Blog 1: A country that I would like to visit

 Hi everyone! I’m Iván González and I will tell you in this blog about a country that I would like to visit :)

 

Before I start to talk about the specific country, I’ll say that the travel that I would like to do in a future is to know Southeast Asia in general, but almost for random or insignificant reasons (that I will specify later), if I need to choose one country in specific, I’ll choose Thailand.

Like I said before, I want to know and go to Southeast Asia, because I like a lot the culture of the place, and in my personal opinion, in the Western countries we see their philosophy in a contemptuous way, like a “spiritual thing” or a “hippie life”, and not like a different perspective to see the life, or a different lifestyle. And I would like to know that in a direct way, mainly the Buddhist philosophy.

About Thailand I know no more than the general information, like its capital (Bangkok), the general tourist places like beaches, that there are a lot of temples (like our churches), and the stereotype that they’re fine people that live united between them, and live in a more harmonious way than us.

I said it before, but the main thing that I would like to do is know the culture, but not like in a tourist way, but getting immersed in the people that live there and their reality, knowing their form of life and maybe, living there! But I don’t have a serious plan so I’m not sure, but anything can happen.

Hi! I’m Ivan (again), and today I will talk about the postgraduate studies To start, I’m nineteen years old so, psychology is my first career, and I have not studied something before, but really I’m not sure if I want to study a postgraduate or not, but that doesn’t means that I have never considered it before, in fact, I wanted before entering the university, because I wanted to study Bachelor degree in exact sciences with mention in physics (I know that is a weird name) but it is, practically physics, I wanted to study a PhD in quantum physics because I loved it, and I was like, for three years approximately, thinking that I needed to study a lot of PhD’s in physics, because to do that is like the usual process to do investigation in the physics area. To do investigation, you need to study like 10 years, and you can do it in different universities, so I wanted to study in different countries of Latin America, that because when I went to a university to know about the physics stu...

Blog 2: The best concert ever

  Hi everyone, in this blog I will talk about the best concert ever that I went to. This concert was in 2015 and was a festival called “Santiago gets louder”, there was a lot of rock/metal bands like “Weichafe”, “Deftones”, “Faith no more” and my favorite band at that moment “System of a down” (and a lot more but so long). For me, it was a really nice experience, because I was a child (13 years I think) and I was like “exploring” the different bands and scenarios, and I knew new bands that I didn’t know like “De la tierra” and “Temple agents”, with the last one, it was a funny moment, because they sang and talk the entire concert in English, and at the final of they concert they said like “wena cabros ”  and it was so astonishing because they were Chilean. The best moment for me was when System of a down starts playing, because they started with a song that starts like singing with the spectators, and not so heavy, and after that starts with heavy metal, and in that mome...
