Today I would like to wirte about travel. the other day i was talking with a friend about traveling and how much i like the idea of knowing new places and new experiences and that it was kind of my dream living just traveling, working in any place, save money, know the most i can in every place and after that, travel to some place new again. Until now, i know very well the south part of Chile, i need to know a lot yet. From south america, i know a part of bolivia, uruguay and the last summer i visited a little part of argentina and a beach (really close to uruguay) from brasil. I like to know the little parts and the unknown from every place but until now i haven't achieve well :( but i keep trying.

But all this idea of traveling for life, crushes with my idea of change the world, or at least, the country. And that is also a kind of a dream so i think i will try to equilibrate this two things like traveling and learning and to do something with the knowledge.

My favourite subject

My favourite subject is Rural Anthropology. This subject started with the history of the "hacienda" in Chile. This part is quite boring because is really slow. After that, we studied the agrary reform and this is the most interesting part because it explains how rural world works now. And here we see how different were the reforms depending on the president, how Alessandri started a really lazy reform that Frei made more radical and had a big impact. After this, with the president Allende, this reform was totally radicall and the rural workers take a lot of power.
This subjetc includes go to the fields, some rural place were years ago an hacienda existed there, and interview people to rebuild the history of the agrary reform.
I like this subject because first the teacher is great. He explains the subject he has been investigating for a lot of years. The things we study here are interesting because, after this class i never question this history before and the rural life is a lot more common that what we know.
So i invite all of you to learn a little bit more of the rural history :)
