I take this photo the year 2020 during the winter, the wheater is still very sunny some days for this the sky see clear haha  Well, i really like this photo because my dog is like a son to me and during the pandemic it was a great company for me and for all my family.

Changes to my study programme

I think that the years of pandemic COVID-19 showed us another perspectives and demands respects our careers. In particular the career of geography presented various dificulties in the online modality and i hope that can be compensated with the remaining time of the career. To started, is essential to be able to have more opportunities "field trips" because in this career is issential and due to the pandemic we lost many learning opportunities.  Respect of the infrastructure of the university, it's very negative to me that we don't have a geography laboratory available, that prevents us from being able to deepen in the contents, especially in the courses, for example, geology or geomorphology. Aso, I would like us to have more development in relation to technology, the courses we work with ArcGis and remote sensing it's very good, but i would like the university to have "fields trips" or outings for know work areas or seminars or research centers for deep...

Summer holidays

Hello! This time i will tell you about the place i would like to visit. Something that I iove about living in Chile is the diversity of its landscapes from north to south. There are unique little places in the world that are only found here. Since i was little i have wanted to leave my comfort zone and travel to the other end of the country. Chilean Patagonia is a place where i have often dreamed of going, well I have been to Coyhaique and its surroundings, but I would like to have the opportunity to arrive and visit the Torre del Paine National Park. The truth is a dream to comply for me. I can't even imagine the sensations that being there would give me, be so far away and surrounded by nature on all side is an idea that makes my head explode haha I would like to prepare myself phisical and menthal for make to some of the rutes, be it the "O circuit" or the "W circuit" to be able observe all the landscapes and obviusly as a future geographer apply all my knowl...

Techno culture

Hi! today i would like to talk about the techno culture, first the techno is a genre of music electronic that emerged in Detroit (United States) and Germany in the mid of years 1980. The origin of techno comes from house music together with the fusion of currents of european music, based on the experimental use of the synthesizer or the first electro. Added to this is the influence of a futuristic aesthetic and themes. In the case of detroit's sound was influenced by African-American music, especially genres like soul and funk. Personally the history the Detroid city it's the one that most attracts my attention because is related by in the 1950s, Detroid was one of the most prosperous cities in the United States, "epicenter of the automobile industry" and home to the main factories; Ford, General Motors and Chrysler. But towards the 1960s, with the transfer of the industry to countries with cheaper labor, the Motor City began to depopulate. Already in the 80s it was a...

Post graduate studies

Thinking about the future... the first thing i would like to imagine is finishing my career and begin working to gain experience for a time, maybe one or two years and later continue studying. I think in a diploma or master depending on my area of ​​interest. If it was a master i would like to do it outside of Chile for can know and to learn other looks about the geography. Also is a good opotunity of know other country, other forms of life, of cultures and take advantage of traveling. I would like in Brasil by latinoamerican, north American or some country Europe. But i still not clear about what would it be, it can be a social theme, about remote sensing, hydrology or geomorphology but as i said before in other post, the geopgraphy is very ample and i'm still discovering it.  Another idea that discovered recently, is finishing my degree and continue studying for two years more to be able to finish the university with my degree and a master in geography. I think that is a good ide...
