Calendulas

I from a very young I like it flowers, in the garden of my granma we cultivated a lot of species. My favorite always were the calendulas, its color I remember to the sun. With pass of the time I learned about to the magic of the calendulas. Its benefits are infinite, help the soil, repel pests, and aid healing.



My granma teached me the calendula has powerful anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, and anti-bacterial properties.
When I were girl, she used calendula flower petals to make a healing calendula oil and a soothing salve. To cure cuts, scrapes, bruises, bee stings, insect bites, etc,That’s why I plant calendula in my garden, to remember my granma.

Family Meal

Hello! Today I will tell you about a family meal that I remember very fondly. This meal was two years ago in Chillan at the home of a family friend, we were a great group. We met my family and another great family of friends, they all lived in exile in Hungary, it was a way to rediscover and remember those times. We celebrated that after several years without seeing each other, we were the grandmothers, the parents, the children and grandchildren. There was an enormous amount of food. They cooked an exquisite Goulash, a typical Hungarian food that has many hours of cooking in a garn olla, is a stew of meat, potato, carrot, onion ... and of course, paprika! (pimenton).

Andes

When talking about walks, it's really hard to choose just one place. However, I think one of my favorite walks in life is taking the road to the Andes, from San Fabián de Alico. Every summer and winters, when I travel to my family in San Carlos, I have the opportunity to take a bus in front of my house to San Fabian de Alico, and from there walk its hills, visit the river for the day or even camping for a few days at the campsites. Last time at the end of February, I traveled with my family, and a friend from Santiago with her baby Luna and her boyfriend, we visited the Ñuble river and we promised to return to enjoy the river with the little Luna when she learned to walk . I really enjoy taking the road to the mountain range, it is a beautiful tour, full of hills and lots of nature. Unfortunately, a few years ago began the construction of a damming, the Punilla damming, and the place changed to a lot, the water of the river is darker, ist have less nature and there are more tour
