                                  A photograph I like 


Well, maybe this isn´t the best picture of all times but is my favourite place in the world (until now). I took it in march, 2014 in Coñaripe, Region of the Araucanía. The picture is crooked, and isn´t a great quality but it shows the Calafquén Lake in the evening, almost night. I like this photo because its reminds me that trip that I did with a good friend to the south of Chile, I meet a lot of beautiful places, and that place in particular was special because is a small village with kind people, without big supermarkets, stores, even traffic lights.



 Around  it, there are many woods, volcanoes and natural hot springs. It is a paradise, but in summer is full of tourist. When I took the picture, I was alone in the lake, all tourist were gone a few weeks ago so I enjoyed it a lot. I was able to talk with local people, go to the woods with them and help to collect blueberries. When I finish my career I want to go to live there a couple of years.

My Favourite music genre


My favourite music genre



I`m not sure about what is my favourite music genre, because I love the metal since I have memory, and this genre has a lot of subgenres, I like thrash metal, heavy metal, early metal, death metal, black metal, nu metal... (uf, a long list of styles jajaja) and rock, classic music, even opera.  But I think my favourite subgenre is the simphonic and gotic metal, because is a kind of mix of metal with opera and classic music. 
My favourite band is Theatre of Tragedy, a gotic metal band, I love what their letters talk about,  the contrast of the female and male voice in the songs , and the idioms mix they do with latin, german, and early modern english, although predominantly are in english. 
But I also love bands like Led zeppelin (was my inspiration to starting to play guitar), Faith no more, Oasis, Deep Purple, The Ramones and Queen. My favourite compositor is Claude Debussy.
Sometimes I think how would it be my life if I didn´t have music, and definitely it would be horrible. I can`t imagine a trip on the subway or the bus without headphones.



My favourite song of this band calls "And when he falleth", essencialy is about faith and the belief in God, includes a dialogue from The Masque of the Red Death (1964), a film based on a Edgar Alan Poe`s short story.
