A trip to the South of Chile

The best holiday I’ve ever had so far, was in February this year. It was a trip my family and I had been planning a few months before. We wanted to go in a motor home to the south of Chile, that way we could visit a lot of places and it was a whole new way of traveling for us. I actually don’t remember very well exactly where we went each day, I remember of course all the places that we visited, but not in order. And I know it hasn’t been that long since we went, but my memory is reeeaally bad L.

Back to the trip, we did go.  We invited our cousin too, so there was six of us. The whole time I was so excited for the trip, since I never went there before.

Our main goal was to get to Chiloé, we obviously didn’t make it the first night, so we slept in a gas station in Los Angeles, which at first was a weird thing to do, but also fun! The next morning, we continued our way to Puerto Montt, and then to Chiloé. The best part was to travel in the ferry, it was so cold outside, it even rained a little bit, but like everything we were doing, it was another new experience. And we got to see some seals in the ocean too!

It was unbelievably beautiful there. The views were amazing, it was all surrounded by just nature and it was the best thing ever. We had lunch there and continued to Dalcahue, we had trouble though finding a nice camping place, so we could sleep. February and the holidays were ending so there weren’t too many people camping or anything like that, and not all the places were trustworthy. We found one right next to the sea, and we made a barbecue in the night under the light of millions and millions of stars that you can’t see here in Santiago, and it was everything just so quiet, you could hear the sea and the wind through the trees. It was just wonderful.

I don’t exactly remember where we went next, but we did go to Frutillar when we were returning from Chiloé, and we saw the Lago Llanquihue, which was yet another beautiful thing of the trip. We met there and English man, Hans, who had a plot there and a motorhome as well. And my dad, as good with words as he is, we got along pretty fast with him, so we spent the night there.

So, summing up, we ate, slept, rested and enjoyed a lot. But the best part for me, was to spent a whole week with my family, since we don’t get these opportunities to be together that long, due to the fact that my parents work all day all days, especially my dad that works every single day and we didn’t have a holiday like this before.


I hope we can have a holiday like this again, but maybe this time for a little bit longer or even in another country, that would be amazing.

Infinite 160116

The second concert I’ve ever assisted to, has to be the best one among the two, and it was Infinite’s concert in January 16th, 2016. Infinite is a korean pop group originaly composed by 7 members (but now there's only 6 of them since one left) and is one of these boybands that can dance (specially Infinite, is known for being one of the best groups at dancing and synchronization)  and sing and basically do everything lol (you might have heard of kpop, recently it has become very popular). They are basically one of the first kpop groups I liked since 2013, so, when I knew they were coming here I was freaking out. Given the fact that kpop wasn’t that popular back then, it was almost impossible to think some korean people would even think on coming here to Chile. But it did happen, and I couldn’t be any more happier. The tickets were pretty much cheap compared to another concerts I’ve wanted to go, but couldn’t ‘cause they were to pricey for my poor soul. So my mom bought the tic

IT

Last weekend I went to see ‘’It’’ to the cinema in Costanera Center with some friends. To start, it was a chaos to be able to meet up all the six of us. We set an hour to gather in the subway, we said ‘’Let’s meet up there at 11:00-11:30’’, and so we did. Some arrived there at 11:00 and others nearly 12:00, so some of us had to wait almost an hour there! And the movie was at 12:00!! And obviously, there was still one of us who hadn’t got there yet, and worst, he didn’t have a chip on his phone, so he couldn’t receive or make calls and we weren’t able to contact him. By the time it was already 12:00, but luckily there was another cinema show at 12:40, but we still had to hurry, because we needed to buy the tickets and some food. So we were there, at 12:25 with no tickets and no food and only 5 of us. We finally decided to just go to the cinema, we thought that maybe the one who hadn’t arrived yet was in his way, or worse, in his home peacefully sleeping. We got there, and sudde

A family photo

In this photo I was probably only like a few months old, so it was taken in about 1999 or 2000 in our home, in which today is the living and used to be the dining room. And there’s my dad hugging us all and being happy for a photo that he couldn’t guess was going to be an old memory of easier times. My brother Carlos in his back laughing at his own joke (like usually) and what it seems like half of a tooth less. In the left side is my sister Jessica with blonde, long hair now gone ‘cause she likes to have it really short and to dye it. And then there’s me, with barely one year old, or less, not knowing what’s going on or what I’m doing there, like every baby who’s just discovering life. I can only guess my mom was taking the photo, so that explains why she’s not there. But even though she’s not (which could of have made this photo even better), I still love this picture. Me and brothers take pics of the three of us all the time, but we don’t have that many with our parents, so ev
