Independence Day holidays

Every year I celebrate Independence Day holidays one day with my family (parents, sister and boyfriend) and other day I am with the family of my boyfriend (his mother and sister). Usually I eat a lot of roast and typical food of Chile, also, I drink chicha and I dance “cueca”. Sometimes we go to the fonda to dance and play typical games of Chile.

I like Independence Day holiday because I can to enjoy with my family, I can to eat many food and there are some days free to rest. But I dislike is that during this time I get fat.

The last Independence Day holidays I had great time because it was a full week. The first days I was in Santiago celebrating with my family, we ate a lot and danced every day. The other days my boyfriend and I went to Valparaiso to the home of my aunt, there we played rayuela and drank wine. Also we walked along the beach and we took photos, the days were beautiful as the summer. I bought jewelry in the shopping of the beach and we ate seafood. Finally we returned to Santiago to prepared work for the next week.

I see you the next week

My best holidays

Today I want to talk about the best holidays of my life.

In the summer of 2008 I traveled to south of Chile, my boyfriend went with me and it was great because was our first travel together. We spent some beautiful vacation since Concepción until Chiloé, specifically in: Saltos del laja, Penco, Loncoche, Villarica, Lican ray, Ancud and Castro. We visited lakes, rivers and beaches and we enjoyed of amazing landscapes.

We traveled in bus with our backpacks and we stayed in camping site in the different places, we were backpacker aimlessly. We ate typical food of the places as curanto in Chiloé, seafood in the beaches and we drank beer and chicha. We bought gifts for our families and took photos for never forget these holidays. Also, we knew the culture of Chiloé as legends, the food, peoples and habits of the island.

I think that these were our better vacations because we had new experiences, we knew new places and we were free during some weeks, we did what we wanted. I will never forget these holidays! 

The following photo was taken before sailing for the Villarica Lake during a morning.

I see you

Mexico

A country I would like to visit is Mexico! Because I love Mexican food And I know some Mexican people are very cheerful and I guess that everyone should to be very nice. 

I know about Mexico that is a country very extensive and has 112 millions of peoples. I think that the best of Mexico has a lot of cultures, different kinds of peoples and languages. Also I have looked photos of its beautiful beaches through internet.

If I visited Mexico I’d like to visit “Ruinas de Teotihuacán”, it is a representative place of the azteca culture and is very famous for the tourists, I would take a lot photos in this place. One of the beaches I have always wanted to go to Cancún and enjoying some long vacations to relax me. Of course, I would like visit to capital of Mexico to I know the city life.

I would like to visit Mexico only on vacations to know this country but not for study, neither to work. 

See you,

Gisela.
