A special meal

It’s hard for me to think of one very special meal, mainly because there hasn’t been a huge celebration, or any that’s more important than the rest.

The one I’m thinking of, it definitely wasn’t a big celebration, any birthday or special occasion, it was one meal of when my family and I made the trip to the south of Chile.

We were traveling on a motor home, so most of our meals were inside the motor home, but the very first one, was the most special one. The night before, we parked in a gas station and slept there, and so the next morning we had to take breakfast. I remember it was the most complicated thing at first, since it was our first time doing that, not like it’s something completely out of the world, but we were six and there wasn’t too much space to move around. My dad went out to buy some food, something like cakes I think since we were already prepared and had bread and everything to put in it, and my mom went to get water so we could boil it and drink tea.


I remember I was so excited that morning, not just because I was hungry, but because it was something fun to do. We were on a table meant for 4, but somehow we all fitted in there. It was early in the morning, it was freezing cold outside, but we were all together and really cozy. I know it may seem like the simplest breakfast ever, but it was amazing for me and it was only the first one of the trip.

DOGS

Dogs have always been called the men best friend, and it couldn't be more right, but for me, they are so much more than that. And as a dog owner (and lover) myself, I have experienced my whole life what is like to have a dog by your side and to love them deeply. So in this post, I'll write about dogs that I've owned. My very first dog was ''Tunga'', he was a crossbreed (of breeds I don't know) and he was quite small, but man, he was a fighter. He used to live more in the streets than in our home, but he always returned at night. I was too little when he passed away, but I know my family suffered a lot with his death, because he was just a great dog. There were another dogs in between, I believe so, (not sure if before or after the one I'm about to tell you), but they, for reasons I'm unaware of, they didn't live too long in our home.  Then came ''Tomy'', which we loved, but caused a lot of problems. He wa...

PARIS

Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to go out of the country how I would like to, I’ve only been out once and I went to Argentina, which is not far from here and not that different to Chile. Given this, there are many countries I would absolutely love to go to, but when it comes to cities, it’s not something I have think of. I usually just like a country in general for what I can see on the internet, in pictures or what people says of these places. But Paris is the one city that I’ve always heard of on television or seen on movies (like Midnight in Paris!! I love that movie), and it’s just wonderful. Everyone knows it’s a beautiful city, and you would be lying if you say that you’re not interested on going there. If I go there, I would like to go around and maybe walk next to the Seine River and just admire everything this city has to give. For what I’ve seen, every place it’s just as amazing as the one that’s next to it. Obviously though, if I ever go there, I HAVE to visit The Lo...

Chiloé Churches

The island of Chiloé is very well known for its colorful historical churches. They were named World Heritage Site in 2000 by the UNESCO. Most of them were built around 18 th and 19 th century, when Chiloé Archipelago was still under the  Spanish Crown possesion, so they came out as a result of a mix of cultures. And they were mainly made out of native timber and wood shingles. Sixteen of them are the most representative and they all have some details in common: they are located near the shore, they are surrounded by mountains on the north and the porticos are facing the south. As for the shape, they are all similar in size and decorations, they are all very simetrical and, what I like most about them, they are so colorful, which I think makes them look cheerful and full of life, even though they are more than 100 years old. Nowadays, they are very known around the world, and they are a popular tourist destination which makes Chile to have another beautiful landmark. I...
