A subject you enjoyed studying

  

Well, English Literature was my favorite subject when I was a university student. I have always liked reading and my literature teacher, Mister Parada, made it even more fun. Every class was a complete discovery, a quest in which the books were an open window to a completely new world. The fascinating aspect of that class was that Mister Parada made us comprehend the meaning behind every setting or character. In his classes, he also showed us the relation between the story in the book and the historical moment in which the book was written. It was absolutely captivating. Attending his classes meant time really worth spending.

The Best Place I have been

 Well, I am not the kind of person who has traveled a lot, but from the places I have been I can choose Elqui Valley as one of the best places I have visited. I am sure that many people agree with me because it is a magical place. Elqui Valley is located in the Elqui province, fourth region. There are many villages and towns which seem to be frozen in time and that's something I love. What I like the most is the peaceful atmosphere - when it is not summer season, hahaha. I have a kind of autistic personality, so I like visiting this place when there aren't many people. If you like photography, Elqui valley is an excellent place to take pictures because colors, somehow, seem to look brighter there. Among the attractions you can find are, for example, Vicuña which is the biggest town you find on your way to the mountains. In Vicuña, there is a very interesting museum dedicated to Gabriela Mistral; there are also some very good restaurants and camping sites. I do recommend the home-made ice cream that you can buy on the corner across the square. If you keep going up the mountains, you'll find many other towns and villages. In the Cochiguaz valley there is a place where you can see how pisco is made. There is also a low-profile observatory called Mamalluca, there are plenty of places where you can experiment different kinds of treatment for your health, such as quarz treatment, yoga, reiki. And as you get further up, you find Pisco Elqui, a really beautiful town where you'll really feel it was worth traveling there.
