When I was a little boy I thought that when
I grew I would be a fire-fighter, that’s a common dream in childhood I think. Anyway,
when I became a little older, I have an encounter whit the technology, and I
thought that it would be awesome to be a hacker, like in the movie Hackers,
Swordfish or eXistenZ, lately I discover that I didn’t have really expertise in
the informatics. Finally in this time I would like a really calm job in a
beautiful, like ranger in a forest or to be in charge of a protected area. I
would like to work in a beautiful and quiet place. I think this kind of jobs
permits a lot of free time, in the middle of nowhere maybe I would have a lot
of time to take pictures of animals and landscapes, make trails and watch the
place, to take care it. I expect that like a geographer I can do that, maybe I will
be a little overqualified for non-responsible works jaja, but anyways I can
take a job with more responsibilities. I think this kind of job would be
perfect because its quiet and relaxing, far away from the city, that I really
think that is a creator of angry and stressed people. Other way that I can
found a job like that is becoming an investigator of natural places, maybe
would be a good idea, but implies more work and responsibilities, I don’t like
if I want that… finally I think, I didn’t like to much the idea of to work in
anything.
A travel between the forests of Chiloé
One of my most remembered travels is one
that I made to the park Tantauco, in Chiloé. We stay in Chiloé about a month,
but the walk through that specific place was unforgettable. We spend about five
days between the beginning of the trail in Chaiguata, to the final point in
Inio, it doesn’t have any road that connect the two points, so the only way to
go to Inio is through the trail in a five days walk or taking a boat from Quellón that delay about 6-8 hours. I go tho that place whit three other friends,
was an amazing travel, because between the two named points there was refuges
that we can use in very beautiful places. Anyway, one of the most remembered
things in that place is that to make the trail was very very difficult, because
there was path that requires a high fiscal condition, and no one of us had
it. Some trails between rest points had
like 20km of distance in a very difficult terrain. Anyway finally we arrive to Inio after pass for many lakes and rivers, we saw some Púdus, and enjoyed the night view. In Inio we knew the local teacher, a professor thar has about 5 students, a very nice woman, also we knew a pair of girls that was traveling whit their fathers in sailing boat.
This is the entrance to Chaiguata
Defending the territory: a little local fight
Hi everybody, in this post we can write
about anything, so I’m going to write about a conflict that is happening
nowadays near my house. It’s about a problem between the citizens and the local
government that want to use a green area that used to be use by the people of
the sector. So the people claims that the green area belongs to them, because
they have the ownership, by the municipality says that the paper of property it
isn’t valid, so they can do whatever they want, in this case they want to give
the terrain to an institution for the realization of a project that wants to
make social dwellings, very low cost houses in a place that is in social risk,
this can significant more problems because that space is the only green area that
the neighbour have, and the density of population is high today, and it will be
more high if the build more social dwelling. The place is about 5000m2 so isn’t
a big big place anyway for a super big project, the people says that the local government
was bought by the estate agency. At the moment the people are organizing local reunions
informing more and more citizens about the problem the last Saturday were a
reunion for talk about that and present the case to the community, they are
looking for legal resources and the support of political institutions and
anything that can help to defend their territory. I hope the people wins this, because
they really need spaces for recreation, moreover in a place exposed at social
risk is really necessary to have this kind of places that invite to the cohabitation
of people.
The Future
When I was a little boy a thought I will be
an informatics programmer, something like a hacker, I think that was because I love
the movies of cyberpunks and hackers, and anything that were a dystopic future;
I remember the horror of the movies like The Lawnmower Man, it was focused in
the dangers of the technology, other movie that I remember whit special
feelings its Cyborg and Blade Runner; so I was very influenced in my vision of
the future by movies like that, I tough the future itself will be apocalyptic, I
still believe a little that. Anyway, according the time was running, I decided
to study philosophy, but that doesn’t end well. Now I think it will be a triumph
to end the career and be a Geographer, I hope to find a job in a good
institution, and travel a lot, maybe live in the south, I really like the south
of Chile, I think that live in Coyhaique or Punta Arenas will be a very successful
future for me, and whit that I’m going to be happy. But one never knows what
the future want from us, so I really like to travel, if I can travel enough I thing
I will be happy in any thing that I could do. I actually don’t think in children
because I don’t think that the world is going to improve, maybe if I see
positive changes in the world I could imagine a life whit a child.

27f
When the earthquake arrives I was on whit
an ex-girlfriend in a place called Bullileo, it’s an artificial lagoon, a
reservoir for watering that is near Parral, in Maule. I was sleeping in my
tent, when suddenly woke up whit the move and the noise of the earthquake, it
sounds like cracking rocks and falling crystals breaking. We were very afraid
because we were at the bottom of the reservoir, and we tough that the wall that
support the reservoir can be broken. So
we wake up and put us the shoes for walk along the yard while the earth was
still moving. We meet other people and they said us that nothing happened to
the reservoir, so we were to sleep. At the other day, we meet whit the local
police group, so we can call our fathers, and they told us how was the
earthquake in the city; mi ex was very worried about his grandma that lives in an
old house in a rural location but she was fine anyway. The police invite us to eat, and we ate whit them, so we can ear how they passed the earthquake, they were worried about a friend that passes the earthquake in the frontier whit argentina in an observation post, one of them started to cry, because was worried about her family, he couldn't talk to them because nobody answered the phone. In the house of the
local police we could listen to the radio, and we heard that Parral, the
nearest location, was under chaos, so we decided not to move till the tings
were more peaceful. We stay three more days at Bullileo to the arrive of my father,
that came to us in the car to carry us to Santiago. It was like a 10 hours travel
because the bad state of the highway. Once in the house we could know about our
family, nobody of us suffer mayor consequences.
about my cat
I have a cat; it’s called Frunhilda, a.k.a.
Fruni. It’s a very special animal, first of all, because was the only who
survive of their brothers, the other all died after born when the days go by.
He is premature by, I think, a week if I remember good. We take care a lot of
she when was a little kitty. Her mother, called Kali (like the indian goddess) was
my first cat, but she left the house after Fruni’s birth, she hated Fruni, and
there was a time that Kali punched Fruni and bites her all the time, don’t know
well why, but a vet told us that the animals feel reject when are non-wellborn;
now she lives whit a neighbour near my house, my neighbour is an old woman who
lives alone, so she tell me that Kali makes her company, I’m good whit that
because Kali doesn’t fight anymore whit her daughter. When the time passed, we
could saw that Fruni doesn’t was a normal cat, she have difficult whit the
equilibrium, it was common for she for example to fall from the walls or miss
the point when she jumps. Another vet told us that she have mobility issues,
probably because she is premature. Anyway she doesn´t come out a lot, she is
always in the backyard taking sun, and she also likes to get in a birdcage and
takes her naps there. I really like cats, I really like Fruni. When she goes
maybe I’m going to have another cat, or maybe a dog, who I could train.
She is Fruni
