My favourite book and film (?)

Well, If I'm honest, I'm not a fan of reading. When I read a book is because I really liked it, and I prefer to read horror stories. For example, I enjoy reading stories by Edgar Allan Poe, like "Berenice", "Lenore", "The Black Cat", "The Oval Portrait", "Morella"... Poe has a lot of stories, So, I will talk about one: "The Oval Portrait" I read this story when I was 14. The way of telling the story is what makes it attractive.
 The story starts when a man and his servant spend the night in an abandoned castle. The place has a lot of rooms, decorations, and pictures. The man finds a book in which there are descriptions of the pictures and works of art. He looks at an oval portrait where a beautiful woman appears and proceeds to read his story. The man who painted the portrait of the woman was so obsessed with his painting, that he neglected his wife, the woman was "withering". When the man finished the painting, he went to show it to his wife, but she was dead! (The man had absorbed the life of her wife in this painting) I recommended these stories because they make you feel chills!



















I really prefer to watch movies, but there is a movie in particular that I can watch more times: "The butterfly effect", I never cry in movies, but "The butterfly effect" makes me cry...I don't know how...
I watched this movie with my mom when I was 14, and we decided to watch just for the title, it sounds interesting.
The movie is about a kid that wrote in a diary because he had lost the notion of time, he had a bad childhood, He feels responsible for ruining the lives of others and sometimes he couldn't remember some episodes of your life. When he grows up, he finds the diary and when he read it, he can come back to past. So, He decides to travel to the past and fix it. However, when he wants to fix the past, the present is ruined and has disastrous consequences. So, He has a mission: Return happiness to those around him.
it's a beautiful movie and it makes you reflect on your actions because everything you do will have consequences!

A special holidays...

If I had to talk about the best holidays of my life, it would be difficult, Each year I enjoy going to the beach with my family (Mom, Dad, Sister, uncles, cousins and grandmother) Although we always go to the same place (Horcón, Valparaíso) haha. Each summer is magic, I always save beautiful moments when I go. There are many beaches to travel around the place, I like to sit on the rocks and hear the sound of the air, waves, gulls and appreciate the places. Sometimes I like to go to the beach alone, because I can get lost in thoughts, that's something I enjoy. I like to walk too.  
Horcon<3
When we visited the place, we stayed for 3 weeks. In the morning we meet for have breakfast, we all share food (bread, cookies, eggs, tea, milk, cakes, everything you want to eat!). In the middle of the day we cook for the lunch and we listen to music, my dad likes 80's music and he listens every day. 
Later, we go to the beach and we stay for the rest of the day. 

In the beach, there is a "Bridge of wishes", you can write your wish on a ribbon and tie it to the bridge, it's a tradition that was born a short time ago, but I think it's beautiful.

Bridge of wishes 

For the night, We either make a party,dance, eat meat, talk about funny moments or we go to the games. 
Each holidays I enjoy these things, but a date that I will never forget is the summer of 2014, because it was a specials days, I had strong feelings for the summer and I had a wonderful moments. But I won't tell more about that. 
If I had to choose a place to live, I would choose these beach, it's my favorite place in the world!

A country I would like to visit

One of my dreams has always been travel around the world. I'd like to know about other cultures and discover beautiful places. I think travelling is the best experience in life. But it's better If you travel with company. I would like to visit Germany because I have never been there. (Well, I've just been in Chile and Bariloche...).
In my opinion, Germany is one of the most wonderful places in the world. The culture, food, celebrations and others things that makes me to think it's interesting.
Berlin

If I travel to Germany, I would like to visit Berlin and see some things about Second world war like Wall of Berlin and other monuments. Germany has more places to visit, of course, for example: Colony, Constance lake, Nuremberg, Potsdam and many others destinies. 
Colony

The celebrations are very important too. I would like to travel to Germany in October and November, I think these months are the funniest of the year. In October, the Germans celebrate Oktoberfest, a celebration to commemorate the wedding of the Princes of Bavaria. They eat food typical like sausage and drink beer. If I travel to Germany, I would like to celebrate Oktoberfest. 
Other of the celebrations in October is Lights Festival in Berlin, it must be easy to imagine what they do in those days...Each night Germany turn on the most important monuments of Berlin.
But the fun never stop! In November there are a Jazz Festival, Christmas markets and Chocolate Festival. It's Fantastic! 
                                                    
 

                                                     




                                                   


                                                      And How we could forget the food? 
German gastronomy is based on foods like meat, sausages, potatoes and vegetables. The desserts are delicious, cakes, strudel and friedcake. ALL YOU CAN EAT!  



If I have the opportunity to live in Germany, I would. There are many job opportunities in that country and the education in Germany is much better than Chile. However, I can't go live in other Country without my family, They have to travel with me. I love them! 

English

Well, first I have to tell I like English, the lexis, grammatical, everything, and about my experience learning English in university...it h...
