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.

Eight Post: My Future Summer



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!
