Level 4, Intermediate, Post 6, 'Postgraduate Studies'

Well the truth is that I do not have any plan in mind, but if I would like to continue studying, to specialize in some subject of my interest, and also continue learning one more about what I'm studying, that is why I would like to become a Master in Work Social, and it would also guide me to specialize in topics such as Education, Gender and Environment at the University of Chile. However, I'm much more motivated by the idea of ​​going to study abroad issues that make me very interested, such as decolonialism and feminism. One option may be a postgraduate diploma in Andean thought and decolonial feminism at the Institute of Andean Cultures of Peru. I would like to study in a mixed system where there is practice and research, and that it is part-time, so that I can develop in other things that interest me, such as learning about crops and agroecology, which is another subject that interests me a lot. I would also like to take a course on this but it would not be a postgraduate,...

Level 4, Intermediate, Post 4, 'Compost'

Imagen
Hi, today I'm going to talk about a method to  take advantage of the organic waste that we generate in home, I talk about the composting. the composting is a transformation process of organic waste, like the vegetable peels, to obtain a natural fertilizer, called compost.  The 40% approx. of the garbage generated in homes are organic, so this can be reciclated, and would contribute to many things, like reducing the garbage that reaches landfills, and also, contributes to the nutrition of plants returning this material to the earth, without affecting the environment, contrary of this, the compost gives life to the ground, because it is full of necessary microorganisms for life to arise. There are many forms to do compost, however the easiest way is to make a hole in the ground and gradually add the organic material, always accompanying with some of dry material, like dry leaves or just more soil. Nature will do its thing, and you only have to worry about stirring every t...

Level 4, Intermediate, Post 3, 'Themed Free Post'

Today I'm gonna talk about a theme that is interesting and important to me, and it's related to what we eat, and where it comes from. I talk about the big food industry, the transgenic and mass-gorwn fruits and vegetables that are distribuited in the largest supermarket chains.  The buy of food in supermarkets has been normalizated over the years, because it is easier, and faster, and perhaps even cheaper. But what hey dont say us, is that these foods are passed for many chemical products such as pesticides, which can seriously affect our health. For this, the only way to avoid this situation is learn to grow our food or prefer local products, and let us depends on the big industries that end up contaminating the earth and ourselves. The last year this matter began to be more talked thanks to the protest against the aprobation of the tratu called TPP11, which, apart of many things, it gave the powers to these mega companies to continuie using pesticides, and prohibiting the fr...

My best holidays ever

My best holidays ever was in the 2018 year when I went to South of the country with my friends and sister. The trip lasted more or less one month  was a backpaking trip, so we camped, and we cooked our food, I remember that in the begin our backpacks were very heavy, because we carried a lot of food like rice and beans (all of us are vegeterian). We toured places like Frutillar, Valdivia, Puerto Montt and Chiloe, in this last one we stayed the most, because we fell in love with a beach in Ancud. It was a very beautiful place, also we meet other people very friendly. We stayed  I consider this trip the best so far because the freedom that I felt is an unexplained feeling, I knew places very beautiful, felt the fresh air, the sea, and the nature, and shared with people very amasing too.  Also this was my first trip with friends only, so I keep it in a nook of my heart ❤
