All the Mondays you have to write on your blog…

Since I was a child I have had English classes and like all things, though you seem strange at first, gradually you like it. On my way learning I lived different experiences like camps, work with exchange teachers, discussion group, etc., but I never made a blog.

This caught my attention not only because I had never made a blog of any kind also for the characteristic of being a “long-term project” that involves more than hours in front of the blackboard.

At first I didn’t know how to name my blog also didn’t know the names of some partners but with blogs we got to know better our origins and preferences.

My skills for write are better than before (I think) or at least I can “think in English” faster, and the best is that happened without noticing because I was writing entertaining or interesting things about my own experience, also increased the number of words that at first it was a challenge now is not so much.

In the future the blog could be more visited for other people, not just us and because we have to do a comment, maybe a project with English speakers and they can do a blog in Spanish hahahaha.

All the topics have their interesting part, and the blog is one of the opportunities to express, continue saying what we feel and think.

SKILLS

For me was no so difficult choose my favorite subject Skills development and self‐care for professional practice or more simple Skills as everyone named.

 At first I saw this subject in my schedule and I had no idea what was, undoubtedly it sounded interesting but I did not investigate more. Time after I read the manual mechón, I knew what it was and what we will do there, then all I wanted was to have skills ( the subject and ´´real´´ skills too). But I can´t deny, that scared me a little bit, don´t have enough skills to do a good manual job.

When the subject began we a had a lot of round tables about dentistry, a kind of history of the social importance of health in general and oral health and history of dentistry. For many people this was bored but for me was good, I think is necessary have a commitment to history and society, and for that we need first know about the topics.

But finally what I like more about this course are the practical classes, there you can ¨ play at being dentist ¨, using the instrumental and working differently to all other classes, I learned a lot about dental work and still left me a lot to learn, but the best is it that I love <3

South sweet South

I really like south, I was born there and I think is a magical place with a lot of natural beauty and many green spaces (and a not so nice weather hahaha). There you feel relax and this is one of the principal reasons because people chose the south of Chile for vacations and too the magnificent places… and the fun.

We have a lot of wonderful places, Valdivia with the German legacy or Chiloé with legends and fishers but one of my favorites places in the south is Pucón, has the volcano Villarica and thermal springs in the winter, in the summer the lake and a lot of extreme sports and all the year this city have too good food and parties.

Another adorable place is Huilo-Huilo when you stay there you feel in a magical forest, this have a lot of ways where you can do hiking, a really nice hotel and other options, like houses in the trees, too.

I can´t finish my post without talking the Austral road, more far but a really good experience with a lot of adventures. I stayed there in 2014 with my music group and we take the “far way“ sailing for a lot of hours and going for really extremely roads but only of this way you know people and you can catch the essence of the south.
