Wali?

I’ve never been amused by Disney movies. I mean yes, I’ve seen the classic ones when i was a lot younger, but today I just don’t think I’m able to sit through an entire Disney movie.

Well that last line was a lie, there’s one I think I enjoy, a lot indeed, and it’s name is Wall-E.

The entire concept of Wall-e it’s a futuristic dystopia that actually makes sense, and the way the world is going, it may actually be accurate. Besides the mature context of the movie, the characters are way too lovable. Wall-e, the out-dated naive robot who never had contact with an complex way of life (or machinery) gets to know E.V.A, who is an new wave technological robot, and they both begin to feel things for each other.

The things that i like the most of this movie are, on one hand, the fact that it shows that relationships does not fall back onto the features that comes beforehand in the individuals that are involved within, but  instead it depends on the energy put into the growth of the relationship itself, and in the other hand the fact that the things that saved the human race at the end, are their creations, showing that the creator and creation are in a dialectical correlation. 

Now tell me, which other Disney movie has this kind of meaning behind it, huh?

The Bridge

Life comes from experiences, Carpe Diem am I right? With that in mind, I find hard to break the inertia to start a trip somewhere, so when convince myself to travel I enjoy the most out of it.

Last summer, between 2018 and 2019 a friend of mine had her birthday celebrated in Valdivia, and some friends and I decided that backpacking was the best option. We were five, Alejandro, Bruno, Jaime, Cristobal and I. Of course, backpacking takes more time, but time wasn't quite lacking back then, and more time with friends it’s always nice, at least in my opinion.


Skipping the traveling part, which was nice as hell by the way, the best part for me of that entire trip was getting and staying in Valdivia. I had been in Valdivia once in the scholar tour, I got to see the Calle-Calle river, I smoked some cigarretes in the bridge and felt in love with the greenful colors and fresh temperatures. Back then I was a lot younger, I had a schedule to follow and the little time I spent there, I got it carved in my memories. Now I was there, with plenty of time, no schedule, better friends and tons of more independence. We went to Angachilla wetland, Niebla and some random museum downtown, and of course, that nostalgic bridge. The feeling of being there, a lot older and a lot wiser, made me see the contrasts of life, the ups and downs and that besides everything that happened, the good and the bad, it was worth it, for I was there again.

Iceland there i go

There's a lot to talk about different countries. Traveling is an experience I've always lacked, even though i feel like there's no other activity more productive, fulfilling and rewarding than getting to know different cultures, different places and paradigms, widening your own perspective of life by sharing experiences with people that live in different cultural and geographical circumstances.

On this behalf, i want to experience all of the above on Iceland. At first, for this blog, i was struggling on deciding if i wanted to talk about Iceland or Venice, but due to the geographical beauties of Iceland, i decided to go for this beautiful country.

 There's not much i know about Iceland in contrast of how much I'd like to go there, the few things i do know are that the sub glacial tundra and magnificent mountains take my breath away and that the Viking culture is glorified amongst the different continents. If i ever go there, I'd like to talk to people about how this two phenomenons affects on their lives, get to know the touristic places and history museums.
The first is to contrast how my country's historical pressure affects on Chilean people, and how their historical pressure affects on them. About the touristic places and history museums is just to get to know better the country and its cultural behavior at is finest, for i would never live in that place judging by my current knowledge (i don't know how the political issues are, which are the people's problematics and by first hand, i think there's way too much cold, and i like summer just as much as winter), and i would like to see if that place, its history, culture and people can change my mind.
