I like this picture!

I chose this photo because it brings back great memories of this trip i made to Ecuador in 2014, I was with two cousins and my exboyfriend. It was my first backpacking trip from Peru to Ecuador, i have many stories to tell. A hole adventure!

This photo was taken in the Amazon jungle of Ecuador, in a town called Baños de Agua Santa. Everything about this place was beautiful, vegetation, animals, weather, people, food, etc. It is a magical place which everyone should know.

Specifically,  I was look at the greatness and beauty of the Amazon River, I was with my cousin Barbara, who is very close to me, like a friend. This was a great moment so that was reflected in this photograph, that can remember everything you felt at that time, being in the jungle, travel with people I love very much.

Well, I hope you like the picture and I invite you to travel to Ecuador, because is a beautiful place, and remember to be careful in Guayaquil, because it is a city where theft is very common.

Good week!

Environment

In Chile we have no culture of recycling and less care with the environment. But I'll tell you what I do minimum in order to protect the planet.

I always worry about taking care of water, do not leave keys running and try to close them when one is leaking. Do not throw paper on the ground and to the extent that I throw in garbage recycling possible. I would love to have a composter to recycle organic waste food, but not live at home if that makes me a difficult situation. In my building there to recycle glass, I try to always leave the bottles in that container. The main thing I do is movilizarme bike, I help both environmental contamienacion, as ACOUSTICS, something that has so tired santiaguinos. I try not to use plastic bags, but still I can not get used to 100%.
I hope someday be recycling law, as there is a planet is filling up of islands created by plastic bags as it takes thousands of years to biodegrade.Also like to ride bikes all, for us to be happier, because there would be no pollution as I mentioned above and all would realize sport, that makes us feel good.

A movie that I like and and movie that I hate

One of the movies that I like is: "Girl, Interrupted" I saw a couple of days and I'm enjoyed it because it talks about how one is going crazy to the extent that the other calling you crazy and  see things that are not there are. The story of each character have their particular touch, but may be more common than we imagine. Characterization and film photography are aspects very well made. Main movie Cast: Winona Ryder, Angelina Jolie, Brittany Murphy, Clea DuVall and Elisabeth Moss. Finally, I recommend this good movie, the dramma grabs you. You can find it on Netflix.

 

I do not hate a movie that particularly, but I loaded the movies parodies, for example: The Twilight, American Pie, Pirates of the Caribbean, Narnia, among others. Is too boring, It not makes me  laugh, also the sense imitate a movie it so stupid, although the original also it is. Nor do I like those movies very false Chinas, when they fight, but  the fight never finish and nothing makes sense.

Well, we are in the next blog!

Habladurías del mundo

Today I have to mention the perfect song.

Well I is difficult to choose one because there are many in the world that could be.

The last song I heard and that is very good is "Habladurias del mundo"-Pescaso Rabioso: Spinette. He is a great Argentine artist died on February 8, 2012. Known for being great singer and composer of Argentine rock.

I think of this song because I listened many times this pastweek is one of my favorite disc. I remember the summer was when I first heard. Just as I was finishing the semester in the university they were difficult times but I learned a lot from them. And this week I heard when I was worked on my house, I feel calm a pleasant atmosphere.


I'll leave the link of the song to hear it.

Changó !

The day what I will never forget is When I arrive for the first time my dog to my house, his name is Changó (Changó is the name of one of the best known Orishas. It is the Orisha of thunder, lightning, justice, virility, dance and fire). Born one day February 12, 2010.This means that lived the earthquake of 27 F, but what he did not count on even realize what happened.

Photo of the first day at home

He was just two months old when I saw him running down the hall of my house. It was like a teddy , a tenderness, fit in the palm of my hand. His coat color was creamy and both very fluffy.

Well today Chango has 6 years of life, is an adult, is very smart and ignores most of the time hahaha Do not fight with other animals and used to give and receive love.  

The Chango today! sleeping hehehe

Is the best dog in the world!

I hope that the maximum stay time in this life, because it is my puppy regalon and I love him with all my heart <3

R.Mutt

       

Marcel Duchamp 

He was an artist, he was born in France but lived much of his success as an artist in the US. 

He is a pioneered worker on conceptual art (contemporary), saying that all that was displaced from its context and giving a new meaning could be art. His great scandal was when he was working with the "urinal". He bought an ordinary urinal, the volt and signed as R.Mutt, he rode on a plinth and presented in an art competition cutting edge. This work was called "The Fountain" (1917).

 This fact caused a stir because everyone questioned whether it could be art or not... Well, today is considered as art all the conceptual work behind.

The first book I read about his life interested me because I understand and clarify what he wants to produce with his works. The book is title ~Duchamp: Love and death, even ~. 

 

Duchamp worked all his artistic work around sexuality, played with the theme of duality between the feminine and maculine, but what is not, the mystery between public and private. His ironic way of working, laughed at the academy and the critics.

For me it's a great artist by the ability to give the art another perspective in an era where the vanguards were running product side of the world wars. Besides, moving the painting achievement and gave importance to the object / sculpture / installation, done that broke with tradition, giving way to the new art of the twentieth century.

A separate and very interesting fact is that Marcel wears costumes of women and he called himself "Rose Selavy"

U R U G U A Y

My best holiday was in 2013. Because it was the first time I paid me my vacation.

The chosen location was Uruguay, it is a great country. People are very nice and civilized, the places are beautiful, culture is affordable for the pocket, but the bad thing is that it was more expensive than Chile, like food, transportation, alcohol hahaha.

The places that were meet, Montevideo, Punta Ballena, Punta del Este, Piriapolis, La Barra and Maldonado. I spent 10 days with the best cousins, Barbara and Eduardo.

Piriapolis was my favorite places, is a silver that is located north of Punta del Este. The vegetation is very interesting, the sand is too soft and perfectly warm sea.

The second best was Montevideo, as two girls we met in Punta del Este made us a tour of the very entertaining and interesting city.

Punta del Este

I hope to return soon to this place and meet new secret corners.

A country I would like to visit

C o L o M B i A 

I would like to visit Colombia, because the last year I met a good friend, he's name is Johan. He is from Colombia, I met him in my last job and transformed in my fest friend in the place. 

When we talked about to visit other countries, he says: Milena the next summer you should travel to Colombia and we can go all the country by bus, because hitchhike in Colombia is very dangerous.

Well, this is the reason I want to travel to this place. Johan now lives in Colombia and very entertaining would see him again. I have also too eager to know their culture, people, food, it's beautiful scenery.

All my acquaintances who have traveled to Colombia tell me it's a beautiful place, its landscapes are magical, there is always something to do in the nature, both to see in the flora and fauna.

Finaly I hope raise money to go this summer and go with a friend.

I hope we can all travel around the world, it is always good to travel because it grows and learn.

Bye.

He is Johan: D
