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.

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 ❤
