Tenth post: El Caleuche


I really love the south of Chile, but there is a magical and strange place: Chiloe. This place is characterized by the large number of myths and legends that circulate.

One of this is El Caleuche. This legend talks about a Galeon, I mean a big boat that sailed the seas of Chiloe.

Is manned by witches, and on dark nights lit sails and heard loud music and party. It lies in the middle of the fog. The ship never sails in the day. This music attracts sailors and shipwrecked. This people these become part of the crew of Caleuche.

According to popular belief people have drowned are picked up by this mysterious ship from the depths of the sea to be welcomed into eternal life. On the other hand, it is not as kind to those who have dared to address her gaze straight ahead.

Caleuche sailors have certain physical characteristics. They have only one leg to walk, on the other the lead folded back. On the other hand, it does not have memory. This is for prevent they say the secrets of what happens on board.


Some people say that when this boat takes people, it shows them big treasures. The boat promises give some but the people should not say anything about this meeting. So when a merchant became rich quickly is because it has hidden negotiations with the Caleuche.

Ninth Post: Interesting Animal



In this post, I will write about a very singular animal: bat. This is a very interesting animal because the bat is able to orient via echolocation, on the other hand, some bats are so dangerous because they can feeding on the human blood: the vampire bat. The bite can cause infection.

The bat is especially common in North Africa, Southwest Asia, and almost all Europe. We can also see it in Japan, Korea and Taiwan. They live in caves and big churches, abandoned places and under some trees.

It is a mammal that is characterized by nocturnal habits, and sleeping during the day. This is a small animal, not larger than 5 centimeters and can weigh approximately three to five kilograms. The length of their wings, stretched be achieved, notably about 25 centimeters.

They are sedentary animals, namely that unlike other animals, they do not migrate or transfer activity have much in terms of habitat. Their average life expectancy is about six years.

The teeth of the bats are so variable. According to the BBC, the morphology depends on the diet. In the world there exist different kinds of Bats: Exist Bats that eat and have a complex molar with irregular surfaces. Some authors believe that this complexity is because the textures of the fruit pulp cause erosion. Insectivores have less complex tooth surfaces. They have torn molars with very sharp edges.

On the other hand, vampire bats feeding on the blood of animals, including humans. Their food is liquid, so you will have fewer but sharper teeth.

Hi, in this post I would to talk about my future holidays.

I will travel to the south of Chile with my friends. We plan to stay in different cities like Valdivia, Temuco, Frutillar, Calafken and Osorno. We plan to travel throw different places. We plan to go camping between natural places. I really love to travel to these places because they are very close to each other.

I would like to go to Volcan Osorno. Between clouds and local legends, El Volcan Osorno is an icon of Southern Chile. This volcano is Outstanding and a privileged panoramic view of fields, forests and lakes. His ascension is a magical experience, an encounter with nature and oneself.

On the other hand, I and my family planned to go to meet the north of our country, specifically “Bahia Inglesa”. From what we have seen in the pictures it is a great place. It has a lot of beaches.

It has white sand, gentle slope, gentle surf and warm, clear waters, the beaches of Bahia Inglesa are recognized throughout the country. Some of them are El Chuncho, La Piscina y Playa Blanca, although it can also be accessed located in the surrounding beaches, like Bahía Cisne, Los Patos, Las Machas y Ramada.

Bahia Inglesa there are also places for sports and outdoor adventures. There are several beaches to visit and in some, the wind has done a good place for sports like kitesurf, which is practiced on a small table as long as you drive a comet the waves at high speed.



I Hope that I can do all of this!

Seventh Post: A Photograph I Like


Choose some picture about my favorite moments has always been a difficult work for me. Each one is unique and portrays a special moment in the life of each person. In this case, I chose a photograph where am I and my little sister. This picture was taken by my brother.


On that occasion we were in San Cristóbal Hill, I spend time with my family. I feel that this picture show me the gift that gave me the life to have someone so small with us. It is something like a metaphor for a gift fallen from heaven.


On the other hand, I always think that she will be someone who will need all the tools to manage in a world where people with Down syndrome have seen as something strange, almost angelic and almost non-existent capacity of criticism. More than change the perception of the society, she should be a person who know the value of life, love and free, regardless of how small and incompetent that we can be in this world. She will make it, she will be happy, I'm sure of that.

Six Post: A Skill I Admire


In this post I will talk about the abilities or skill that I admire. I admire the people that can speak, write, listening and read in much different languages. This ability has been underappreciated by the general population. This is because few times we wondered how we know about human history.

The language allows us to build our environment and give them some sense. On the other hand, it allows us to interact with others through a same system of symbols and signs.

Through the history, this people can help to connect different cultures. Thanks to these people found the contribution that different cultures have made to scientific knowledge. On the other hand, we can find how the culture and the behavior of our ancestors are.

I met a person who speaks four languages. Her name was Constanza and she loves to study languages ​​because is interesting. She knew Spanish, English, French, and is now learning Hebrew. Her dream was to be part of big organizations of language like RAE. Currently, she is preparing to go to college and want to study something related to it like Linguistic Anthropology or something related to the study of dead languages. She says it's very important to express ourselves differently and find specific words.

This is a skill that requires linking various words and their meanings. On the other hand, it requires us not think in our rules about grammar and opens our minds to a new way to build our thinking.

In my case, I hate to learn new languages, but I appreciate this ability. I think it has contributed much to mankind.

Fifth Post: My deam work



In this occasion I will talk about my dream job. Actually I study odontology in my country. This major need much practice more than memory or a big source of knowledge. I really like my future job because require than I know my patient and their behavior in oral practice.

In my opinion, a great job need the contact with other peoples, and for this reason I like my future profession.

Maybe, the problem of our work is the expensive treatment. On the other hand, many people can develop normally with a poor oral health. I think our profession promotes very high standards of beauty more than a good oral health.

For this reasons, I would like to change this and carry my profession to other kind of peoples. I would like to will get a specialization in Patients with Special Needs. In our society, we have many people ignored because they can´t be expressed as social norms permit. This kind of people teach us the simply thighs in the life. I can get this specialization in other country like Spain or England, but not in Chile and it takes 3 years.

In the future, I would like to work in Teleton Institute and help these children to have a good oral health.
