I don`t know if I want do changes in the curriculum, because even though I think that some thing are bad or needed changes, I hope and believe in that the department know what thing and what knowledge want give us. I suppose. Also I don`t have much experience or expecative about the  universities of dance in Chile,because I don`t have a speech or bigs ideas about it. Although I would change one things that I consider very important and is that some subject should be before in our development like in the beginning of the carrer, somethings like the techniques more difficult.

I think that the dance shouldn`t be taught in the university, and isn`t only because I not agree with the current condition of the institutionalism . Is more than that. Is because I dont know where is the place of  the art in this system. And I DONT KNOW WHERE I can find or build the best place or the best way to practice dance.

I think that this is a cultural debate. But about the building where I study I hate it very much. Is totally fragmented and have a construction that dont promote the comunity sense, because you are too isolated if you  go and have a class could be that you never talk with anymore that your own classmates. Is horrible!. You never can meet new people or  know about the problems of others carrers. You dont feel like in a university. 

And the internet service is bad. The library is not like a good library, the casino either. You dont have enougth rooms or hall to study or practice something, We dont have yard, the lake of green areas is a huge problem.
Really this faculty is not appropiated to almost nothing.
And the majority of the teachers are good. They have experience in the pedagogy and give me many things very useful for me life. 
I am not prepared to think more about my carrer. I trought a crisis apparently.

Birds of Chile:

I dont have a favourite bird , because I dont know many bird. But I want write about the faisanes.
These are natives birds of Asia. And someones has been feral in the south of Chile and nowadays exist in natural way ("free") from the fourth region until the austral road.

This bird can`t fly. But are very beautifull for me. And when I was a little girl and I visited the zoo (Buin Zoo) this kind of bird was my favourite: because their amazing colours and they didn`t was as popular as the famous peacock. I like the things or beings, not so popular.

I know the traditional swallow, and in the place more splendid that I think possible know her. This nice event was in Chaitén.


Her figure and her flight are very charasteristic. Many people can differentiate this birds, and this is a kind of bird diurno and migratory. Therefore you can see this birds in different places and ages of the year.

I remember a book about : " the happy prince" of Oscar Wilde, and his was my favourite story when I was child. And in the develop of the history, appear a swallow, and the bird is like an angel for the main protagonist, and represent the hope and the goodness.

By this memories I always think in this bird, as if its was messengers, and I feel good think when I see them.


And finally I can write about my experience with this beautifull bird, called: chucao. This bird are native of the south of Chile. And when I travel to the austral road, I slept out of the national park: Queulat, and one of the mornings I ran into a group of tiny chucaos. And for me, take a breakfast next to their are very lovely experience. I never forget it. This bird remember me all my significant trip.

The place where I would like to live is definitely not Santiago, Because I hate the smog and all kinds of pollution, the light pollution, the excessive concrete, lack of green areas, noise pollution,etc. Maybe I can live in a small city or town close to some mountains or beaches, to go for a walk and breathe clean air. Also, I can`t resist the fact that everything seems to be far away, you always lost too much time when you go to any place, for me Santiago is too many humans put in a not big enough space, and one city without any urban planning.


 The most probably place where I could live is in the south of Chile, because I know some places that I love it and where I think that I can buy or have a land occupation, and found a job to live, teaching dance or something similar. I think that exist many places where the dance must be put in the lives of citizen, to connect bodies with minds and to entertain children, young people, adults and old age. And also I believe in the decentralization of the dance from Santiago in Chile.

I think that in the first moment I would live with friends, or a couple. And after a while, I want have my own home, but maybe sharing  a land with many people to create or build a community. It has always been a dream to me, have a community where reigned : the sense of share. (trueque like a economic system), the mentality sustainable (with dry bathrooms, solar panels, organic garden, composting, eco bricks, etc.) And space to a structure of circus, floor to move outdoor, differents types of games, and hammocks in everywhere.

Movies or series

I like watching series and movies, I always search some new proyect to watch, I know some short series or animes that I recommend because those are very good works and by their short duration is easy to see until the end, for example: Mr. robot, Mushishi, Berserk and Death Note, and If you like the animes more long I must recomend my favorites because this animes are explendid , you can have a lot of fun and learn many thing about the history of the caracters and their develop to resolve and deal with the conflict of the weft. This are: Hunter x hunter, Full metal alchemist and Evangelion.

