Welcome 2014! a year of changes!

The 2013 has been, in spite of the “bad” things, a good year .When the summer (that was a very good one) was over, I finally began to take classes from the career I wanted: Anthropology. I was at the bachelor program from the University during the 2012, so even  when I didn’t have such a bad time there (as so many think), I wanted really badly to star with anthropology!... now I just have to wait till the degree begins to really have cools courses.

This year also had a few highlight, as the day I went with a friend to do paragliding. It was really awesome!! I was just flying! If you ever have the opportunity to do it, just do it! I also went to pretty cools concerts this year; Regina Spektor, Buena Vista Social Club and The Bets (a Beatles’ tribute)

Other highlight was that I went with my family to Argentina. We started in Copiapó and we crossed trough the San Francisco’s crossing to La Rioja. There we stayed a day and we went south, to Mendoza. There were a lot hours lock up inside the car. From Mendoza the idea was go to Los Andes, but we got stuck in Uspallata, the last Argentinean city before the crossing, because it was close. We stayed there four days, waiting and, for me, was the best part, because we weren’t lock up in the car and we could know more of the place (even we visited a an archeology site).

I finally handed my monograph over! That is like a ghost that follows you all bachillerato. And the last highlight, I would say that was the 50^th anniversary of Doctor Who! It was such a big event! I mean, it was worldwide! They even got a Guinness record, the largest broadcasting of a TV show or something like that.

Now as the end of this year is coming, a new beginning it’s not far away

Cheers

[Comida] [Food] [Essen]

If you know me, you will be aware of how much I like to eat, especially sweet things, like kuchen, apfelstrudel, chocolate, etc. I mean, my actually need to eat something sweet every day.  It became a habit, because, before I came to Santiago, I used to drink coffee after lunch with my dad. We drank black coffee, with no sugar, so we needed something sweet to balance the after lunch coffee.

I don’t only like to eat sweet things, I would say that I like most of the food, with the exception of seafood, that actually I have never like it and I think that makes me sick. In the other hand, I have been a vegetarian for two years now. I must add, that I’m not a strict one, I mean, I eat fish, so I normally call it being a “bad vegetarian”. Anyway, I was never a big meat fan, so I never ate so much of it and always preferred food with a lot of vegetables.

I’m also very daring when we talk about food; I like very much to taste new and exotic food. I have had mostly good experiences trying new stuff, except maybe once in Germany. I was in a restaurant with my host family in Bavaria and I ordered something very traditional, some kind of “wurst”. When it came, it was awful! It was like a piece of gelatin (just fat) with pieces of meat and other things in it. I couldn’t eat it. I gave it to my host dad.

To finish, I would just add that life is too short to be worrying about diet and deprive yourself of so many things, among them, eat good stuff.

Cheers!
