Blog 8; A subject you enjoyed studying this semester

 Hi!

This semester I only take five subject, and I thing that my favorite was a transversal; Interventions in public space. I really enjoyed the course; analyzing aspects of the city, both Santiago and some others that the professors or other students showed, and starting to notice things that I didn't pay attention to or understand before, such as the importance of a balance between risk and comfort to improve the quality of life in a city. I really enjoyed reading about different topics related to public space and learning about some interesting concepts such as the "Terrain Vague" the "non-place" or the importance of "active observation". I appreciated reading about some aspects of history, such as the canalization of the Mapocho river, or artists like Alfredo Jaar and his controversial intervention in New York. I think above all, I enjoyed understanding more deeply how the physical environment can influence so profoundly the lives of those who inhabit a place, whether for better or worse.

An autobiography

     This is my autobiography. I was born in Santiago, Chile, in 2002. My mom is from Buenos aires and my father is from Antofagasta.

 Hi everyone!  Today I suposed to talk about posible jobs for my future. If I'm honest, I'm more focus on studying and end my career before think on a job. Its just my second year, so, maybe its okay. Hopefully, I will have a work relative with the design, I thing that is the idea of studing an university career jaja. Im not sure If I could be happy working outside of the creative area, but the posibilitie is there.  I don't expect to won a lot of money, enough to live without financial problems or debts its fine for me.  It would be very cool if I could travel in my job, and have anothers perspectives about the same things, maybe know new people and places.

Currently, I enjoy more assignments and tasks relative with that area, so Im very c...

Post one; A country would you like to visit

Imagen
  Hi everione! Today I wanted to talk about a country I would like to visit someday. I would really only go for one specific place, although I know I would find many interesting things once there. I would like to visit the palace of Versailles, in France; for its beauty, for all the history it has behind it, or maybe just for the simple fact of leaving the continent for the first time and getting to know new places.  However, for other things like studying, working or living, I'm not sure if it would be for me. Firstly, because I don't speak the language, and secondly, because I know very little about the culture and lifestyle there, plus the requirements to obtain residency. So, as a tourist, that's all.
