Photography

Hi people, today I am going to talk about photography.

I think the photography is a very special topic, because the photography is an art, and always are reason to talk about art.

I am a little geek with photography, especially analog photography; I have read a lot books about this topic, my favorite photography book name is “Camara Lúcida” by Ronald Barthes. In this book, the author talks about his interpretation of this art, even he compare the photography with the theatre in the way of take a scene in a determinate moment. In this text also he relate the photography with dead, he said every photography shoot is similar to a gun shoot, with this he said that every time, when someone take a picture of you, a little part of you stay in this picture, the camera take you part of your life. I totally recommend you this book.


My favorite photographer name is Sergio Larrain, he is a Chilean 60’s photographer and his pictures are about the people and their interaction with the city. I said Larrain is the most famous Chilean photographer in the world, his work has been shown even in the MoMA.


Here is an example of his book called “Valparaíso”, the most important of his career.

    It should be very interesting to read a book about photography, but I think I couldn't be able to understand it.

Movies and series

Hi guys! Today I´m going to talk about my favorite movies and series. About movies, this could sound a little childish but one of my favorite movies is Hercules, I think everyone here know this movie so I do not think I have to spend time telling you what it is the history, the thing that I most like of this movie is the soundtrack. Another big Disney movie is The Emperor's New Groove, the best of this movie is that it is inspirit in Peru, so the details are fantastic, I see it again the last weekend and I really still love it.   Another one of my favorite movies is Jurassic Park, that although it is a trilogy, I think that the best is the first. When I was a child, I had this movie on VHS and I saw it almost every day, the truth is I still know the dialogues from memory. I think the new movies called Jurassic World ruined de saga, as it happened with Star Wars. My favorite series are Friends, How I met your mother and That ‘70s show all these are

A country I'd like to visit is Cuba.

Since when I was a child my dream is know this country that is located in an island in middle of The Caribbean Sea. I like the tropical weather, more with the beautiful cuban beaches, like Varadero, El Cayo, Baracoa, etc.  I would like visit Cuba because the people is so different to chileans, they are happy, friendly, polite, and more. Another reason is their history, I would like to learn all about their past from the cuban eyes, because nothing is as taught in books. If I decide traveling to this country, I would like to do backpacking, because this way I would know inside de towns, not only tourist attractions. I want to know the cuban's lifestyles throughout the country. Last year a friend do this and she met Silvio Rodriguez and also she host in his house!! I know that the probability to this happens is almost cero, but you never know.  I want to know Cuba before the McDonalds arrive in the cities.

Hy guys, how are you today? Todays blog is about studing english. The truth is that I'm not a bilingüe, so studing english is hard to me, I can understand what people says, but write or talk in english is a challenge to me, specially for the conjugations, everyone says that conjugations in english are more easier than spanish conjugations, but for me is very hard to do that. In my free time I always watch movies or series in English and I almost understand everything, I do it to improve my English in a funny way, I love Vikings the series, they use a medieval English, so my vocabulary grown in a different way. Now I know different words about the medieval age and also helped me to understand more about history of that time. Another thing that I love of Vikings is their culture, their way of life, their loved gods.  If I compare the different ways to learn English I prefer to do it in different way to the standard education, for example, travelling and trying to communicate i
