A Country You Would Like To Visit

We must eliminate the most dangerous border: the one we create ourselves...

Hello again my friends, today I will write about one of my greatest hobbies: traveling.
Some years ago I found by surfing the internet a travel blog called Marcando el Polo. There an Argentine couple tells of their experience of traveling through Southeast Asia at low cost.
As soon as I read one of their blog I fell in love with the few common places they visited and the relationships they established in each country. So from that moment travel became my priority. I want to know as much as possible, meet many cultures, many people and try a lot of food.

I can't decide for one country so I will talk about two that I want to visit.


The first is China a country with a millenary culture that has remained until the present. I want to visit places like "The Forbidden City", Buddhist temples, little towns and of course The Great Chinese Wall. 
Also I would like to spend a long time there, whether studying or working, I want to learn about the Chinese lifestyle and meet a lot of people.

My interest in China is so great that I am now learning Mandarin Chinese.

The second country I want to visit is Fiji a small island in the South Pacific Ocean. The reason I want to visit it is because my uncle was there 5 years living with the aboriginal tribes and the postcards he sent me looked beautiful. 
This island is known for its beautiful beaches and resorts, however, my interest goes much further... I want to meet its people and their customs like the ritual of Fijian Kava.

Changes To My Study Programme

Image
Hello people! This is one of the last blog that I'm writing this semester.  When I first entered this faculty I was very excited because study pharmacy at the University of Chile sounded great in every way. However, after a time of a studying here my thoughts began to change a little, I started to find many flaws around... One of these flaws are about the Study Program, I think that pharmacy is a really hard career. The days at the university are very long, it's practically all day, so if I could change anything I would shorten this because I think that some classes have too many hours and aren't taken advantage like calculus. The long day also negatively affects the students because most of us live very far away and we lose hours in traveling to the university and when we arrive home it's only to continue studying. I know that If the day were shorter we could take better advantage of our time. About the subjects that I have to study, I think that it's a li

The best concert ever...

Your light is reflected now, reflected for afar... -Light years, Pearl Jam Hello beautiful people! Throughout my life I have had the opportunity to enjoy many concerts but the most memorable was in 2015 at the National Stadium. In May I heard on the radio the new about the Latin America Tour of Pearl Jam, I almost cried, my grandmother saw me all excited and gave me a ticket. I remember that I told my friends about the concert I asked them if they wanted to go with me, they said of course. If you don't have any idea about Pearl Jam I'll tell you about them... Pearl Jam is an American rock band formed in 1990, the band has 5 members, they lead vocalist is Eddie Vedder. The band is known for having a grunge musical style. If you have to know a little more about them I recommend that you listen this song. I remember that November 4 like one of the best days of my life, been there was amazing because the atmosphere was so intense and grateful because Eddi

Addiction: From Tea and Coffee to Drugs of Abuse

Image
Hi everyone! Today I'll write about addiction and drugs. When someone says the word "drugs", sounds like if only talk about hard drugs like methamphetamine or cocaine but there are a lot of drugs that we consume daily but since it's legal we don't see them as drugs, these are coffee, tea, alcohol, cigarette, acetaminophen, etc.  When I was a teenager I remember that I tried the cigar and I didn't like, years later my friends tell me that I tried it again and again I didn't like it, the reason? I don't like the feeling of sucking smoke... so you understand that if I don't like cigarette also I don't like marijuana. About alcohol I've tried and even though I like I don't usually drink, in fact very seldom do I do it. I've never gotten drunk.  I'm not acquainted with drugs actually but I can say that I'm addicted to one thing.  My addiction is green tea, this wonder comes from the millenary China, this type of tea i
