The wander of a wanderer

For long years, my holidays were go to my beach house in Los Quinquelles and stay there for 2 or 3 weeks. but last holiday (2017 summer) I worked, so I didn't have holidays and I think that this year it will be the same.

How I said in a previous post, my best holidays were when I went to Huasco, to visit my cousins and I really hope to go there again on a next summer holiday. Huasco is the most perfect beach town that I've ever seen, just because it has everything that a town in the beach must have; good gastronomy, beautiful landscapes, being the capital of something, its own culture, etc, etc. 
I think, if I go again to Huasco to visit my cousins, I really want to do the same things that we did when I went. You know, vandalism, go to beach everyday and break the hearth of every single lady ;).

In my life, I've never gone to the south of Chile, (Instead when was the studying trip [But it doesn't count]), so I my dream is travel along the end of the world, you know; See the millennial Araucarias, see the broke of the Andes range, know the south and indigenous culture, and, if the government allows me, travel to the eternal glacials of Antarctic.
Talking about gastronomy, since I was child I would like to taste "Cordero al Palo" o "Cordero Magallánico", in a addition of the endemic "Curanto".

Inside the mind of the Virtuoso

Music, is the most beautiful expression of humanity, while other animals dance, fight or build to charm a couple, humans have music, music and what it gives off, like dancing and singing, but all of those are parts of the essence of music. Music, along with writing, are what makes us humans 
(in my opinion).

I'm not displeased with any kind of music, I listen to a lot of different styles and types of music, but the ones that I listen to the most are Trap, Classical, Reggaeton and French House.  
Currently I’m listening more Classical music than everything else, and there are a lots of songs that please me, like Rach III, Hungarian Dance N°5, and Spring, but the one that really really inspires me and makes me feel as the protagonist of the scene is a compilation of Ola Gjeilo, a composer that makes classics songs that sound as dreams.


For other side, French House and Trap really motivate me, when I’m sad or when I need to wake up, especially French House. I use to listen Trap to make me feel as the king of the road, and also to move my head to the rhythm of those horrible songs.        
  

Reggaeton is for parties, but I must know the songs, so I listen to it usually in free time or when I take a shower (and obviously, sing).

But, along all the differents types of music and songs that I use to listen, there is a song that highlights of the rest, being crowned my favorite song of all; that is Instant Crush of Daft Punk ft. Julian Casablanca. This song has a special meaning to me and someone, the lyrics, the melody, the video, everything of the song is just perfect.

Crossing the end, beyond void

I think that studying something after ending your career is totally necessary today in some areas, for example where the demand is low and the offer much. I don't think that Pharmacy is the case, but studying some sort of postgraduate is not a bad idea if you want to be successful.

Talking about me, I really want to study medicine after this career or lacking that, studying a postgraduate in infectology. I really love medicine and everything that interacts with the body, that's why I'm studying Pharmacy and then medicine [Free pass for graduate students ;)]. Also, the curriculum of a Pharmacist and Physician is very very striking everywhere you go.
I would like to study here, in Universidad de Chile, mostly because I have the "free pass" to study here, being a graduate student of the university. But, if I don't get it, I would like to do the infectology course in Universidad de Concepción or here in Universidad de Chile.
I would like to study part-time, you know, some days study and others work, but if the program doesn't provide me that option, I think that I would like to study in the traditional way, being in classes and interacting with people );.

Also, I think that studying something different to what you graduate is a good idea because you expand your knowledge to other areas, and you can get new abilities and complementation.

Art must exist beyond reason 🌹

Before start talking about Arts, I think that is prudent to say what I understand about what exactly arts is. To me, art is everything made by the human provided it expresses something. It can be the most insignificant thing or the most unintelligible piece of art, but if those things have a meaning, and the author put his blood, sweat and tears on it, it is a magnificent piece of art.

Having said that, in my opinion, the best expression of art are the renaissance paintings and architecture. Those magnificent paintings are the top of the human expression in the white. I'm not only talking about the magnifique technique with the pencil, also about the meaning of a lot of the wonderful paintings distributed along Renaissance Europe.
"The School of Athena" - Rafael Sanzio (1512)
Talking about architecture, the European landscape is full of it, and, in my opinion, without those buildings Europe would lose a lot of its charm. The German castles, the French huts, the Spanish churches, England markets, and the Dutch windmills. It's hard to imagine current European countries without its renaissance legacy.

