I liked it because I was missing something in the first semester,  I needed an hour of English in my regular time, but I will like that the subject had more levels so we could improve our English without going to another faculty.
My grammar and fluidity at the moment of speaking, as well as my modulation. I really feel frustrated when I’m speaking with a person and I get stuck at talking. After finishing this subject I will continue to study English and I’ll try to make the time to take the advanced level of English in another faculty.
With my best friend, we share the same passion for learning other languages, in fact, she is studying applied linguistics. And every time we see each other we try to improve our speaking talking in English. And every time I see I can help another person that is lost or need something and I can notice that they can speak our language I help them. One time a couple of German came next to a gate that is close to my house and my father with signs told them that I could help them with the things that they were looking for when they arrived they tell me that they were looking for a bird, the couple were ornithologists, I told them were they could find him and they ask me if I would like to join them, it was an amazing day, I knew a lot of birds and implements that they had to attract birds. One of the best day that I had.

Hi guys! Today I'm going to talk about one of my favourites series; Vikings.
Vikings is a  historical tv series based on the history of Vikings, forgive the redundancy, specifically when Earl Haraldson gives the order of raid the East of Baltic states again knowing yet knowing that the people there were as poor as they. A farmer, Ragnar, who is in disagreed with the Earl and has given by travellers a device to sail west where the stories claimed that there were towns with plenty of gold and silver and with a new discovering story unfolds; Ragnar achieving his goals and dreams, his sons becoming great warriors, discovering new lands in Europe and, the thing that I like the most, how the cultures and beliefs interrelate each other causing that the characters beginning to question their religion.

I love Vikings because is faithful with the costumes of the characters, how they show the ascension of kings that exist like Ecgberht, Ælle, Æthelwulf, Alfred, Ragnar, etc. On the other hand, characters as Ragnar it's not so certain that he really exists. His appearance and legend are told in stories from the Norse mythology and songs from this people.

Now this series is in season 5 were the sons of Ragnar are fighting for Kattegat, the city of the King. Bjorn, son of Ragnar, and Lagertha, his mother that it is a shieldmaiden and a defeated Queen, are taking forces to win the throne and Kattegat again for Lagertha and defeat Ivar, also the son of Ragnar.

Well, I wasn’t well informed about world ecosystem conflicts, just how it is created and the damage that they can cause but not about the news from Quinteros. Because of that, I start to investigate ecosystem conflicts and I find an investigation from The Eco Expert, they are a solar panels comparison website formed by investigators and they did a blog that present and prove the most polluted cities around the world. With the result that included air pollution, light pollution and noise pollution, combined these three factors they created a scales that allowed them to give a score of pollution to cities.
In air pollution they took data from the World Health Organisation ’s on PM 10, that is Particulate Matter (mix of very fine solid and liquid particles suspended in the air) found in the air of 10 micrometres or less and 2.5 micrometres, the finest particles and the worst of the two, because this PM can reach to your lungs and alveoli that can cause you lung cancer. in light pollution, they took data to find the level of artificial light pollution at night for each city. In noise pollution, they use the Mimi Hearing Index to get noise pollution data and each city was given a score of noise pollution.
These three types of pollution were combined and give to the cities a score from 0 to 100 if the city is closer to 100 the pollution is bigger and if the city is closer to 0 the city has less pollution.

As you can see in this table the most polluted city is Cairo, Egypt with a score of 95.83. Estimating being 24 hours in Cairo is like smoking a pack of 20 cigarettes.

Well, as I said in the previous post, I would like to continue my studies with doing a P.H.D  on Agronomy and then study Zoology including a P.H.D on that field.

In France, there is a university that I'm very interested, it’s called the Université de Bordeaux ( University of Bordeaux). They have various masters degrees on agronomy and P.H.D of Oenology and Viticulture. This doctorate is an international programme aimed to address the new challenges in the field of viticulture and Oenology, and it's international because it is created with his university partners. Those universities are from France, Spain, Portugal, South-Africa, Chile, etc. The Universidad de Chile ( University of Chile) is a partner in his programme. So I'm very happy with that!

The Oenology is the science, technic and art of making wine. And the person that studies Oenology it's called oenologist.


But there is a new area opening in agronomy and it is agroecology and it's called agroecology. Agroecology is the study from ecological processes applied to the agricultural production. I find it very interesting because you don’t have to change the whole terrain that you are going to work, talking about killing the microorganism, bad weed, and other vegetables that are in your field to create a monoculture ( the cultivation of a single crop on a determined field).

Well in my case I would like to graduate from a P.H.D, and then continue my studies on zoology and, why not, take another P.H.D on that field, and then combine those fields and work on Sanctuaries, protecting the flora and fauna on it, and with it, the ecosystem, doing studies there. It will be perfect for me, fell complete knowing that I'm doing something good to something bigger.

They created an environment where you can visit the animals, like a zoo, but bigger and in an enormous bigger free space.
 There is a visit to the Wolfs where you can meet them and interact with them in a group with an animal keeper.

I will also like to follow the path of agronomy in dedicate my self to be an Enologist and work on a vineyard and combine different types of grapes, taste new flavours and always focus on crating something better. As well mix that with cooking that is my favourite hobby now and one of my biggest passion.
I always love the idea of going to a recognized vineyard and participate in a vintage. Learning about why their wines are unique and how they do all the process, from grabbing the grape from the plant and  make it wine

Hi! Well my favorite films are Guardians of the Galaxy and 1922 that is a book from Stephen King and that book is my favorite.
 1922 is based on Stephen King's story telling of a man's confession of his wife's murder. The tale is told from the perspective of Wilfred James, the story's unreliable narrator who admits to killing his wife, Arlette, with his son in Nebraska. But after he buries her body, he finds himself terrorized by rats and, as his life begins to unravel, becomes convinced his wife is haunting him.




But talking about films, I like more sitting to watch series or documentarys. I love documentarys and my favorite one is The hunt.

It is a BBC documentary that takes the perspectivo from a depredador from the nature and shows you what the animal is going to do and why.
Each chapter tells you a new story from any animal, like leopards, polar bears, spiders, etc. and teach you as well the importance of respective ecosystems.




This is a scene from the chapter from the Portia spider. Portia is a genus of jumping spider that feeds on other spiders. They are remarkable for their intelligent hunting behaviour, which suggests that they are capable of learning and problem solving.

Well I have been in just one concert and went to see Black Sabbath and Rival Sons, but talking about music my best experience was Lollapalooza 2017, it was perfect, a festival that would include the most part of bands that like to my friends and my so, we group up in a group of 3 and went to the festival. The festival lasted three days and we stay in a department of a aunt of my friend.

The Festival was awesome, I went to see Weichafe, Cage the Elephant, Duran Duran, Tus Amigos Nuevos, Two Doors Cinema Club and the two best ones was The Strokes and Metallica.
Metallica was a such good presentacion, they play all their best songs, there was fireworks too, and end up moshing, so it was the best for me at least untlill today.


This is a photograph from The Strokes on Lollapalooza.

And this one is from Metallica.

And this one is a view from above the presentacion.
