Post 8: Winter Holidays

Winter holidays is coming soon! I think that I've been waiting for holidays since about one month ago. Sometimes, the university dynamic is tiring, because you must do and achieve a lot of responsibilities in short-term. Anyway, I like my career and the university life, but I think that we need to rest.

First, in my winter holidays I want to go to the South of Chile. Maybe I’m going to travel to Puerto Varas and Valdivia, because I love these cities. In Valdivia, I want to visit Fog Fort, the Archeological Museum of the Universidad Austral de Chile, take a cold swim in Llanquihue Lake and then drink a hot cup of coffee. Finally, I will visit and have a trekking day on National Park Vicente Pérez Rosales. To read a good book while I'm enjoying in these wonderful landscapes.

At the same time, I want to visit my friends in these cities. To have a good time with them telling stories, talking about several issues, drinking beer and cooking “chorrillana” (French fries with sausages, bell pepper and onion). Perhaps I will go with my girlfriend, Daniela, if she doesn’t work in July.

I’m not planning to work in winter, because I want to have a relax time with my friends, but at the end of July, probably I’m going to give a lecture in a biblical and theological school, so I need to prepare the study material and the expositions about that: I must prepare the lectures, contents, powerpoint presentations and learn with others.
