A song that I love

Hello everyone!

This is a musical moment, today I´d like to talk about a song that is always the first I play in the guitar, every time I take the guitar. The song is called "Por la Ciudad" and it´s wirted by an uruguayan grupo named "La Vela Puerca". I play it first because it´s very easy, just the note G, but with a rythm a little bit particular. The song belongs to the disc "De bichos y flores".
The first time I heard this song was six years ago, when I was in Primero medio (2010). I heard it because when I went for the first time to Argentina, my friends were listening and playing songs in the guitar of this band. In that moment I get in love of that band, I like too much the songs. Specially this, because was the first one I heard, and also because at the final of the song, it takes a rhythm of ska style, with drums, trumpets, electric guitar and a bass. I like too much this combination of instruments. Also, the songs talk about things of the life of a person who wants not to be sad, loves to his friends and to have good times with them. I would like some day to a concert of La Vela Puerca, if they come to Chile.

A photograph

Hi bloggers!

Today I would like to talk about a photograph that I took almost two years ago. I took this photo when I was living in Argentina, close to Buenos Aires, in a little lake that is at the exit of the place where I lived for the year. 




This photo shows an event that happens every day there, in that place, the sunset. That event cannot be more part of a routine, but of course and as you can see, a very beautiful routine (In the thinking of they who take a sunset as something wonderful).
It was very weird for me to see sunsets out of Santiago and his mountains. Here, the sunset is in a lake, there is no mountains, hills or mountain ranges.
I like this photo because I think it´s a very nice sunset, but there is a reason that make me love her: the best year of my life I lived there, I lived with a lot of such a good persons that they are now part of my life. This photo brings to me such a good memories... We tried with my friends to visit this place after work every time, just to be there and share some moments, drink a "mate", take photos, talk and talk of the life... 
I would like to revive this moment, when I took this photo... I wont talk more because I´ll cry... jaja

bye!

San Cristóbal Hill

Hi Bloggers!

Today I will talk about a place I like to visit a lot, I go every time I can.
the San Cristóbal Hill. This Hill is in the center of Santiago. I visit this every time I can, but I try to visit always the next day of rains in Santiago, I like this because I can see all the city in my feets and also the sky is clean, so I can see the mountains, the buildings and the mountain range with the snow in their tallest parts. But other important view, is the city in the night... lot´s of lights!!


I always try to go with someone, Usually friends. When I was a kid, I visited a lot of times this with my parents and family, but now I´m bigger, so I have to go alone :( that´s why I try to go with my friends, the last time my girlfriend came to Chile and, obviously, we went to the Hill :D
Also of the view, to climb the mountains (and descend) means a lot of exercise for my legs, thing that I like too much, I like to do physical exercises.
Another important part of Santiago, in relation with this, I think is the Santa Lucía Hill. yes, it´s too small, but I think it´s important to considerate because of the tourism that it has.

The Failure of San Ramón

Hi Bloggers! I hope you are well. Today, I would like to speak something about my career, Geography. But not anything about Geography, I would like to talk about the problem that the city of Santiago is having in this moments. What´s happening? the big failure of San Ramón. What is this? basically, this failure it´s a reverse failure (the movements are vertical) that is in the east of Santiago, in the beggining of the "Cordillera de Los Andes". It is a problem because researchers say that the failure can make a big earthquake in this zone. In ohters words, the failure is active. Maybe the eartquakes of this zone will not be great like the others that we know of the past (27F, 16S), but the people think that this won´t be a problem to keep building here, in the east of Santiago. That´s the real problem. Researchers say that the magnitude of the earthquakes of this zone are in the 7 and 8 grades Richter. Not so differents like the others of the coast (27F, 16S). Also, the researchers say that the buildings of Santiago are prepared to support the coasts eartcuakes, but not those who are in they feets. This brings serious problems. The force of destruction of the earthquakes is liberated under our city, causing lots of damages on the population´s buildings of this zone. With this, Geographers say that keep building on ths zone, is an irresponsability of the urbanization plan´s of the city. It´s important to have concscience about this problem, becuase the builder´s companys are still working and building on this zone.
