POST 1 (WEEK 3) A COUNTRY I'D LIKE TO VISIT


I country I'd love to visit is Sri Lanka, also called "the Teardrop of India". I really enjoy a good cup of tea and I have a lot of knowledge about the types of this plant. I'd like to learn about the cultive and be part of those green and wonderful tea fields.
I don't know the language of Sri Lanka but I'm sure I can survive with english words. However, I'm open to the culture of the local people and their customs.
If I travel there, I'd like to go backpacking with my own route. I don't care if I go alone or with friends, because I can make them in the trip. I would work as a voluntary in an elephants shelter or being part of ecoprojects. I’m studying journalism, so maybe I could be useful with internet content or writing of touristic places on websites.
I would not like to stay in a fancy hotel, I’d prefer some local hostel or a camping. The weather of Sri Lanka is tropical, so probably I’d wear light clothing and sunglasses.
My dream is getting on the train, because I’d look all those amazing landscapes. I also would like to have real and near contact with elephants. And I’d like to know more of Buddhism and Islam religion, because there are very popular in this country.

POST 4 >> My favorite book

I don’t have a favorite author because I like to read more than one literary genre. However, I have to highlight some Spanish classical writers like Francisco de Quevedo, Luis de Góngora, Calderón de la Barca and others. They wrote in a very romantic way. This year I began to read some of Gabriel García Márquez and Julio Cortázar and I really like their style of writing. I think that I’m inclined to love stories. I prefer to read history books, or alternatively, based on true stories. I mean… world wars, feminism, hippie movement, Cold war, French revolution, etc. I like to know how was the human being in our past, his behavior and all the change we have experienced as society. My favorite book ever is “Like water for chocolate” of the writer Laura Esquivel. It’s a passionate love story based at the beginning of 20th century in some place of Mexico. I could read it a hundred of times. The last book I read is “The puppet boy of Warsaw” of Eva Weaver. It’s based on the Warsaw g

POST 7 >> MY BUCKET LIST

Imagen
Sometimes I think what I want to do before I die. The first activity I would include in my bucket list is travel. I would love to meet Scotland and their green highlands. It’s a very mystical country and I like that. Also I want to meet Japan because since I was a child I like their culture and actually, I know a little of their language. I would go to Kyoto and their famous themples. In some moment of my life (I don’t know yet) I want a minipig and a cockatoo as pets. Sadly, there’s no allowed the enter of this kind of pig to our country. I’ve done one of them. In the last summer, I went backpacking to Parque Inglés and Las Siete Tazas only with my dad (and bestfriend). Also, I met one of my favourite musical groups, Illapu. I talked some words with them and took a photo too. Because of a work, I could interact with exotic animals like snakes, pythons, frogs, chameleons, toucans, macaws, geckoes, tortoises, lizards, and more... It was a wonderful experience! I had to feed an

Post 6 >> POSTGRADUATE STUDIES

In the future, I would like to take some gastronomic course because I love cooking and I’m always looking for new recipes to try to do in my home. I think it would be interesting to take some course of Asian or Arabian flavours. Currently, I’m changing my daily diet and I only eat fish as animal protein. I would like to become myself in a vegan lifestyle but for now, I still eating eggs and honey. For this, I want to explore more about vegan food and how to apply it. Like I said, I would study international gastronomy so… I think the best choice would be travel to different countries and learn about their local food. For example, I love bitter-sweet food so it would be great live a few months in Thailand and learn of that. I also like spicy food, so I could travel to Mexico or Southkorea and know more about their tastes. I should study basic things of cooking in some course and then, travel and explore. Other thing that I would enjoy to do is learn about cocktail drinks.
