 4                          -Post 4- Time travel to the past On this occasion I will talk about my childhood vacations. I would like to travel to my past when I lived in Mejillones. This place is important for me because I remember the summer on the beach, long hours of sunshine and sea. The Mejillones beach had a special energy for me, I could spend hours swimming in the sea watching the sky and under the sea. I loved rowing and diving with my father. I saw starfishes, a lot of fish of all colors, octopuses, sea lions and sometimes sharks.I remember being inside a small boat and I saw a black shadow on the sea swimming under the boat, this was a very big fish!! My grandfather called him “emperador”. It was the first time that I felt fear and fascination at the same time. I will never forget an exciting experience. Another nice memory was that I really enjoyed walking in the night because there was not any noise and I could hear the waves of the sea from miles away. My evenings were lo

I imagine a job where I can be myself and be able to play the music that I like the most. Being able to travel to different countries and share with other artists. For this I need to be very versatile musically and master my instrument as an extension of my body. I think speaking other languages is very important for this purpose. I do not have a sum of money planned, but if it is enough for me to live on, it's enough. I have been in jobs where the pay is not much but the environment is very good and on the other side I have been in very well paid jobs but I've had bad times.  So, it's relative, I think that money does not reflect anything to the experience.  At this moment I am trying to finish my degree so I can travel outside my country and see what the world has to offer. I think that working for a

4 - post 2 - The best holidays ever My best holiday was last summer with my friends in an unforgettable adventure in the south of Chile.  It all started when three friends and I, in our happiness for the last day of class, planned our fantastic trip in the national park “Hornopiren”, located in the commune of Cochamo, Región de Los Lagos, south of Chile. This trip was amazing!! The first adventure began when we walked within ten hours, and many things happened along the way.  We walked in the mud for a long time and I remember on occasion the road was endless but in every step I took I observed the imposing beautiful landscape in my path.  When we reached the top my eyes appreciated an unforgettable landscape, the Yates volcano and a beautiful but cold lake. It were beautiful days and my first time in a place so far away from my home in the north of Chile. I saved beautiful moments on this trip and I would love to repeat this adventure ever again.

English 4 - Post 1 - A country I would like to visit There are many countries that I want to visit, but one that undoubtedly comes to mind is Japan  A country that I have always wanted to visit,  Japan, I have always been intrigued by this culture. from childhood I have enjoyed japanese animation and jpop (japanese pop music).  I liked the idea of being a samurai or a ninja. I would like to know its landscapes and traditional buildings.  I am also interested in doing jazz concert in a bar or some theater. I have heard that the japanese really enjoy jazz. one of the reasons why I became interested in music was thanks to Japanese music. I love its harmonies and musical breaks, they are a mix between western tradition music and jazz harmony. I think I would not like to live in Japan for a long time but a six month concert season would not be bad. What I like least is gastronomy, it is a country that consumes a lot of meat. :(

 Person that I admire in my field It is really hard to talk about someone that I admire, the closed I feel to admiration would be a musician named Wynton Marsalis. I think he is a great reference for me of what I would like for my career. He is a really good classical musician but also a jazz musician . he mixes the best of both worlds. Wynton Marsalis is a renowned trumpeter, composer and music instructor, is the director of Jazz at Lincoln Center. He has been active in the promoting of classical and jazz music to young audience. Wynton has Won nine Grammy Awards and is the only musician to have won a Grammy in both areas, jazz and classical categories in the same year. Personally , beyond his awards, what I admire is he way of playing. It is hard to find musicians with their great technique, sound and ideas when improvising.

 A Picture I like This image represents a lot to me. It is a photo that i took on the Chinchorro beach in the city of Arica. It means so much, is the place where every time I have the oportunity I travel to recharge my energies. This beach is located a few steps from my parents' house and it was taken at my favorite time, I have always liked those colors, it give me a lot of peace of mind. Whenever in this moment I see this photo and bring me very good memories but above all calm. I would like to go more often to be with my family and enjoy the sea.
