Future Studies

Hey there! Well, this is the final blog and I hope you don't get bored reading it. First of all, would like to study the Political Science Master at INAP because it is just an extra year of studies that I know that I will be doing it with my friends (Benja I'm talking to you). The topic that I like the most is Public Politics because I think we, as citizens, have the right to participe in the creation of laws through a popular initiative of law. I mean, come on, we can't allow that the elite make the laws for their own benefit! I really would like face-to-face classes, but I can't deny that some part of myself likes the zoom stuff just to be at home. At the same time I would love to study abroad! but if that happens, I'm not going to study anything related with politics, I'm going to study something useful for my future cannabis business (If you remember -or not- I love cannabis), so I would study at the Oaksterdam University in the US. Finally, I can't see myself studying the rest of my life, I just want to finish my career and to live, to travel! I want to do other things besides studying, so if you have any ideas or recommendations let me know! you can join me aswell! why not? That's it! and I hope we can meet soon. Best regards people!

My Future Job, a Weed Dispensary

I imagine my future job as an owner of a cannabis dispensary, working with my two step brothers and anyone who wants to learn about the cannabis industry. To have a dispensary, on the first place we must have a field, at least one hectare, so if we analize that side, it will be outdoors. But there are different ways to grow weed, and to have an outdoor cannabis cultivation you must wait till September for the weather. Otherwise, you have to grow your plants indoor in order to modificate the humidity, temperature, lights and air. Here you can see the the outdoor and indoor cultivation

I would like to travel with my brothers to the US to learn more about the cannabis industry, visiting the big companies in California and Colorado. We are not that worried about the salary, because this business will always have customers: Chile is the 3rd country with the highest consuption of cannabis in the world, and even if the self-cultivation is legal, there are plenty of people that are kind of lazy or simply don't like doing it.

I'm also thinking of studying in the US, at the Oaksterdam University, the first Cannabis University in the world and founded in 2007 to provide students with the highest quality for the cannabis industry. I want to learn everything I can, and to specialize myself in cannabis extracts.

My favorite Band

Hey there! I hope you're doing great this semester. Today I'm going to write about my favorite band, Beirut. Beirut is an American ''band'' and Zach C. is his singer when he's not playing the trumpet. This is really not a stable band, it is just Zach paying to random musicians to play some songs with him when he wants to do music. His music combines some touches of indie, rock, folk and circus styles, and also uses many different instruments - sometimes they are not even instruments, just random things that can make some noice - that can really provide a beautiful song.

Despite this music almost all the time is kind of sad, I believe it has its magic. My favorite song of all is ''In the Mausoleum'' when you can hear like ten different instruments and it still sounds beautiful (they even play ''drums'' on a watermelon). In this song, the sound of the violin is my favorite.

Another of my favorites is ''Postcards from Italy'', and I really love the video because he shows his holidays with his family (in a very low quality by the way) and how they enjoyed those moments, without faking a thing, having so much fun. I admire this lyrics and I want this song to be played at my funeral.

Finally, I really love to listen ''Beirut Cheap Magic Inside'' (2011). I don't think that is cheap magic, on the contrary, if you can appreciate it I hope you found very expensive magic. I would love you to hear one of Beirut's songs, but try to avoid it for a bit if you are sad right now. If you are not, you will be after you hear one (just joking, or maybe not). Let me know if you hate it or love it! this is the link of ''Cheap Magic Inside''. I really hope you can enjoy it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6TCjgeD8Us

My chosen family

Well fellas, today I’m going to write about my best friends from my city town because they’re awesome. We first met when we were on 3rd grade of high school in Temuco. I was at the same class with 3 of them, David, Alfred and Uzi, because we chose the humanist program. One day with them I saw some dude screaming “I’m chocman-man” with a box of chocmans on his head and a piece of something pretending to be a sword. He was my friend’s friend, Giovanni, and that day he became my friend too, he was the italian one of the group. Our friendship is the best thing of my life. On our first year out of high school I decided to study law in Temuco, David and Alfred wanted to study psychology in Temuco as well, Uzi wanted to study agronomy also in Temuco, and Giovanni wanted to study mechanical engineering in Valparaíso. However, Alfred wasn’t able to study psychology, and Uzi left his studies on his first day to get a fly to Middle East, we haven’t seen Uzi since 2018. I also left my law studies in the first semester. Only David and Giovanni were able to follow what they wanted to study. Next year I started to study political science in Santiago, and Alfred started studying social sciences. Giovanni didn’t like his university, so now he’s studying in Santiago too. I love spending time with them because we laugh the entire time, and also because we are a family. They are my support, sometimes advisors, sometimes my kids, and I really miss hanging out with them because the social distancing. I hope this pandemic ends soon to see them again.

