 I have never been a person who travels too much in Chile, during the year I am studying and during the summers I almost always work, but I remember that when I was 9 years old, I traveled with my parents and grandmother to Puerto Montt.  I remember that the reason I traveled to Puerto Montt was because I asked my dad: which is the cleanest city in Chile?, and my dad told me it was Puerto Montt, and since I didn't know that city, my dad took me there in his car. I remember that the trip lasted about 10 hours and that we went through many tolls. When we arrived in Puerto Montt I thought it was very beautiful, I loved seeing its sky, which was very blue. I found that Puerto Montt was a modern city but it also had a lot of vegetation, it had very clean air, I remember that the only thing I didn't like about Puerto Montt was that it rained a lot there. The last time I traveled to Puerto Montt was 6 years ago, and it was because it was the end of the 8th grade field trip, and that ...

  I would like to talk about one of the most important people for me, my grandfather of my mother, Jorge or "compadre", as I liked to tell him as a child, it is very important for me, since when I was a child, I take care of me and it was like it was like If I were a father for me, since my father went to study at the University of Valparaíso, and my mother, who also studied a technical career in Curicó. I saw my mother almost always, but I saw my dad very little, we are from Pichilemu and at that time we didn't have much money. That is why I love my grandfather very much, because although she is not my true grandfather (my mother never met her true father), she became my best friend when I was a small child. He is a tall and strong man and is now a bit fat, has a strong character, but it is a love of the person, during his life he was a very hardworking man, but now he works leaving his own cabins. Today we talked little, but I have a photo of mine, when I was abou...

I started learning English at school when I was 6 years old, and it has always been difficult for me to learn to speak English. I remember that when I was a child I didn't like English very much, because it was very difficult for me, but later when I was already in high school I realized that it is important to learn English. I remember that when I was 16 years old I wanted to learn English so I started going to an English course, where my teacher Ryan taught me how to speak better in English. Nowadays I enjoy my English classes at FAU, I like the freedom we have to write a blog from the computer, I would like to practice more English outside of class, but I have a very complicated schedude, I am also always busy doing group work for workshop. I would like to continue learning English in the future, because I feel that it is necessary to be able to readd more information that is on the internet. I would also like to continue learning English because I would like to travel to Englan...

The Alchemist I have never been a big fan of reading, the few books I have read been because I have an exam at school about test, but a book that I read at school and that I really liked was The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. I have always loved adventure stories and treasure hunt, but this book is unique, because in addition being  an adventure story it is also a self-help book. The Alchemst considers it a self-help book because it talks a lot about dreams and how they are important for life and that you should never give up on getting what you want. In addition to this, The Alchemist has interesting story where the protagonist travels through different countries such as Spain, Marocco and Egypt. Also, this book has a very good ending. I Remember when I was 14 year old and I read this book. At first I wasn't very interested in reading it because I don't really like reading, but when I realized that the story had a background and also talks about a story of adventure and personal g...
