Blog 6: A place I'd like to visit

Today I want share with you many places that I think are completely fantastic.

I have on mind two options but I just can talk about one, however I am going to tell you which places are. First I have Machu Pichu, Cuzco, Perú, but I believe that everyone knows what is this, so I am going to talk about my second option: Summerland, British Columbia, Canada.

Probably you have no an idea about this town, but I can not judge you because this year I only met a little bit about Summerland, but the things that I heard got me fascinated.

Summerland is a town on the west side of Okanagan Lake, this is approximately 425km away from the east of Vancouver. In summer the temperature in this place is, commonly, 21°C and this, added to the grasslands, the situation with the lake and sandy beaches, are a reason of why the town is popular and tourism is a good industry. Also this is home to one Canada's largest wine industries.

My story with this place started in January, I returned to Santiago from my holidays in Antofagasta and when I came home, the person that was in the house told me that "a friend that she met in Budapest, was coming to Chile in the next days" and just like she said, in three days, Matt arrived at my house. I never before had been in that situation, practically living with a foreigner that almost could not speak Spanish!  So all the interactions that I had with him, were in English and, a day, I asked him "where are you from?" and  in that moment, Summerland appeared in my life. The description that he made had everything that I like, a country life, with grasslands everywhere, small town with nice people... absolutely fantastic!

 So, since this day, I have in my plans someday in the future travel to Canada and visit Summerland.

Blog 5: My favourite photography

Hi everyone, today I'm going to share with you a little bit of the things that I think about photographs.

Really, I'm not the kind of person who fall in love easy with photographs, neither I'm constantly taking selfies or pics of landcapes. But sometimes I can see some pics that let me completely surprised, an example of this pics, are all of them that are based on the universe.

In January of this year, most precisely, on the night of the 20th and early morning of the 21st, there was a lunar eclipse in Chile. This phenomenon extends for a long time, allowing to take a lot of pics of the moon.

My cousin, Nicolás, that night take a pic completely amazing, that shows a moment where the eclipse had, aproximate, a 50% covered to the moon.

When I see the pictures, I fall in love inmediatly, because everything related to the universe is, for me, completely fascinating and to be able to appreciate a phenomenon like this with my own eyes and without effort is a great experience and, by the sameway, achieve a memory like this in a photograph, is something completely incredible.

This is the reason why I consider the "lunar eclipse" pictures from my cousin, like one of my favourite photographs.

Blog 4: My favourite series

What's my favourite series?

In the past, my free time was completely dedicated to watching series, for example I have in my "watched series list"  creations like; Breaking Bad, Vikings, The Walking Dead (not complete because the last seasons are so boring), Casa de Papel, but a serie that I really love and reciently started to watching is Peaky Blinders, although I just watched a season, this is so good to the moment and the next season has high expectations.

It's a serie created by Steven Knight and produced by Caryn Mandabach, that's  basically  based in the story of the Shelby's family and how them become in one of the most important betting house in the post WWI England.  They are from Birmingham and at the start just have a small not established betting house, but the first season share to the viewers the way that the Shelby's follow to,  step by step, sometimes using the strong or just using the smart of the gang's leader Tommy Shelby, be the most important business of the area.

Even though the story is great, one of the best plots that I've watched, an important reason of why this is my favourite serie is the environment, this is because it gives us the vision of how lives in a post world war country were, with the craziest ex soldiers, the cloths, cars, houses, how to operate the gangs and a lot of little details that make each scene something wonderful.

If somebody asks me what series I recommend, without thinking about it I'll answer "Peaky Blinders"
