My best holiday

My best holiday ever was two years ago. I went with my friends (we were like 10 at the moment) to a country house near Olmué, in the V region of Chile. There, we were like a full week by our own, in the middle of nature, in a large distance from the nearest town (like an hour in car). We were friends since childhood, but in there we realized that in fact, we are a family. That's why it is the best holiday I had ever have. Some days we made barbecue, some others we cook elaborate food (one in the group studies cuisine), and some others we eat what we could (like different mixes of leftovers). Meanwhile the time was going on, we tended to sleep almost all the day, waking on the afternoon to eat something, and party all the night. We also played a lot of football (we really enjoy it) and music (we enjoy it even if we are not really good musicians), and of course there were some days we did absolutely nothing. Now, I thing that even if it was a great experience, luckily it don't last more than a week, because ours bodies would not bear a such live rhythm for a longest time; in fact, once returned to Santiago, I sleep like a full week before y could get out of my home and do something.          

A country you'd like to visit

In first place i have to say one thing: I really don't know much about others countries. Whatever it is, I've been attracted all my life by the life in the Amazons.  I had read a lot about it, like anthropological studies about primitive peoples of the area, or more recently sociological informs from the life in there. The Amazon it's a gigantic zone who include several countries from South America, including Brazil, Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, Colombia, Paraguay and Venezuela. I have a plan: I will travel trough the Amazon jungle to know, in a first person experience, how it's the life in there and to try to rescue some of the millennial knowledge cultivated there (and who it's, in a great measure, already destroy in the hands of the white culture). So, it's not a country i'd like to visit, but a hole area in the heart of South America.

During the first term of 2012 I learnt a lot about the Chilean history at the university, and I discovered that it is much more complicated and interesting than what I tough during my time at school. I used to go to the stadium, and I did it very often during the year, even I took a bus to Rancagua to see my favorite team. 

In general, it was a good period of my life, in fact I solved a lot of family problems I had, essentially in my relationship with my parents. I’m very close to my friends, and that’s why I saw them a lot, and made different stuffs together, like playing football, drinking beer, making barbecues, climbing the mountain, traveling… almost everything that you can imagine it would be fun to do it with nice people.

I had a lot of introspective moments, that gave me nice experiences and the possibility to order my ideas inside my mind. 

presentation

My name is Nicolas Piquer, i am an university student (sociology at the "Universidad de Chile"). This blog was created in a first instance to fulfil a task for the english lessons. Whatever it is, i will use this platform to share my world with you, anonymous reader. I'm 21 years old, and that means i'can be jailed if i get caught breaking the law. It also means that i can travel, buy a car, smoke cigars or drink alcohol if i want (and have enough money). My family story is long and boring, and also complicated, that's why i will not say anything about it, just trying to love them fathers and brothers (i really do). When i'm borred, i sit down until the feeling goes away. I love to read, go to the stadium, and alter my nervous system with different substances. I hate people because they make me feel nervous and anxious, but i love my friends.
