POST 4: ESSAY ON MASCULINITY, FATHERHOOD AND FEMINISM

I am very grateful to be able to have these kinds of tasks with such valuable inputs. I think that the problem of fatherhood in Chile is something that creeps from its origins.  It is very common to hear about the "huachos" who are nothing more than children abandoned by their fathers.  Although this is a common situation, it develops more in the poorest classes. I think that is something in common between our society and the USA in which African Americans live.

POST 3: MY PET

I currently don't have any pets but when I lived in my parents' house I had the opportunity to rescue many dogs and cats. It all started when we adopted my first puppy. I never thought that my mother would let me keep her, but when she saw that she was lying in a box , abandoned, she agreed. And that was just the beginning. With my sisters we walked together from school to the house and on that tour we always ended up in trees going down cats or under cars taking out puppys. Luckily my parents always agreed to pay the costs of the veterinarians, in addition to adopting them until they were strong and could find a new house.  The exercise of rescuing animals has allowed me to develop much more empathy for others.  I ate meat without guilt until I was 20, but there came a time when I simply couldn't continue doing it.  I would like all people to rethink the way we relate to food and animals.

Four years later after that she gave us Melodrama ... an album simply perfect. A fun fact about that occasion was the travel to Santiago. My bf and I had to travel from Arica in a truck. A BIG TRUCK!!! We cross the Atacama desert to see Lorde. HAHAHA. The father of my friend is a truck driver and we didn't know that we could travel until ...

POST 1: A COUNTRY I'D LIKE TO VISIT

SELVA DE LA AMAZONIA Hello! Today I will write about a country I’d like to visit. I’d like to travel to The Amazonia. Well the jungle of the Amazonia is not a country in itself, in fact the jungle share territory between Brasil, Perú, Bolivia, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Guyana, Guayana Francesa y Surinam. This zone is protected and managed by this nine countries.                              The Amazonia is the most extensive rainforest in the world and its varied of flora and fauna  allow it to act as a climate balancer for the world. In this place still exist virgin territories, that means they haven't been intervened by human industry. At present the Amazonia is threatened by the stock industry and is that is very sad. I’d like to visit this place to know and share with the people that protect and care the jungle. Especially with the amazon women who has...
