Someone I would like to meet

Hi Geo Bloggers!

Today I will write about someone I would like to meet. This is a serious topic, because it can be since my platonic love (ups), as far as my celebrity idol.

Not, really I’ve been a fan of Lionel Messi since I was about 15 years old. ‘Lio Messi’ is the best football player on the history of this sport. He play in “F.C. Barcelona” in Forward Position and every season he stand out in his team, he always make a lot of goals.

I’m so interesting in this person because I love football and he is the best on the world. So is logic that I would like to meet him. In addition, he is a modest person, he is like a boy, play football because he love it, and only think in this sport. I wish meet him and meet the entire Barcelona Team, to go to Champions League match in Europe and see to play all high-players.

If I meet him, I would like to talk about football, obviously, and about his history, how he was when he was a child, and how difficult is to be the best football player on the world. I would like to walk with him, and maybe play with him (although he will humiliate me). But all this things would be wonderful if I meet him sometime.

Finally, like I say before, I admire him because is unrivalled, is the best and I would like to see his feet fast movements with the ball, and his dribbles, etc. Definitely I would like to learn how to play better the football game. 

A Restaurant

Hi bloggers!

Today I will write about something so delicious, well, that is not beer, it is not love, is the food!! And In this case, I will write about my favorite restaurant that I go frequently to eat sushi. I like it because is a chip restaurant, especially in the lunch time, for example the lunch menu has a cost of 5400 chilean pesos, with dessert and soda, all included. This restaurant is named “Too Much” and sells beer, other lunches and in general Japanese food. It is located in Monjitas street #640 in the center of Santiago.

The layout of the restaurant is very simple, is a small restaurant with subway, white tables and decorated with red and black color things. This store saves me a lot of times when I dead for sushi food and in comparison with other sushi restaurants, is very chip. The last time that I went was three weeks ago, with my girlfriend.

However when I’m millionaire (only a little times, really), I love to go to Baires Restaurant, other Restaurant but so expensive, located in Brasil district.

When I have other cravings (yes, apparently I’m pregnant), like fried potatoes, or better that this, Chorrillana; I love to go to any restaurant or “picada” that sells me a delicious Chorrillana. But again, when I’m millionaire (ok, never), I love to go to Saint Patrick Restaurant, located in Brasil District too and decorated with things related with sports like Rugby. In this case, the last time that I went was the past year and I eat a giant Chorrillana (I’m a pig).

                                                       

A concert

Hi bloggers! 

In this cold day I will write about something that I don’t have a lot of experiences, my knowledge about the concerts is poor, because I never went to a concert until the year 2013 (yes, I was a bored person, maybe today I maintain this hahah).

Well, then today I will write about the concert I went in June of 2013 with my girlfriend to see Jorge Drexler in Teatro Caupolican. That was my first concert, so I had no idea about the tickets sale, the place that I went, only I knew about the singer, obviously.

I liked very much the concert especially the company hahaha. That was my first concert and always the first experience in something is amazing, so this case was not the exception.

In a future, I would like to go to a concert about my favorite’s music bands, for example maybe one of my dream is to see Blink 182 or Sum 41 in Chile. I know were popular bands in the 90’ but until today I love it. The past year in Australia there was a festival with almost all the bands I love, but the tickets for travel through the world and assist to this events are so expensive, a lot of money that I don’t have. Because of this, I wait for to work and take the cash for achieve my dream. I’m sure that when I have the enough money for this concerts, I will go to all the bands I love (if they keep singing, of course… please don’t die L )

A good trip (bad really)

Hi bloggers! Like you know, I study Geography and in this career is necessary go to field trips to different places for study the physical and human geography of Chile.

Well, in this post I will write about a field trip I went during my career. The field trip to Codegua, in Libertador Bernardo O´higgins Region was our first journey are definitely the best! (Worst really) until now. We went with Pablo Sarricolea and our loved (hated really) teacher Rodrigo Moreno. We visited different communes of the region like San Francisco de Mostazal and finally Codegua, two bored places and I complain every hour, we climbed a hill since we saw Graneros and all the landscape. Was the worst field trip until now, in fact I excuse from the next trip to the same place (really I maintained sleep in my bed). Imagine this trip, almost twelve hours and a little of this in the land, the rest of time we traveled in the bus, we slept and we bored… finally we died

Definitely I don’t enjoyed this journey but be used for learn about a neighbor region and for to know about the bored trips and our darling teacher Moreno. 

