Burger Nation

Imagen
My favorite food is the hamburger, I love the variety of flavors that you can generate by combining different ingredients, integrating as basic very good meat and fresh bread. I tried different types of hamburgers, however, I don´t like american cheese so I try to change it. Recently I tried Carl's Jr. hamburgers, and I loved them, good taste, fresh ingredients and good price, they combine a bit of fast food with gourmet style. I think the type of hamburger that I like the most should have juicy meat, soft and fluffy bread and mozzarella cheese but those of pork are winning  a place in my heart. In the University I usually bring homemade food, but this semester I have been very lazy so I ask for deliverys or as somewhere near the university, I prefer sushi, burritos, or microcafé lunches. I do not like cooking very much, but because it involves time and I want to optimize it to the maximum, although that later considerably affects my pocket when I cook I try to make everything ...

Developments in Social Psychology

Imagen
My favorite subject of this semester is Developments in Social Psychology. I enrolled in this course at the "Universidad Católica" and it has been a great experience. We always have to prepare two papers by means of commentary, and during the class, we discuss the documents. The interesting thing is that the studies we read in the articles are recent or in fact very complex and novel, so you can learn about the advances in applied social psychology. The discussions with the mates and professors are very powerful, I always leave very excitedly and happy about this class. The professors are well known in the area of Social Psychology and in the topic of social movements, but my favorite teacher is Gloria Jimenez, she is a great teacher, very proactive and young. I would like to be like her, always attentive to listening, with much knowledge and experience and a great vibe. We have seen issues such as the emergence of social psychology, social cognition and moral...

The music of life

Imagen
In the photographs and stories that my parents tell about me, dance and music are present. They tell me that I won all the dance contests of the parties I went to, they enrolled me in many dance workshops and always turned on the sound equipment in my house to dance. So, I must say that I like all the music genres associated with the rhythm and dance of the hips such as salsa, merengue, reggaetón, pop, cumbia, vallenato, etc.  I think the music that best represents me is the vallenato, a folkloric rhythm typical of the region where I am from and is home for the "Festival de la Leyenda Vallenata", I always grew up listening to that music. Vallenato it´s the interpretation of the experiences of my land, where the background of the countryside, love and daily life are related. Always makes me happy to hear vallenato when I am away from my house.  They are cordially invited to meet and listen to this musical genre, which has well-known exponents that integrate more conte...

CALM

Imagen
Take this picture last friday, when i went to see the Pacific Ocean. Just one year after living in Santiago, i could go visit Valparaiso and Viña del Mar, it was very nice to be there, mainly because i could see the deep blue Pacific. Valparaiso has many colors, murals, as if the city will have a history through paintings, has life and personality. Viña del Mar has a more conservative, aesthetic and glamorous style. The food is delicious but the view is best of all. I like this photo because it captured a moment of peace, calm and immesity, the ocean represents for me all this. Whenever i'm facing the sea i'm happy, full of good vibes me, i can leave there bad thoughts and emotions, give new meaning to many things. The immensity of the ocean makes me feel i can do anything and connect with my most precious memories.

Village of colors: Guatapé - Colombia

Imagen
Guatapé is a municipality in the department of Antioquia in Colombia, and it is a beautiful place full of colors, great landscapes and a lot of tranquility. It is close to a “ Embalse - El Peñol” and “El Peñol” stone which is a 220 meter monolith (like the Pão de Açúcar in Brazil), there are many activities and water sports to do but also the possibility of knowing the gastronomy and daily life of an antioqueño town. Every time i can i go to visit him, i walk through all its stone streets admiring the colorful houses, eat arepa with chorizo ​​and agua panela, and i sit in the square to talk. The weather is perfect, very spring (all year) so you will not feel cold or hot, people are the most special thing about this place, they are very kind and will be happy to visit you.

Apple lover´s

Imagen
I admit that i am a lover of all the technology and products of Apple, some it seems absurd or silly but the truth is that i really enjoy the Apple devices, i would like to have them all updated and in their most recent versions. The most important at this time for all that implies is my computer (MacBook Air), two years ago i have it and has been exceptional in its performance, operation and is very light to transport. I use it all the time to work, to communicate, to study and to have fun. I really like the operating system of the MacBook, which is called MacOS, it is very intuitive and it facilitates many options when it comes to working. Probably, without this device, i would use another type of tools according to the context but now technology and many other devices are part of our life.
