BLOG 1: A PLACE I WOULD LIKE VISITING 

The truth is, I think tourism is quite complex because there are 2 cities, the one that is shown to us and the real one, in other words the tourist cities play to show only what they want to show.
Thinking about which place I would like to visit, there is a case that catches my attention, which is New York.
Despite having a fairly rigid urban model and that as it grows it generates a very high level of segregation, it has perhaps the highest level of cultural friction in the World. 

 
It is undeniable that New York is the epicenter of music, every musician, aspires to be in this city, this is what captivates me to know this city, as despite the evident social segregation reflected in the city (some theorists call it the urban jungle) there is such a dynamic arts movement
If I could live in this place for a while, obviously I would visit the most iconic places where my favourite musicians have played, such as the blue note, village vanguard or birdland, but I think that in any club, especially in the sessions or jams, I will find good music.


 If I am honest, beyond the fact that I am interested in visiting this city for an urban interest  , I would like to go to listen to music from perhaps the best musicians in the world, in fact one of my favorite Chilean drummers is right now living and playing in this place, the great Rodrigo Recabarren.

 Music Since the pandemic I started the habit of listening to at least 1 album a day, it is something that totally takes me out of my routine, it is my ritual. The album I listened yesterday was philos by Park Jiha, an interesting work that mixes the fleeting nature of ambient with samples of different artists. Movies The other day I went to the Normandie cinema to see the movie that I think brings in tears  even to the harshest fascist. La memoria infinita, another masterpiece by maite alberdi that left me amazed. Blog I plan to travel to Germany in the summer and I started to learn German very very very very slowly. The two pages that I have occupied this time have been nicos Weg, which is a very interactive website to practice and the Easy German YouTube channel where I can familiarize myself with the language in a more fluid way. Without a doubt these two spaces have helped many people who have decided to migrate or learn the language. Museum Unfortunately I couldn't be in Sant

BLOG 4 - My dream job

Imagen
 Sometimes we spend so much time thinking about what our ideal job would be, what topics we would like to investigate in the future, which I don't think is bad, in this way we are exploring our tastes and interests. But the reality is that you never know what you will find on the way, and I am not talking about destination, I mean that interests and tastes are constantly changing and it is something natural and I think that being closed to an idea does not allows exploration. In my case, studying architecture I have found many topics that I would like to investigate or work on in the future, and more and more topics are appearing, and I suppose that in the 4 years that I have left in my career, more and more will appear. So thinking about an ideal job at this point I think is unnecessary, even so I would like to share certain things that I imagine for the near future. Despite not being my ideal job as an architect, I would like to work for a couple of years in an architecture offic

Language

In terms of languages, Latin America has such a poor level of English because it is not really a necessity. With the exception of Brazil we all speak the same language. In addition to this, the English classes taught at school prioritize the writing and listening part over the speaking part. In my case, I have had English classes since I was 4 years old, I can read, listen and write English and make myself understood. However, since I do not have the need to be understood by another person who speaks another language, my spoken skills are very bad. Despite this, I think I can make myself understood. The easiest thing I find about the English language is being able to be understood despite not having such an extensive vocabulary or handling so many strictly rules.  Even so, there are certain accents that are difficult for me to understand and this is precisely the part that complicates me. The movies have trained me to understand the most common and sometimes stereotyped accents, but th
