Valle del Elqui

Hi everybody

Today I going to talk about my favorite place in Chile. It´s kind of hurt to decide because I know just some places of this beautiful country, but I will choose of what I could visit. 

I´m from Copiapó, but this time I will trick it because my favorite place is Valle del Elqui. This Valley it´s located in Coquimbo Region. The Valley has little towns. The tree most important towns are Paihuano, Cochiguaz and Pisco Elqui. 

The first time that I visited Valle del Equi I went to Pahiuano, but my favorite town is Pisco Elqui. the first time that i went to Pisco Elqui I did it with my brother and my cousin. We camped and in the camping we meet to many people. It was a really nice trip.

I love Pisco Elqui, first, because it´s a small town and it´s really quiet and calm. The people are really friendly and welcoming. You can go out in the night to walk for the streets and you can be relax because everything are secure. 

In second place, I love Psico Elqui because it´s really beautiful and you can breath really fresh air. Pisco Elqui have a beautiful river, the Elqui river, and you can go to take a dip in that place. 

On of the things that I like the most it´s the night sky. I just love it. The sky are clean and you can see crystal clear the moon and the stars. It´s wondrous.

I´m planning to come back this year and probably I will visit that place many many times. Probably there´s too many beautiful places in Chile, but Valle del Elqui have all characteristics that I look for a place.

PD: Like a advice, I have to say that the road it´s horrible. Although It have too many bends. Just a really good driver should drive for that way.

My best holiday

Hi Everybody

Today I will talk about my favorite holidays. When I was a little kid I traveled every summer to visit my grandmother. In my grandmother´s house the whole family was met. I don´t remember exactly when this holidays was but I believe that I was five or six when we started to meet in summer. 

My grandmother lived in Huasco, a beautiful port close to Vallenar city in Atacama region. We went to beach almost every day and we walked a looooong way by the border of the beach and we jumped and ran until get to the river. In that place we use to bath. It was a beautiful place, and I say WAS because now Huasco is all contaminated. It´s really sad :C

When we tired of bath and play in the water we went out the river and my mom with my aunts gave us tea whit bread or cake. And when it began to get dark we came back to my grandmother´s place. 

This holidays were unforgettable moments with my family and specially with my grandmother that five years ago past away.   

Nowadays, when I visit Huasco I remember my childhood and the beautiful that were those days :D 

My favorite dish

Hello

Everybody

Today I will talk about my favorite food. I love some ingredients that together taste wonderful. This ingredients are mushroom, coriander, garlic and onions. So I prepared them whit noodles and cream. Are a fabulous dish. I love this dish because every ingredient have a really strong flavor and when you cook them together you have a mix of exquisite flavors. 

The first time I ate was last year, when I get to Santiago. My mom never coked whit mushroom and cream. So, one day a friend told that we prepared the lunch. An then she got the idea that cook noodles with mushroom, coriander, garlic and onions. That was the day that I falling in love with this dish and every time I can, I cook this dish.

I recommend this dish, if you have time and wanting to eat something delicious, prepare this dish because you will enjoy it. It´s simple, ship and really easy to prepare. That´s my advice and I wish everybody eat this dish and be happy eating it like me :D

The Amazing Greece

Hi everyone!

Today a going to talk about a country that I would like to visit: Greece. This country seems interesting because I think that  it´s a place full of history and mythology and I love that. And I would like to know Greece because it´s a beautiful place (or at least that appear in the movies).

Since I was little I been studying european history, therefore, I know about the history and, as you all know, the importance for the western society. From Greece come from important philosophers as Aristotle and Socrates.Greece it´s really important of its economy, art, politics and many many others.

My dream is to visit the Parthenon and, in general, the Greece architecture. Also I would like to know the beaches and the field. In this manner I could mix the history and the beauty of Greece.

Although I think that Greece it´s a nice place I don´t change Chile for any other country. That´s the reason that I would like just to visit Greece, and also others countries.

Anyway, I hope to visit Greece some day.

Studying in the grass

Hi everybody!

I think that this semester has been a good semester so far and I hope that it continue like that. One of my best memory about this semester was a day that I studied in the grass. OK, you can say "Boring, you were studding". Yes, but was nice because I was really stress and I think that talk with my friends while I was studding helped me. We had too many test and task to do and also we were really tired. So we decided to go to the grass to study because none wanted to go to the library. In the grass I felt more relax and I could be more concentrate.

That day I learn that when you feel overwhelmed because of the study is better take a breath, talk with somebody about that and try to make the study a nice thing.

That`s one of my experience in the campus :D

The end of semester

 Hi Everybody!

Today I´m going to talk about the end of the semester. Yes, for almost everyone it is a really unpleasant topic, but end of semester it´s getting closer and we have to face it.

So, as we all know the ends of the semester in general are chaotic. We have many assessments and task in few weeks. In a couple of weeks we could pass or reprove our courses, so the pressure it´s too much. In addition it´s very cold and the days are shorter (that´s really personal because I don´t like winter, but there´re people that like that).

But I think that no every thing is horrible about end of the semester, here are some good things about it:

• You have a couple of weeks just dedicate to study and  all that stuffs, but after all you will can enjoy the holidays.
• You have the opportunity to get better marks.
• You have a reason to celebrate, your last test.
• You’re close to the next semester, a new opportunity to learn  new things.
• (And for me) Other step close to the summer :D

That´s are my vision for this end of semester, I wish that your end of semester be kind of relax and no too claimant.

Winter is coming!

Hi everybody

Today I´m going to talk about the winter. First, I have to say that I don´t really like the winter. As you know I´m from the north of the country and it is very hot. So I really love spring and summer, these are my favorite sesons of the year. But now is winter and I will try to emphasize the best of the winter.
The first thing that I like from the winter is that you can eat dried fruit because I love it, are just delicious. Other thing that I like from the winter is stay in bed all day when it´s cold and do anything.  

Sometimes it´s nice see outside for the window when it´s raining. I like toe at all chocolate in the word when it´s cold, maybe it isn´t a winter´s advantage but it is something that I do.


And the last rthing that i like from the Winter it´s Winter´s holiday :D Because I can go home and be with my family and friends. And also because be in Copiapo in Winter it´s lest colder tan be in Santiago.

There no many nice things tos ay about Winter but it´s always nice try to find the good thing from the things that we don´t like that much.
