Greetings to all, having a good week.

I like Santiago.

Hello everybody.

Well, this is the city that i chose to study, and leaving aside the problems to major cities, I think that this is a great city. Every day you have something to do, instead in my city no, the truth is that it is a bit boring.

I like Santiago because is a city with culture, entertainment, public transportation works day and night, there are many parks, it’s near the mountains and beach.

I think there are many interesting things to do in this city, for example visit the Cajón del Maipo by nature and beautiful landscapes.

Other place is The Palace of La Moneda and some remaining buildings with history in down town.

I would suggest a tourist to visit:

-The Cerro Santa Lucía, hopefully on a clear and clean day to photograph the city.

-Visit the Cajón del Maipo  to do hiking or trekking, and horseback riding.

-Go to Museo de Bellas Artes and its surrounding area to visit the coffe shops.

Greetings to all and see you soon.

A piece of art

Hello teacher and classmates, today i'm going to talk about a piece of art that i like.


The piece of art is a painting from Pablo Picasso, and this is called Guernica, it name is because Picasso painted it a pairs of month after of bombard the city of Guernica in Spain, in the Spanish Civil War. This is a wonderful work painted on canvas and Pablo Picasso presented his work in 1.937 in the Paris International Exhibition by to have the attention of the people in relation to the things than was happened in Spain.

I saw this work for the first time when i was a girl, and i saw this piece of art in a diary of my sister, this was a diary about painted and the most interesting was the Guernica and i liked it because this was the only one in black and white, all the others painting was in color. This painting was awesome because you could see as a puzzle.

And in those years was Franco in Spain, so Picasso opted to leave the Guernica in the MoMA (Museum of Modern Art) in New York. And he want that the painting should go back to Spain when return the democracy.
And today the Guernica is in Museum Reina Sofia, in Madrid.

Bye bye and good weekend.

A entertaining game.

I like a lot of board game as Ludo, Chess, Pictionary, but the most interesting and entertaining game for me is Attack also named Risk, a game of global domination.

I learnt to play this game 2 or 3 years ago, in my boyfriend's home with his nephew. In the game, you have armies, armaments and some territories or nations in five continents that you want to care and to protect from the attack of the others gamers, and the aim of this board game is to win or conquest territories to yours opponents and finally win the game with the one gamer who captures every country and continent in the board.

Now i not much play this game, because ever win the same persons, and this is not me.
But when i play i do it with my boyfriend, his nephew and his niece, and i never can to win, i think that this is because their play Attack a lot of years ago.

In spite of i never win, this game is very entertainin because is a game of strategy and i never boring to play,you can play this game for a lot of hours because you can lose your territories and after you can to recover this.

Bye bye classmates and techer.

A good book

This book was called Los Detectives Salvajes (The Savage Detectives) and i read four or five years ago, is very interesting and entertaining book. It was wrote for Roberto Bolaño in 1998.

The young finally is part of this movement and finish left his study of laws, his family and tell how he begin in the sex and how begin write poems. The second chapter was called The Savages Detectives, and tell diferent tales of two poets, who was the leader of the Movement of literature. And finally, the third chapter is The Desert Of Sonora, and here continue the story of Juan García and his friends poets, they was looking for a woman, Cesárea Tinajero, who was the leader of other movement of literature born in 1920.

One of my ambitions

Hello everybody, this week i want to talk about an ambition that i have. One of my ambitions in this moment of my life is to travel to Australia and stay in that place to live for a while.

I would like achieve this ambition because is something that i want from a lot of years ago. And i like to travel to any place unknown.  And when i was a girl i saw a Kangaroo in the zoo and my dad told me that this animal lives in Australia, and then i wanted to know this country.  Time after i saw a tv program from Australia, and in this program showed the sea and the desert, and the landscapes were really beautiful.

This ambition is like a dream of child, because really started from a situation so simple.

To fulfill this ambition would mean to me to do something i’ve wanted for a long time, and i hope can go to live or to visit this country continent soon, because after fulfilling this ambition i will have to find other ambitions to fulfill. But before, i want to travel through of Chile, specially the South and the Islands.

Bye bye classmates and teacher.

Favourite Beach or Coastline

Dear teacher and classmates, today i am going to talk about a beach that i like to me, because really is not my favourite beach.

The beach is Canelillo, is near to Yacht Club of Algarrobo. I went to this beach in august of the last year when my boyfriend and me went to meet a new house of a friend, and someday we walk to downtown of Algarrobo and arrived to the principal beach of Algarrobo , Las Cadenas and walked by the way to yacht club, and finally we arrived to Canelillo, and like was winter, there aren't palmera sellers or ice sellers, and also the kiosk was closed.
So we were watching the sunset and took some pictures with my boyfriend.

This beach i like becouse is a little place and the sand is white and soft, and the better is that the water is calm -this is important becouse i don't know how to swim-, while the others beach like Santo Domingo or El Quisco there are a lot of big waves. Another reason why i like this beach is becouse don't have rubbish in the sand, is very clean and this is an important reason to me.

This place is near to Santiago, maybe i will go soon.
Bye bye.