Here we are, Gio, Alfred and me :)

Carretera Austral 2019

I'm from Temuco, and I went to Aysen on February 2019 for two weeks. I traveled with my family - mom and dad - by car, and on the first day we arrived to Argentina. We stayed in San Martin de los Andes and had dinner in front of the Lacar Lake. The next day we traveled to Bariloche to lunch, later we drove to El Bolson - a very tiny and hippie city -, we slept there and the day after we traveled to Chile.

In Chile, we camped on Futaleufu, a beautiful town surrounded by forest and a river. The next day we arrived to Puyuhuapi, and I think that place is smaller than a tiny town. We slept there 2 days in a cabain in front of the sea. I met 3 Palestinians and we drank mate on the pier. Next day, we went trekking in Queulat National Park to see the Ventisquero Colgante, a waterfall on a glacier. I loved to see so many Chucaos, a beautiful jumping bird.

After that, we went to Coyhaique, the largest city in Aysen, and we didn't like it because there was too many people and traffic, so we drove to Puerto Rio Tranquilo. The road was horrible, I mean, there was no road, just a dirt road. So we drove like for 5 hours from Coyhaique to Puerto Rio Tranquilo, but it was worth it. We camped again, and the next day we sailed to see the Marble Chapels, a beautiful landscape on General Carrera Lake, a lake that Chile shares with Argentina. In Puerto Rio Tranquilo I met an Argentinian who traveled with his dog, and we drank mate, and later I met some backpackers from Santiago and we had a small party.

The next day we went to Coyhaique again just to lunch and we drove to Puerto Aysen, another beautiful city, and we slept there. I loved Puerto Aysen! it was so quiet and full of trees that I would love to go again.

The next day we went to Chaiten and we bake some bread because there was no supermarket or any place to buy it. We stayed there one night and in the morning after we had to sail to Puerto Montt, our next and almost final destiny. We sailed for 8 or 9 hours and it was a beautiful view! but we hate Puerto Montt because its ugliness and also because is too boring. We ate some completos, that was the best part of Puerto Montt.

Finally, we drove to Temuco. I think that travel was probably my best holidays because I had fun with my family, we had never been there before and the landscapes were amazing. I loved the Chucaos and camping, and I love cold places especially in summer. I would love to go there again, but by plane because driving was exhausting.

A country I would like to visit

Hey everyone! I would really like to go to United States, specifically to Colorado with my two step brothers because that's our dream. I know that in USA people sometimes is scary, so I want to be as far as possible from guns, racist people and Trump voters. Pretty similar by the way (I think). I'm not gonna lie and as my classmates can tell, me and my brothers work in a Growshop and we are weed enthusiasts trying to be activists. We would love to go to Colorado to visit Weed Farms and learn from the biggest weed industry, and of course try everything we can. Also, as mushrooms are legal in Colorado, we would like to camp in the mountains and try some with that wonderful view. Colorado seems fun, altough is damn cold in winter, is the most beautiful thing for people like me and my brothers, and if you love wood things and flammel shirts and people with beautiful dogs, you would love it too. Finally, after I finish to study in Chile, I would love to go a year or so to live with a friend who lives in Arizona. The work of my dreams is, as I wrote before, work (and live) in a weed farm and dedicate my life to it. I want to learn everything as possible from the Colorado experience to implement that in my own weed farm in Chile, and also be able to provide my dads their medicine: this year my father was diagnosed a pituitary tumor and my mom was diagnosed osteoarthritis. I think weed industry has big potential, not only to smoke it but use it like a medicine too, and if you think in the multiple uses that herb have, we are also fighting climate change and unemployment making new jobs ind different areas using herb as bio-fuel, clothes, construction and food. So, if you read it all and you like my idea, you can also come with us to live the Colorado experience, you are very welcome only if you pay for your stuff. And if you dislike my post, I really don't mind, just let me know your opinion in the comments.
