Post 4: My Favourite Cartoon

When I think of my childhood, one of  the first memories that came to my mind are the cartoon series that I used to see. I have many favorite cartoon series, but this time I would like to talk about an animated serie created in Chile! In fact, the first Chilean cartoon made under traditional animation; Diego & Glot.  Even though i was 8 years old when this serie released, it  touched something deep in me, it was the first time that i saw a cartoon based in my own country (I was used to seeing series made in USA). I think that is the main reason why i like it, besides, the cartoon showed a large number of characters, places and Chilean culture.

In particular, “Diego & Glot” tells the story and adventures of Diego Plá an 11 year-old-boy, his family, friends and of course “Glot”, his iconic green mestizo dog (a chilean "quiltro"). If you don’t know the cartoon, i recommend that you take a look at the intro, it’s amazing and you’ll understand everything that i said.

I used to watch the cartoon every weekend on TV on channel 13, and i loved it when they showed my favourite episode named "Holidays", when the family of Diego and his friends went on holiday to Chiloé !!! Ironically portraying everything about the magic, stories and landscapes of southern Chile. It’s a wonderful episode and today is on YouTube! :-)

The best concert i've been to: Blur

Imagen
For me, music is an important part of my life,  i've been in many concerts, in fact, the last concert that i went, was in March of this year.  If i had to talk about "The best concert i've been to" i couldn't make just one choice, it's so difficult to me because i've been in the concerts of my favourite band's and singer! However, today i'm going to talk you about my first concert of my favourite band ever.  One of my very best concert experience was seeing "Blur" for the first time in Santiago on November of 2013. It was the first time of the band in Chile. If you don't know, Blur is a famous British band, icon of the "britpop" of the nineties, his singer is the famous songwriter Damon Albarn (singer of "Gorillaz" too). If you like to dance, melancholy, joy and a lot of emotions, Blur is for you!!! The concert was very special, all the fans was crying  and excited (most of the people had 20-30 years or mor...

Post 5: My Future Job

Think about the future is a thing that doesn’t work so much for me… As you know, today I’m an anthropologist student, so I guess that my future job will be guided in this particular line. Although i’m not 100% sure of what major subject I’m going to choose (Social Anthropology or Archaeology) I would like to imagine a job where I can be “free”. In others words,   work outdoors, out of the city, perhaps   with communities of people, having an impact in their lives and help them and contribute to "create a better world to live". I wouldn’t like an academic job where I’ll spend all day in an office behind a computer, I would like to be with different types of communities or investigate extinct societies. As I said, I can’t choose between Social Anthropology or Archaeology because I’m interested in both specialties, if it were possible to do both things at the same time, I would do it!... Despite this I’m 100% sure that I would love to travel the most of the time, esp...

Post 7: Wild animals and pets

Hi everyone! In today's post, i would like to talk about wild animals and pets. First of all, i want to ask you something, do you consider yourself an animal lover? why? If you had asked me this cuestion a few years ago -five years ago probably- i probably woud have answered "not so much". You will wonder why i used to think that way? This is because, when i was a kid i never had a pet. I used to play with my cousin's dog but one day, he bit me really hard, so from that time i was very afraid about dogs and animals in general.  But now, if you ask me that, i definitely consider myself as an animal lover! I'm saying this because i met some people, like my boyfriend, who's open their heart to show me their pets and it was a beautiful and magic oportunity to me. Me, as an animal lover today, i totally disagree with the use of animals of medical researh and any type of animal cruelty. I don't think that the human being should make use of animals for...
