Blog 1: A country you would like to visit


Definitively I would like to visit Mexico. I believe I've had this idea for about 4 years, so I am really interest and exited with the opportunity to travel to this country someday. 

I think what interests me most about Mexico is its culture, mainly the traditions relad to "Day of the Dead", because this day is celebrated in a very different way than in Chile. In addition to this, Mexico has beautiful landscapes such as beaches and cenotes, I really like the places nearby water as sea, river, or lake for example, these places are truly relaxing. Finally, another reason what I would like to visit Mexico is because of its pre-Columbian history. Human groups such as the Aztecs and Mayas settled in this territory, and there are remains of them, such as pyramids. 

I know little about Mexico, mainly because of movies, series or generalities that are said about the country, so if I get to go to Mexico, I would like to try with the least amount of prejudice to learn as much as possible about the culture and its people. However, it could be affirmed that in the territory currently occupied by Mexico in pre-Columbian times, cultures considered as "great civilizations" such as the Mayas and Aztecs settled in the area. In this context is that in Mexico the maya ruins known as: Chichén Itzá, are considered a wonder of the world. 

For now, I think I would like to visit the country as a tourist to get to know the tourist attractions in a calm manner. In this sense. I would really like to know the beaches of Cancun, Chichén Itzá, and some cenotes. However, I am not closed to the possibility of going to study a postgraduate degree in Mexico.

How Can Your Major Make the World a Better

  I am studying anthropology, I think one of the reasons why I chose this career is because since I discovered its existence I thought it was the way in which I could make a contribution to society. I consider that motivation and vocation are the most important things to be able to make a contribution with the work I will do in the future, and I hope that anthropology will allow me to do so. I believe that anthropology in essence allows us to expand our way of seeing the world, allows us to put ourselves in the place of the other, and indeed to be more empathetic with others. It is from empathy, I believe, that changes can be initiated; it is vital to understand the ways in which others live in order to be able to help them effectively. In the case of archaeology, I really like the idea of being able to reconstruct the past, and give voice to many events, people, groups that have been ignored until now. In short, anthropology provides multiple tools to understand others in a resp...

My favorite piece of technology

  In definitive the laptop is my favorite piece of technology.   I remember when I was I child I spend a lot of time in front of the computer in my house, I liked playing games, watched music videos and pictures about the universe. But when my family was able to buy a laptop for the home, my enthusiasm for this piece of technology only grew, because I found it fascinating that now I could do the same as on a computer, and that it would be easier to take it with me. Due to the pandemic, I generally use the laptop at home, specifically at a desk. However, before the pandemic when I had to go out for long periods of time, I always made sure to take my laptop with me so that I had everything I needed. I currently use the laptop mainly to connect to online classes, because the pandemic has made it impossible to have face-to-face classes. Besides this, the laptop is important for my day to day, since I use it to organize all my responsibilities, I can be attentive to the mail, w...

A Photo and its Story

  This photo is from October 15, 2018 day in which I adopted my kitten. The arrival of my cat was like a great coincidence, because 1 days before with my family we had been talking about the possibility of rescuing an animal to live with us, and after analyzing it and realizing that if we can take good care of an animal, we decided to do it calmly. Coincidentally, a friend's mom called us saying that she had found a kitten dumped at the market, and that she needed to give them up for adoption urgently because they were in very bad health. So, I went out quickly with my cousin and when we arrived luckily, we still found two kittens, unfortunately the others kitties had died. That's how I found my cat. A vet had told us that it was a female, so for the first three weeks my cat was called Quimera Natti Natasha, until we found out in a check up that it was a male and his name was changed to Teodoro Ozuna. This picture brings me very nice memories, it was definitely a very goo...
