Estrella Distante

Hello everyone! Today I will tell you about one of my favorite books: "Estrella distante", the fourth literary creation of the author Roberto Bolaño, one of my favorite writers because his narrative is intelligent, detailed and historical. The story develops with a group of young people who participate in a literary workshop, where one of its members Carlos Wieder infiltrates and finds out who belongs to some group of left-wing political tendency or who militates directly in the PC. It is because of it that he carries out the plan to know each one of the characters that compose this literary workshop, then he tries to gain the confidence of each one and finally he begins to assassinate them. I like it because the central theme of the work is composed of aspects such as: exile lived in periods of dictatorship and the violation of a basic right within a society, such as freedom of expression. I read it for the first time at the age of 15 and took it up a couple of months ago, along with other books by Bolaño such as "Los detectives Salvajes" (The Wild Detectives) and "Entre Paréntesis" (Between Parentheses). I recommend reading his books.

With my friends!

This beautiful photograph was taken in February 2016 in La Paz, Bolivia. With my best friends, all geography students, we decided to travel on our summer vacations, we traveled through Peru and Bolivia, and our last destination before returning to Chile to La Paz. In this picture we are Valentina, me, Mariana and Isidora (from left to right), on one of the most effective public transport in La Paz: the cable cars. I like this photo because it conveys joy and love, we really enjoyed and we were very happy on this trip, it was an experience where we grew up in many ways. Besides, the cable cars trip is one of the most important memories of Bolivia, we loved it because it is a clean transport and the fastest that can be taken to travel in a city like La Paz. It has a very interesting route that is possible to see in all detail from the highest urban transport in the world !! It is really exciting to know this chaotic city from above! When I see this picture, I feel I would like to trave...

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). We also drank Pálinka, the hot water typical of Hungary, very strong and with a cherry flavour. Everything was very delicious and transported them to their past!  It was really fun and emotional, in the afternoon we had fun playing in the pool and in the  night , after lunch, we got together to talk about our li...