"Castle on the lake" - Eichwalde/Germany
If you ask me, What is the most important art that exist?, I'll answer without hesitation; The Writing.
Human history starts with the writing, and in my opinion, it will end with it. Writing led humans to tell histories and transcend beyond the eras. Currently, the immortality is only achievable through writing, being known to next generations and being someone who marked their existence.
Writing let the human think, imagine and transcend...

Come in, and take a drink!

Aaaaah, videogames, what would my life be without videogames?... possibly I would be a doctor, or an explorer, but... here we are /:

Along my life I have played a lot of popular and not very popular video games, in console and PC, but I think that it's more convenient to talk about the game that I'm currently playing more; Hearthstone.
If you ask me, HearthStone and Overwatch are the games that I'm playing more than any other, but HearthStone takes the cup because I can play it on my smartphone, and I'm always with my smartphone in the pocket, so every time I have a bit of free time, I spend it playing HearthStone, that's why I think that I've played HearthStone (Since 2014) like a 950 hours. It's not so much like other games, like LoL, but in quantity of games, is more than any other, because matches in this game are really fast.

HearthStone is a electronic TCG (Trade Card Game), like Mitos y Leyendas but online, developed by Blizzard, same company who developed WoW and Overwatch.
This game is such dependent of RNG (Random Number Generation), or in other words "luck", that's why many of professional players and caster doesn't believe that HearthStone is a truly E-Sport, because depends a lot on how lucky a player can be and not pure dextress and ability like other games like LoL, Star Craft II and Counter Strike.
But I don't really care, you know why?, because the game is fun, and that's how a TCG must be, a fun game that depends 80% of your dextress and 20% of luck.

HearthStone is currently a rising E-Sport in Chile, so I'm really hopeful that one day I could become a professional player of this game, because I really enjoy it a lot and I recommend it 95% to any gamer who wants a good phone game (because you don't need brain to play Clash Royale).

The future is now, oldman

I'm currently studying Pharmaceutical Chemistry, so I hope to work as a chemist in the future, being in a laboratory doing some stuff to earn good money. I imagine myself in a laboratory, wearing the white coat, supervising a group of employees, doing some kind of calculations for a machine or mixing some mixes, things that only a pharmaceutical chemists could do, you know, science stuff.

A chemist working in a laboratory
I would be so pleased if the work would allow me to travel to other countries, in some kind of conferenses or bussines. But also I would like to work abroad, doing the same things that I wrote before, but in other country, like Netherlands o Italy.

Well, now talking about my old friend, Johnny Cash $$$$, Im not a man of luxury, I only need enough money to buy food for the month, pay the rent, buy gas and some pennies to get clothes.
I think that with a salary of 2.500 USD I can survive easily.

I would like to work in a hospital too, being part of a medical team and help to find the right diagnosis of a pacient, working hand by hand with physicians.

Here!, wanderer

My holidays are always the same since I was 8, I go to Los Quinquelles where we have a beach house. The problem with that is that every year is the same panorama, go to the beach, go to explore the forest or meet a new neighbor, that's why I always remember my travel to the north of Chile as the best F#%$#NG  holiday that I've ever  had.

Desierto Florido, Atacama



The travel was in january of 2010 and we went to the house of my uncle Emilio, in Huasco. My whole family went, including my grandparents and a cousin. We were there for 3 weeks, 3 weeks where I got to see Desierto Florido, Coquimbo and La Serena, Playa la Virgen and Valle de la Luna.
Also I learned that Huasco is the capital of the olive in Chile, there are hectares and hectares of olives of differents types.




 But what I enjoyed the most was to go to Playa Grande every day with my brother and my cousins, we were the most iconic group of all Huasco during our stay there, we did vandalism, we fished, we went to parties and we charm every single girl in the town, we were the Dones Tapias.
By far, those were the best holidays because I enjoyed a lot with my cousins  and it's something that I never did again ):, and also I met new wonderful places like Desierto Florido.
Playa Chica, Huasco
