens falling into the meat grinde. Now I understand this part of video, but my sister prefers not to see that video again, Is a trauma for she xD

Whatever, after when I was so much older (adolescent) I heard this song again with the video, but I do not undertand completely the word of the song. Now, and in the past in the school, I know this great band, Pink Floyd, and this band become in one of my favorites with your song and video "Another Brick in the Wall”.

A small confession: I don’t believe in this Time, I still have not seen this movie of This Song :( This year I promise see that.

I never was fan of the technology, but I know the computer and the technology is very important today for read the e-mails and write reports in the school, job and university, and others activities.

I use my laptop everyday, for write reports and also I use Facebook...in this web I lost my time everyday. I often use to for watch videos in Youtube and watch movies.

I like my laptop, principally because is a present for my parents and also because is a very good work tool in this days is very necesary the technology for many activities.

I don't imagine my life without my laptop...is difficult imagine my world without technology in this days, but in spite of everything, I miss to be stay at the outdoors.

My expectations for this semester

In the academic...this semester I have eight subjects, I don't like all but I have to try to attend all classes. This semester, the topics of subjects is about the language and the relationships. Sometimes I get bored with so many theory, but others days I can find the interesting side.

The extracurriculars subjects is a only one, but is not sport and artistic, is a subject about discussions of the ethnic groups and the genre. It's interesting.

I don't do others activities in the university, but outside I go to a collective in a La Bandera. I try to go all the saturdays, in the morning. In this place, I work with little childs. Sometimes for example, I have to play with them...this is a very exhausting, but also is very entertaining.

My expects for this semester, in first place is pass all subjects and improve in the more difficults and in second place I want to enjoy the classes and participate in new activities.
