Changes to my study program

 Hi everyone! Today I will talk about some changes that could be made in anthropology study program in the University of Chile. Currently, I am in my second year studying anthropology in the University of Chile. Well, honesty, I really like my career, but I would like to change some things. Generally, the professors are good, but some are terrible teacher, principally the archaeologist. When I go to university, I go to learn, and are really sad when a professor is disagreeable with students or when it is obvious he doesn´t teach. This is frustrating! I have some friends disillusioned of archaeologist for this. I think is most important a good teacher than a good researcher. This is very essential because learn the subjects of the curriculum relies on the professors, my favorites courses are those with the best teachers, That are the courses when I more learned. I am satisfied with the curriculum. The problem with workload is that weeks are horrible another are relaxed, I would chan...

Time travel to the past or the future

Imagen
 Hii everyone!! Today, I am going to talk about a time travel I would like to make. I would travel to Ancient Mesopotamia, in 2300 b.C, where now is modern Iraq, in  the Middle East.  I would visit Babylon because this city was the capital of Mesopotamia. This city is currently famous because there is a debate. Some people said "This place was wonderful", and other people, specifically in the Bible, talked badly of Babylon. This was a city with a lot of history. It was an important centre of commerce, and also a political and cultural centre. In 2019, this place was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, but now is only a wreck. I would see the famous Hangings Gardens of Babylon because I believe it was really beautiful. Currently, the Hangings Gardens of Babylon is one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. This city and its gardens appear represented in many films, but that is only the imagination of filmmakers, I would see the real Hangings Gardens of Babyl...

My dream job

Imagen
 Hi everybody, today I will talk to you about my dream job Before I start, I must admit that this is not an easy topic for me since I am not clear about the way I would like to work, and I really have a hard time imagining myself working in the future :D. Anyway, it's not something I spend a lot of time thinking about. I am currently studying anthropology, this is a profession that has a lot of field work and I chose it precisely because of that, as I would not like to have a job that is too routine. I am currently interested in linking anthropology with international relations and with the social and environmental issues generated by globalization. So I would like to have a job in an international organization to be able to help people at the local level. As for the salary, I would like it to be good and allow me to live comfortably without worrying about making ends meet. I would like to work in person, I think it is the best way to conduct research, plus it is much better to...

The best concert ever

Imagen
My best concert was November 29th last year, in Movistar Arena, in O'Higgins park. I saw C. Tangana, he is a Spanish artist, he is a rapper, singer and composer. He mixes rap, pop and flamenco in his songs. He was on a Tour called "Sin cantar ni afinar Tour", he named this Tour this way to make fun of the journalists. I went with my best friend, we bought tickets on the field, and we arrived 3 hours before to be close to the stage. Before starting the concert, we were tired, but when the concert started, we forgot it. The atmosphere during the even was euphoric, but the atmosphere was sad when he sang a sad song called "Nunca estoy".  This was my first concert and I enjoyed so much this concert. Before the concert I said "I won't film during the concert" but I did it, I filmed low quality videos, but you can feel the euphoric atmosphere.  My friend and I were very happy, we jumped, danced and sang. When the concert finished we were excited and very...

A country i would like to go to

Imagen
 Hi everyone. I would like to go to Spain, because in this country people speak Spanish and i like Spanish music and medieval architecture from Spain. I know a little of history of Spain, i know about the Muslim occupation in the Middle Ages and their result in the contemporary culture from Spain and Latin America, for example, the influence of Arabic in the Spanish language, the influence in the architecture and the influence in the Spanish gastronomy. Also i know about the history of the Spanish conquest in America and i know a little about the Spanish Civil War.  I would like to travel around Spain and visit medieval castles, mosques, churches and cities like Barcelona, Granada, Cordoba, Sevilla, Bilbao, etc. Especially, I would like to visit the Alhambra in Granada, because its architecture is very beautiful and is very ancient, also it has much history. I would like to study in Spain, only for one year beacuse i think the Spanish people are not friendly with foreigners.
