A Chilean landmark

Today I want to tell you about the Cross of the Third Millennium, which is located in Coquimbo, in the north of the country. Specifically in the center of the peninsula where the port of Coquimbo is located.

I visited the place in February 2017 during my vacation with my family, we traveled to the north of the country, as it was a place my parents wanted to visit and it was the first time we made a long trip with my father. We decided to get to know the city so we visited popular places and of course, we got to go. 

With my family, we decided to climb to the top of the cross by the stairs, because then we could see the whole place and also because we ate a lot during that trip. My entire family is catholic, so we like to visit different churches during our vacation. This place may not be only a church nevertheless it is also a monument of the religion, this is because the shape of the monument represents the holy Trinity and I think the monument was made to celebrate the 2000th birthday of Jesus but I am not sure.

You can see it from any point in the city, I think it is because the height is almost 100 meters but it is very impressive to see. I liked visiting it because you can see the whole city and the Pacific Ocean, as the meaning of the cross is catholic I like to see different references to the religion through the building and understand what it means.

Job

Today I will talk about a job I would like to do in the future.  Since I was little I loved to play with mini furniture later in my adolescence I liked to play sims and find different ways to decorate spaces. The job I would like to do in the future is interior design because it's important to represent our personality in our spaces. Also, I like combining styles and colors in different places for different activities. I need qualities like being critical, creative, and a good planner because it is important for this job and I have to design the space and how to place the furniture efficiently. I would be good at this job because I like to see the before and after of spaces, and discover different furniture and ways to use them, and also because I like to mix colors and styles to make the perfect mix. I don't have a specific person who does this job and is my inspiration however I have enjoyed watching shows like "The Home Edit" and "Interior Design Masters"...

FP Top 5

Well, this past week was very relaxing without class and work. I don't do too many things, but I am still going to talk a little bit about them. Sleep I had a good time sleeping during the week, but my sleep schedule is very messed up because of that. The truth is that I would go to bed early but stay up very late at night doing other things. Watching series It's difficult for me to watch series constantly so this week I decided to catch up on all the episodes I had not seen. One of the series I saw was The King's Affection, it is about a girl who has to pass for her twin brother who was the heir to the throne but he died. Going out with friends During this week I went out with my friends to celebrate the birthday of one of them, we did a lot of things but one of my favorites was to eat Korean food at one of my favorite places because I haven't eaten there in a long time. Hobbies One of my favorite things is doing legos so this week when I went to shop with my mom and a...

Something you enjoy doing outdoors

Well, I'm not an outdoor person because I prefer to stay at home and watch movies or series, but if I have to think of something I like to do outdoors it's going for walks, but not difficult walks like hiking because I have problems with my feet. So I like to walk in parks, all kinds of parks. I think I started doing this when I was little because my house is near a big park that crosses many blocks and also near my grandparents' house which was one. And also because my mother and her mother like to go for long walks, so I was always with them. The only thing that is difficult for me is when I walk too much because I have flat feet so sometimes my feet really hurt or the walk gives me cramps on the sole of the foot. During the year depends on the weather because something is very cold or very sunny, so I have to find the perfect time of the day to go outside for a walk. Now I like to do it with my dog because we both release energy and de-stress. I did it last week one day ...
