Hi everyone! Listening to music has always been one of my favorite hobbies, as a child I always danced and listened to music, especially I liked classical music, but as I grew up, I began to define my style of music, for example, pop music, r & b, alternative rock, even German music. Therefore I have found it a little difficult to choose a favorite album, since I love each one depending on the occasion. But if I have to choose one, my favorite album would be "Parachutes", which corresponds to the English band Coldplay. This album was published in the year 2000 and I remember that my best friend showed it to me before leaving the country, we both liked this album, so every time we saw each other we listened to it together. This album is a mixture of alternative rock and britpop, so for me it's ideal to listen to it when I have to study or read, because I manage to concentrate, although at the same time it's inevitable not to remember my friend.

Hi everyone! As I said in my previous blog, I would like to work in an area related to photography, to complement this idea my study plan is to do a postgraduate degree in landscape and green infrastructure. The years that I have been studying this career, which is architecture, I have gone through various courses and one of the topics that I liked the most is the approach to landscape and territory. I find interesting the variety of existing vegetation and how it can be mixed with architecture, not only as decoration but also in a functional way for every part the building, people and their surroundings.

In my opinion, it is im...

Hi everyone! Currently, as an architecture student my interests are focus on the area of photography. Today we live in a world engrossed with technology and everything that relates to it, so this type of work has been increasingly in demand. Architectural photography consists mainly on capturing and describing the spaces that surround us. At the urban level, photography can describe a city or the relationship of a building or development with its surroundings. It´s also used in interior design, showing the relationship between furniture, color, texture, rhythm and lighting with the space proposed by the architect or designer. Tries to visualize the space contained between walls, find the substance of the void and its relation to what delimits it. In the case of a building, try to place it in the context of a city, how it dialogues with the environment, if it is mimicked, understood or noted. It is within my project to dedicate myself to this branch of Architecture,...

Hi everyone:  Well I have quite common hobbies, such as reading a book, listening to music, going out with my friends, doing sports from time to time, among others. But when I entered the university I was forced to practice one for my physical and mental good, this is meditation. The career I study involves taking a lot of your time without being able to have some free time, which caused me a lot of stress. For this reason I was recommended this exercise that for me has already become a hobby.  One of the most important benefits of meditation is that it helps you to reduce stress levels and get rid of all kinds of worries. With the calm state that meditation gives you, you can learn, think and plan things much more effectively. Meditation has helped me to have total control over myself and to be aware of my distractions by providing me with greater awareness and creativity. I must admit that at first I didn't believe that this could have an effect on me, but...

Hi everyone! The Coldplay band has long been my favorite band, so when I found out they were coming to Chile in 2016; I didn't hesitate for a second to buy the ticket. Also that it would be the first concert I would go to, therebefore I was very excited. My best friend was also a fan of the band so we went together. We were very nervous and best of all, we were in the front row. The concert started at 9:00 pm and we were 60,000 people in the place, I remember it was very cold, but that happened in the background when the gray tones of the sky were dyed like rainbows. It was an inexplicable experience, the assembly, the lighting, the sound, everything was perfect. One of the most shocking things was when they gave us a luminous bracelet managed by software that changed their tones to the rhythm of the songs. Each song they played was a rise and fall of emotions and with my friend we sang with all my lungs. Being in the front row I could see the band very close and tha...
