A Chilean Building


Hello today, in this blog, I would like to talk of a Building here in Chile, It's called "Centro de innovación Anacleto Angelini" , A building placed on Campus San Joaquin of Catholic university of Chile, It was Projected by Alejandro Aravena, a famous Chilean architect, winner of a Pritzker on Two thousand and sixteen.

I have visited this building in a pair of times, but I just entered once. In the past semester, one of the works we received was go to Campus San Joaquin to make croquis of certain buildings there, and the "Centro de Innovacion" was there, I remember that I went there like six times In two weeks to complete the croquis, and the last day, when we had to show our work; in the morning of that day, I entered to that building, It was really different of the inside that I imagine, The building wasn't really big inside, but was nice anyway. An extra fact of this building is that, for his ubication it could be seen from the Metro between the San Joaquin station to Camino Agricola station.

I like this building for certain things , first of all, the form of the building is interesting, the material for his construction, the process to build, the idea for the construction, although the idea was really quite simple (cut, move and replace parts of a big cube) , it was  a great idea and make the build very nice to see, In addition to that , the building has a minimal waste of energy, Is one of the most efficient buildings in Chile.

Something that passionate me.

Today, I will write about something really important for me, something that goes with me to anywhere, the music.

It could sound like something that anyone would say, music is company for too much people, but i feel it like something (for me at least) is more important.

Everything start when I was a kid, my parents get divorced when I was four years old, and that made that the relationship Father-Son with my dad were limited to could see him on the weekend and vacations, anyway, in the time when I could be with him, we listen to different types of music, like, rock, or metal, or different styles, We used to sing and play guitar, but, when I was a child I only could sing and my dad played the guitar, that was something really important for me in that time.

When I grow up, like twelve years old, I started to learn about some instruments and how to play it, first of all I learnt to play guitar, then bass and then more instruments, and with that knowledge, me and my dad could play together and sing together too. Then I started to participate in some music workshops in my school, where I learnt more, and that was a time that i will never forget.

Music makes me fell complete, is with me when I work for the university, when I’m going to FAU, even when I’m writing this, and I think is something that never going to leave me.

A great holiday.


Today I'm going to write about one of my favorite place ever, where I had a very good holiday. It was two or three years ago I guess (I don't remember it exactly), my dad told me about a trip that one of my uncles was preparing to Coquimbo, a beautiful city with nice weather that I like too much. He told me to go there, and I accepted, that moment was too exciting for me because I had nice memories of a past trip to Coquimbo, and make a trip there again made me feel happy in that moment.Me, my dad, his wife and my uncle went to Coquimbo some days later, I remember that we went there in a very tiny car, so we have to made very stops on the road to move our legs ( eight or nine hours without moving inside a car are not too much enjoyable ), anyways, after nine hours of traveling we arrived to Coquimbo, my uncle before the trip rented a department closer to the beach for a week , with a nice pool and a room only for myself. after we installed we went to buy food for the week on a nearly supermarket to get prepared for our stay.

In Coquimbo you can make too much things, there’s a city called La Serena, it seems like both cities were only one , and that cities has very different activities, like visit La Serena's light house, or the third millennium cross on Coquimbo, or even visit all the different beach that the city has, that kind of activities we made in that trip.

I enjoyed that holidays because I could spend great moments with my dad, and visit too much places of one of the beautiful cities that i ever knew. I think that a trip to Coquimbo it's very close.
