Friendship

Hello everyone. This week I'll tell you about my friends. Throughout my life I have met many good people, loving and kind that have given me happy moments, however, not many people had stood by me throughout the years. I remember fondly each and every one, but there’re few that I can consider true friends.
In my school days I had a stable group of friends, we were considered the "nerds" of course, but we never really mattered, we were happy with our whining :). My best friends from then are called Catalina, Luz Marina, Camila and Denise. I have always valued honesty, trust, kindness and dedication of all of them. I think these are important virtues for a long lasting friendship.
I don’t make friends easily, honestly I consider myself a pretty shy person, I can hardly show my personality with new people in my life, but I've been fortunate to meet people willing to enter the long way which means to know me and also have shared their virtues, their love and their time:).
As for me ... I try to be a good friend, I do everything that I can to help my friends when they need it and I care to tell them and show them they can always count on me.
Throughout my life I've had more than one best friend, but the one that has marked my life more deeply is Catalina. We met in college.We were fellow students from the 7th through 4th medium. We had a lot in common, I felt very comfortable and happy with her. When we graduated and entered in college, we drifted apart... We still talk, but it's pretty sporadic, and now we do not have much in common, however, I still cherish memories of those incredible years of friendship.
In college I made great friends and I hope our friendship to last for many years :). Paulina, Makarena, Ada, Carolina and Dario are the people who make my college days more motivating, entertaining and dynamic :D

My Vacation



Hi everyone! Holidays are my favorite time of the year. I love having free time, traveling, going to parties, walking around the city, well ... I love getting up and my only concern is: how to enjoy today? =)

Usually I visit the south of Chile. With my family I go camping to Constitution, near a beautiful lake, which lies at the foot of a mountain and a few meters from a beach and it opens almost every night. We enjoy boating around the lake and up to the river, between the mountains. At night we like to make a campfire to cook something delicious, play guitar and sing around the campfire while eating marshmallows.
I´m in a relationship since 2006, and since then we went on vacation together. There are four scenarios: going out with my family, hanging out with his family, hanging out with friends or be only the two of us =). We like to make the most of the holiday season.
With my boyfriend's family we have visited La Serena, Concepcion, Salto del Laja, Papudo and Santa Cruz, among others. My boyfriend's family has an apartment in Papudo, and we always go in the summer to spend several days there.
I have gone abroad three times. As a child I traveled to Venezuela to meet my paternal family. I visited the cities of Caracas and Barquisimeto. Then, when I was 15, we traveled to Argentina, specifically Mendoza, and my last trip abroad was to Brazil. In one of my sabbatical years, I went with an aunt and my brother to visit Buzios. We toured beautiful beaches, tasted exotic foods in a boat and sailed to a paradise island =).
Anyway ... visiting new places and spend time with the people I like make holidays my favorite time of the year.
