Knowing the world

I love to traveling and meeting many different cultures and people. That is the reason because now I live here, in Chile.
In the 2000 I traveled to Australia for 45 days, I visited Sydney and Brisbane. The Australian’s people are very nice. Also I visited Unites States in 1997, I liked Washington and New York, but I really disliked Miami, maybe because I had high expectation.
In the future I would like to travel for Italy, especially to know Lombardia, because the grandfather of my grandfather was Italian and I feel a connection with this country. On facebook I connected whit some of my family in Italy and my “cousin” Marco told me that he can accompany me to see the country.
When I am in Italy I want to breathe the air and imagine my ancestor felt. Also I like to learn to speak Italian, now I know some words, but not enough. I feel that knowing a language is learning the culture.

I hope that someday soon I walk through the land of my ancestors.

Christmas Day

For the Christian people, in Christmas celebrates the birth of Jesus. This celebration is on 25th of December, when the day is larger than the night (for the northern hemisphere). I love the Christmas because for me that day is a day of rebirth of all thing good, is a hugs day and kiss day, full of good energy :)

I love the Chrisman’s tree and the present, but the people generally go crazy and I get stressed. For my family Christmas is very important because my grandfather birthed this day, but he died five years ago :’(
I like the Christmas because we usually dinner together and later we talked all the night. But this Christmas I was in Santiago, is very sad because I wanted go my house whit my family and friends.  But I still like the Christmas <3
