Traveling

Hey there,
Well, we can write about anything today, but i’m out of ideas. So, I’m going to write about the same theme Belén wrote: My best holidays.
My family and I are always looking for spend good time together, take some rest from the work and studies and of course, meet new places. We just take this decision the last year, so the four of us had traveled to places like San Pedro de Atacama, Valle del Elqui and Cusco.
I traveled before with other people, to Argentina and Brazil. Those were pretty good experiences but I must say my favorite holidays ever is the one in Cusco with my family. They never went to another country before, so it was great for them.
In Cusco, we learnt a lot about history, Incas, Spanish soldiers and stuff. Also, we eat some new food like alpaca and cuy meat, it was delicious! We met awesome tourists during the trip and our hotel was just amazing.
I think the best thing we can do is travel around the world and meet new cultures. I always try to taste everything unknown for me, maybe do some extreme sports (like the time I tried tirolesa in Brazil). You must try it!

Mad Men

Hello mates!
Well, we have free theme now. So, I’m gonna talk about my favorite thing in the world: TV series. I really love the fiction programs,I’m always watching a lot of series like Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Parks and Recreations and many more but my true favorite TV show is Mad Men.

Do you know Mad Men? Well, if you don’t, I can tell you about it. Mad Men is a drama series based in the New York of the 60s. There is an important advertising firm with the finest publicists in town. The main character is Don Draper, an extremely attractive man who is the biggest creator of all the campaigns an also, a person with serious past troubles. The series talk about him, his problems with alcohol, his relationships with women (a lot of women) and of course, with his coworkers and job.

I think the prettiest thing in Mad Men is the script. I mean, literally all the phrases in an episode are like, big quotes. But I can’t be unworthy of the great investigative work. The ambience, the props and scenery are just brilliant. I can perfectly imagine how would it be to live in the 60s America. In summary, Mad Men is the perfect radiography of a country and its specific historical facts. If you wanna know about the JFK’s death, Martin Luther King fight and Vietnam War, you should totally watch this show. 100% recommended.

Dreaming big

Hallo!

According to Google Translate, Hallo is a word that means hello in Afrikaans. Yep, Afrikaans is one of the languages you can speak in South Africa, the country I’d love to visit.

I started to have interest in South Africa since a few months ago. Well, of course before this I knew about Nelson Mandela, the Apartheid and stuff, but now, I can see South Africa like a real country, I mean, closer to me (not in history books).

I discovered a band called Die Antwoord, because a friend recommended me to listen them. I fell in love with them (you must listen them too!) and I decided to investigate more and more. I finished watching a lot of movies about South Africa, reading about the countercultures in the country and listening all the South African music I could find. I couldn’t enjoy more that beautiful country, its culture and history.

Of course I’d like to visit it and even live there if there is a chance. First, I’d like to go on vacations, finally meet the streets of Cape Town and forget about all the prejudices about Africans countries. Then, I’d like to study there. I don’t know anything about South Africans universities, but I’d like to investigate it and become a student of South African history. My impossible dream is to live in South Africa and from there, travel to know the whole African continent.

That’s all folks! See you next class.

Ideal job

This time,I’m going to write about my ideal job. I think you all will agree with me if I say that my ideal job is being pay for watch TV. But the truth is that I’ve never thought about it at all.
However, I’m studying journalism because I think I can find my ideal job in this area. I mean, if you are journalist, you can work in anything you like. Engineering, health, art, politics, I mean, literally anything.
Well, talking serious, when I grow up I’d like to be an important documentary filmmaker. I think is like write history with a camera. Maybe it’s no so difficult to find a job like this, but could it be hard to make good money and be a serious professional.
I don’t know if I would be good for this job, but I’m in love with it and maybe I could make it work. I think that a really good filmmaker would be responsible, patient and orderly, of course. You must be vigorous and know how to work in team.
This dream isn’t impossible. Maybe someday I will be reading my old blogs and I’ll find this and laugh about it.
See you!