On the other hand, I love watch films to!, I think that trougth audiovisual media you can show diferent way of see the world from an artistic look (esthetical perspective) where you put your creative idea with many disciplines working together ( photografy, theatre, music, proyect management, film equipment, etc.) My favorite animated film are: all movies of Miyazaky , tekkonkinkrret and ghost in the shell. And of the typical films: Matrix (sciencie fiction), movies of tarantino, lars von trier (dogma 95) , Natural born killer (action). I also like movies more dramatics or romantics: Pride and prejudice (romantic) or Amores perros  , about the chilean movies my favorite are: Machuca and El botón de Nácar. 

Also I see sometimes documantarys , I recommend the salt of the earth and I love the work of wim Van de keybus who do movies with/about dance (blush). I enjoy when I know a good movie to comment, and if is not very good, I criticize all of them but finding arguments to say an explanation of why I didn`t like.

Summer Holidays

I would like travel abroad, maybe Bolvia or Perú. Many friends know those countrys and they tell me that some places are very attractives, and you can go with little money and have a nice time, knowning people and roaming the country.

But, on the other hand I would visit a family that live in the Bolson in the south of Argentina. They are old friends that I meet them three years ago (traveling with my best friend). They work hosting tourist because have a camping in the yard of their house.(place where we camping of course)

And in my mind exist some ideas about what I want do. I need take a long rest, and for that I want go to the nature and desconnect me, also I want highlight (to my nervous system) that I have time so I would see a lot of series, movies and documentary. I think that the famous `game of trones`could be a possibility. While all this activities I can do them on Santiago ( cajon del maipo and my bedroom) but I always go out of Santiago to breathe. (other activity very important to do in the holidays)

Also, I would like to visit Coronel and Lota. Nearby towns to Concepcion ( eighth region of Chile). Are places where I spent most of my holydays as a child, because my family are from those town. Between Coronel and Lota exist a beach called white beach, but by the pollution of the fishing companies now is just a name (the sand is brown with black mainly). I have a lot of memories of adventures and sunny afternoon playing with my sister in the cold sea.

And I prefer eat delicius fresh fruit to avoid the heat, and make refreshings juices!

My postgraduate course considered:

would some course of Japanese, because I think that in Japan I could know about my favorite film director ( Miyazaky the great ) and learn speak other lenguage is always very useful to communicated with different people to exchange ideas and maybe (if I do some film of animation) take a course with an expert to learn about the japanese culture of animation.

I think that the best place to take a course of japanese lenguage is of course in the abroad (Japan) but more reallisticaly I hope take some a similar course here in Santiago.

I would like study on a institute to have certification and used to my curriculum vitae. Also, I would like learn something more related with my current career that might be a seminary of contact dance. And for this practice there is not one Academy or Institution to learn and know about it. Because this practice was an experimental dance that born in USA in the years seventy, and now exist trainees of Steve Paxton (the founder), they will be like a follower and they made their own ways or lines of research.

I know that in USA I can study more close to the root of this practice but I think that in Latinoamerica exist a lot of places and dancers of CI too. And I love the cultural greatness of this part of the world and I prefer recover and nurture me of the bodys and movements from Brazil, Perú, Argentina, etc.

The best holidays:

My favourite memory is in the last summer (2016) in january, I travel to the national park: Torres del Paine for ten days with my best friend.

We started our travel taking an aeroplane from Santiago to Punta Arenas, When we arrived took a bus to Puerto Natales, and then we took another bus to enter of the National Park. The first day we stayed at `Base Torres` camp and we walked four hours until we get to see the natural monument Torres del Paine.

The next day we continuous are trekking by the Paine Grande circuit. In this trekking we passed by five camps, to get to each one of them we had walk arround five or seven hours.

This experince was very difficult for me but I also learnd how to continued walking despite the pain (pain in my foot or in my back). It was really hard because we had to carry with all our food and equipment (tent, spleeping bags, clothes ,etc.)

One of my favourites places was the Grey glacier because it was shocking know it. For me, the ice is like a meringue put in the earth, so delicius!

When we arrive to this place we had to walk to the top of the hill (the hill most high of the park) and we could see the amazing view. And it means to me a reconnection with the nature and all it wisdom and greatness.



This was my best holidays because I could know a lot of beautifull places and some people how know about the trekking and the nature, also I enjoyed the lovely company of my best friend and now we have memories of our travel and we can remember our travel togethe. And when we will be old could remember this wonderfull holidays.
