A different journey


At the end of 2019 we started this trip, in conjunction with my older sister we took a plane that left us in Peru, when we arrived in Lima the airport did not have air conditioning and there was 98% humidity with fantastic 35 degrees Celsius, so we walked 3 meters and were full of sweat, the worst thing was that we had to wait 12 hours for the next flight, so we decided to go to the bar... to rest and drink water, obviously jiji

We arrived in Mexico, after 25 hours of travel!

It was Christmas, so the whole city was full of ornaments, lights and carols. We visited many churches, all had gold ornaments and paintings from the time of the Spanish Conquest. The museums were from another world... the Museum of Anthropology, was the one I liked the most, it was giant, they had textiles, ceramics, bones, books, animals and there was an exhibition of Lucy, so it was very entertaining and I learned a lot. I could not go to the pyramids of Tenochtitlan, because it was very expensive, but we went to the pyramids of Teotihuacan, we knew the pyramid of The Sun and The Moon, which in total had 365 steps.

                       



Raspberry flavor with HABANERO
We are vegetarians and we do not like spicy. All the food had meat, lemon and spicy, the fries had lemon and minced meat! the candies and ice cream were spicy!... So we ate for almost a month only pizza of mushrooms, cereals and salads, because when we ordered something meatless, they looked at us ugly and said, "We don't have that choice."

The only vegetarian option

                               
Mexicans are usually kind, although they constantly told us we were talking very quickly. For the New Year we realized that Mexico is a very party country, everywhere they sold alcohol and there was loud music, we drank something called "limonete" that was similar to the "michelada" that is known in Chile, but the "limonete" has spicy and salt ALL INSIDE THE GLASS and is served in a disposable glass of 2 liters.


It is time to go and as a farewell we went to the Japanese garden to have a picnic day, we met the Flyers of Chapultepec. It was a good end to our adventure. It was the best vacation because I learned and got to know many beautiful places, also because I went with my best friend, my sister...

    wow 25 hours of travel sound so much, but I think it was worth it. I think Mexico is a country with a lot of things to do there and you took advantage of that.
    I'm vegetarian too but I love spicy food... I think everyday pizza doesn't sound very bad haha. You visited that place with the best company <3

My cat

Imagen
  This time I’m going to write about my faithful companion, my cat. My cat is called Hobbes Dimitri Vladimir Vladivostok, his name is very long and powerful, but I did not choose it, so we all call them only Hobbes. He is 7 years old, the first 2 years of his life he was with my sister (she chose the long and powerful name hahaha) and then because of space problems he got to with me and never left again. It is the most tender cat that exists, it has never scratched anyone. All the mornings wake me up to open the bed and sleep next to me. He understands by his name and comes when they call him by his name, he looks like a dog instead of a cat. He is fear of moths and is very bad at fly hunting. Once he took him to the field, expecting him to play, but he only to sleep next to the woodstove. He is fear of moths, but with dogs the story is different, my dad has 3 dogs at home, they are littles and sleep with my younger sister, but in the holidays, the dogs must go to the yard,...

My career, love and hate

Imagen
Choosing my current career was difficult, at school I always liked numbers, I wanted to be an engineer for a long time, in my last year of high school I had a radical change and wanted to study medicine, in the end I never managed to decide which career to study. I went into baccalaureate in science and then I switched to baccalaureate in the humanities, I wanted to do everything at once, everything I liked. At the end of the first year of baccalaureate, a friend introduced me to an archaeology student and told me that anthropology allowed me to do everything, you could be a social anthropologist, health anthropologist, archaeologist, growth, coroner, and many other areas. She was telling things about the career that I really liked, so the next year I went into anthropology, when I walked in, I had doubts about what to mention the choice, but I decided on physics. I love my career, I love bones, but it is unmotivating the little work field that exists in Chile, nobody knows the caree...