My Favorite Geography Subject

Hi everyone, this is my second semester on English class, so I want to start very good. Today I will write about my favorite geography subject, of course! Because I study geography and this preference is very important for my future as geographer, for my specialization too.

Generally, in the school teach us only the physical geography, like the importance of the Andes Mountain Chain or the Chilean Regions, all of this very important too but the Human Geography also. When I was in UMCE studying History and Geography, I understood this.

So my favorite geography subject is all related with Human Geography like Social and Cultural Geography, the Demography too, studies of Territory Conflicts (for example, the Mapuche Conflict), Urban and Rural studies but always related with Human Subjects. Actually I had only one: Cultural Geography with the teacher Enrique Aliste in the previous semester.

I love Cultural Geography because is related with a lot of disciplines like Anthropology, Sociology or History that I like so much. The studies about population and it relation with the space is so interesting. In addition is a low studied subject since Geography so I would like investigate much more in that.

Nevertheless, there are other subjects that I would like to study like Rural Geography but we don’t study yet. I live my childhood in the countryside and I would like to know it history and complexity.

Until now, I discovered the importance of Human Subjects in the Geography, the discipline is not only physical but a mixture of this two subjects and is very important to understand it relation and reciprocity.

A Walk

Hi everybody, today I’ll write about a walk that I did I would like to do again.

Well, if I must choose a place that I walked, I would choose the Quitor Pucara in San Pedro de Atacama. With my girlfriend I travelled to this place and in one of our trips we went to Quitor Pucara to some kilometers of distance, but only walking because buses and tours not travelled to these place.

So, it was an amazing walk because the landscape are so beautiful, the mud buildings in San Pedro is very old and I like too much. In addition, we seen a flock of sheep with a man that ordered with dogs! I only seen something like this in the T.V. but not in person. So after that, a sand whirlwind appeared and trapped me! (If I see you the true, the whirlwind was so small), and I walked in this direction, and other direction, and other and other again and the sand whirlwind follow me like an animal with it prey –ok, I’m exaggerating-, but in this moment I was really desperate because I did can’t breathe, but finally I survived.

Yes, my adventure is not really an adventure but I liked too much and I laughed too much too, well, the Quitor Pucara is amazing, climb this place is very cool and the history hidden in it walls is so interesting and show you the natives fortress! The travel is so tiring but be worth the effort.

I would like to do it again because I love the entire landscape of San Pedro and go to this place means go across all the others beautiful places. But I going to the Quitor Pucara again because I would like climb to the fortress peak and only close my eyes and enjoy the pure air of San Pedro –but please, without sands whirwind-.

A Job I would like to do

Well, hello bloggers, in this cold Wednesday I’ll write about a job I would like to do.

In my life, I did a lot of little jobs but nothing important, principally for my holyday’s money: I worked in a store house, an easy job for one month for my holydays too. Today I must say you that my dreamy job is be the best geographer on the world, visit and work in a lot of places, know about all physical and social things on the world, etc. But today I’ll focus in my dreamy job when I was a boy.

Yes! Because be geographer is so bored, as well as be an office worker or something else. When I was a little boy, my dreamy work was be an ambulance. Okay, you will say me: That is not a work! Yes, but was my dream when I was a child. Be the best ambulance on the world and save lives every places.

No, seriously a job I would like to do is a traveler guy, and visit every places on the world but not being a geographer, only be a reporter or something else and that some TV show or Magazine order me travel around the world making articles of China, Thailand, India, etc. cultures. I would like to do this job because exist a lot of places and cultures to meet in this life and I want to know every this things. For this job, you need the contacts for a sponsor that finance your travels, and the energy for go across every places (but above everything, you need the money). I would be good this job because I want this job with my all energy and my geographer knowledge help me to know about different landscape and cultures. My inspiration is someone like Ricardo Astorga because he has the contacts, the energy and the money to finance his travels for the world, really I would like to do similar to him.
