For some reason my dad is obsessed with China so, lucky me, in 2017 he invited my brothers and I to a two weeks trip for the country.

Over there, we visit the known great wall of china in Beijing, the terracotta army in Xi'an and the bund in Shanghai, but what I liked the most was walking down a muslim street market because of its cultural mixing, the diversity of people and the shocking food.

Although it was amazing to get involved in a culture with thousands of years history and so different from what I knew, the reason why I remember this holidays is because of how many mishaps there were. During those three weeks, and due our dad clumsiness, we lost the luggages at the airport, the cash of all the trip at an hotel and our passports in the subway! For miracle, we ended up recovering everything, but it cost us fights, a hardcore police interrogatory and our faces ending up on a page of some kind of chinese Publimetro. Now I only can laugh about it and be grateful of this incredible experience:)

  Post 5 To be honest, I don't like to think about the future and adulthood, it makes me anxious. But if I can dream, in five years or so I would like to be a filmmaker, working in the photography and directing departments to be more specific. I see myself enjoying being on set, relating with people and friends as a collective. But I would not only like to make feature films or short films, I would also like to work on music videos and other film formats. Although I wish to travel with my job I prefer to stay in chile for a long while to be part of the national development of the audiovisual area, specially in this times that there so much going on and so much that needs to be done. Also, I don't see my education ending with the actual career I'm cursing , maybe the institutional aspect but not the idea of me keeping interest in getting new knowledge, I really would like to take workshops to help me with specifics film projects and curses related to other passions not e...

 Post 3 I watched a lot of cartoons from a young age, but one of my favorites was the Rugrats. I remember waking up early in the morning and putting on Nickelodeon while everyone else was sleeping in the house. My favorite character was Chuckie because he was the sweet one and didn't have his mother alive, so I felt very sorry for him. In one chapter everybody is celebrating Mother's Day and Chuckie doesn't know what to do until his dad reads him a poem that his mother made him, it's very cute but I always ended up crying. Later I switched Nickelodeon for Disney and became a huge fan of TV shows like Zack and Cody or Sonny With a Chance, but my favorites were Wizard Of Waverly Place and of course Hannah Montana, I followed the latter one to the end, including the movie that was released in theaters. The show was very funny but also had dramatic moments, I was at my limit when miley has to choose between his historical boyfriend, jake, or her new love, Jesse. I hope so...

  Post 1 I really would like to visit Bolivia. Mostly because of its diversity in landscapes and culture but also for the low cost due to nearness and money exchange. For what I know, the country is officially a plurinational state and it's located in the centre of South America, limiting with Brasil, Paraguay, Argentina, Chile and Perú. It shares differents geographic spaces like Andes Mountains, Andean Plateau or the Amazon so you can imagine the biodiversity of Bolivia. First, I would like to visit the well known Uyuni salt flats and from there go to Sucre to get involved in the history of the country. Then I would like to take a couple of days to see the jungle at the Amboró National Park and, finally, go up to the world highest capital, La Paz, and visit the near lake Titicaca For now I only would like to go in a long solo trip of a month or so, getting around on a low budget so I can know the most places.
