A place I would love to visit

 To be honest, I would like to travel to many parts of the world, to see and perhaps live there. But if I had to choose a place to visit outside of Chile (I have never left the country), I think that the first would be Italy. This country has always caught my attention for its cultural richness and more now that I am studying a career related to art, heritage and the importance of knowing the history of every place to understand how it becomes what it is know. 

I would like to visit the ruins from Rome, the arquitecture in Florence and go to all the popular places where I can found the museums and see the paintings that for now I can only see through a proyector in class. I have a plan in a medium-term of time that is live in a "country side" of Italy for a period of five to ten years and know all the places around, starting from the Popular or "tourist" sites and from there start to absorb the history and art of the old continent.  

Although, I would like to mention that there was one place I treasure so much, wich was "Easter Island" (fun fact, the name of the island it should be "Rapa Nui", wich is the name that the locals considers correct), that I visited like 5 years ago and it have so much to tell really that I can't express myself confortly through here, but the food, the history of the locals and the famous "Moai sculptures", and really everything about it, that place it got something very "magical"; when i visited Rapa Nui, I couldn't believe that it is part of the national territory, starting that the island is located at more than 3000 km from the nearest city, wich is "Valparaíso".

   

This is a picture that I took of the local festival "Tapati" 

Another picture that I took on the top of one of the most high volcanos on the island
 
Here I was in "Terevaka", one of the 3 pillar volcano's  that formed the island

My best holiday ever

In the last blog I talked very shortly about the time when I visit Rapa Nui and why I fell in love with the place. Now I can try to complete the story. I went to Rapa Nui five years ago in the summer of 2018, it was my last year of school and all my classmates were going to Brazil for the typical school tour of the last years of school. I did not wanted to go there and also I did not had the enough money for that trip, so I dicided that I was not going. Know I understand that I did not wanted to go for more important reasons that the ones that I just said, the reality was that I did not like to much the classmates that I had on those days. Finally I had a conversation with my mum and the both of us decided that instead of going to a school tour, we could go to a family tour to the place that we were planning to go for the last couple of years, Rapa Nui. So we bought the plane tickets and made the hotel reservation. The fun fact was that in the last minute my boyfriend (that was also ...

Changes to my study programme

As I already mentioned in a previous blog, the career I'm studying at this moment, Theory and History of Art, isn't my first career in Universidad de Chile. I study Theatre Design for two years and a half in the Art faculty, Theatre Department, where we had similarities in some subjects with my current carrer, however, the diferences on both of the faculty facilities (Las Encinas vs Theatre Department) are huge. First of all, we have to think about the fact that the theatre department is a patrimonial building, so they can't make any structural changes, so the estructural conditions aren't good for having two careers at the same time, sharing that space. I remember that sometimes we had to fight with the other career for the classrooms, because there weren't many of them; or we had to put the lecterns too close to each other so we can actually draw the model that we had to. We also had ilumination courses, but we only had one spotlight and a very little room to pra...
