Free topic…

Well, today I would to tell you about the city where I was born: Villarrica. I chose this topic because I love the south of Chile. I know that many Chilean people would like to visit the Araucanía region of our country for the next summer.

 However, Villarrica is a magic place. During the winter or the summer; it offers unforgettable panoramas and wonderful landscapes.

The last holidays, I had the chance to practice kayak with a friend in the Villarrica Lake. While we were sailing, we could estimate the beauty of the Volcano Villarrica. During the course of the trip, we took many photographs.

In other occasion, we visited thermal springs in Pucón in the middle of the night. All the water came from Villarrica Volcano. Also, there were tourists from different countries.

In the center there were many Mapuche craft fairs. This way, the tourists can know their culture, the gastronomy, the Mapudungun language, the clothing, among others curiosities.

The pastures and the forests are essential feature of this zone of Chile. The beauty and the different green colour scheme make someone fall in love.

I would love to live there someday…

“A country I´d like to visit”

I would like to visit Egypt. Maybe this isn´t a country very demanded by the Chilean youth, or it´s difficult to think in a place to go on holiday as this (above all because of in this moment exists conflict in this part of the world), but I consider that it´s a very interesting and attractive country to know.

Well, I  have never travelled to Egypt, but I have seen beautiful images of desert landscapes, the River Nile, the Pyramids, ruins and sculptures. This country shows unique panoramas on the whole Earth. I would like to visit museums, go through those wonderful monuments, to know the hieroglyph and many other amazing curiosities.

If I were an archaeologist I would really like to go there for working. History, fossil, mummies and papyrus manuscript would be my source of work. Other option would be to study languages (English, French or Egyptian Turk) to go there and to know other people, their culture and customs.  It would be interesting to learn about the lifestyle of the people, the traditional music, what kind of food they consume, the education system, etc.

Definitely, Egypt is a beautiful country.

My ideal job

My ideal job would be to work as a musician, because I love to listen to music. When I was in secondary school I played the guitar in an instrumental band, and there were musical instruments such as acoustic ans electric guitar, piano, flutes, drums, violin, percussion, etc. We played different styles: classical music, rock, ballads, music of movies, etc. We made events and presentations to finish the year. Later, I learnt to play the piano, and today -sometimes, when I have a little time- I perform pieces and music sheets.  

Besides to get the musical instrument, to do this job is necessary to be disciplined, that is to say, you have to have a routine of exercises and practice, hopefully everyday, a couple of hours. It´s very important to be constant, patient, persistent- but above all- to show enthusiasm. I think that this is more important that to have a special talent. 

I consider that I´m a very disciplined and systematic person. Perhaps I´m not a great talent, but I learn quickly and I have knowledge and musical studies. Also, I love the music and I´m very happy when I practice or I play some musical piece.  

However, it´s very difficult to work as a musician in this country, because it´s non-remunerated work, and neither very stable.
