SUMMER HOLIDAYS

Hi there! Today on my blog I'll write about my nest summer holidays. This summers I'll travel with my best friend from university, we're planning to go to Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. The plan by the time is a travel of one month and the idea is that we can stay on a hostel where you can work part time, a few hours per day and they give to you breakfast and a bed where you can stay. So traveling this way you don't spend a lot of money, just on the airplane tickets, the food and the party. Out idea is to stay on rio three weeks and the fourth week take a little travel near to Rio to know another cool places. I haven't search to places that I want to visit yet because I want to have the airplane tickets first and concentrate on the university this month but I know that on january I'll be totally focus on this travel and trying to make plans about places to go and also gathering more money. I know that my travel with my BFF will be epic and that we'll have a l...

Changes to my study program

Hi there! Today I'll write about some changes that I could made to my study program. First of all, I'm studying Antropology specialising in Social studies. By the beginning of the carrer you have to do two years of  basic course where you have to study topics of the three specialities: Social Anthropology, Bioanthropology and Archaeology and later you have to do two years of the speciality that you choose. I really like this order of the study program because you can learn about another topics that have direct realation with the carrer that you will choose, also you can learn about interdisciplinary work and studies that, I think, will be useful when I go out of the carrer and I have to work with people of another disciplines. Also, I know the basic knowledge about archeaology and bioanthropology so I can realeated my future work with that, but we have some courses that are so basic, for example "biology" that I really think aren't necessary for the rest of the ...

Reggaeton

Hi there! Today I'll write this free post about reggaeton. First of all I've to say that I love latin music and reggaeton it' the better kind of it to me. I remember when I was little I used to start listen reggaeton at the age of 9 because on the radio of the school bus used to play the biggers first songs of this kind of music, songs like "La gasolina" by Daddy Yankke for example. Later, the urban tribes take relevance on the country and when I start my teen years I want so bad to be part of "Los pokemones" but I was too little to be part of that group of people because I was just 13 years old. But I start doing myself some crazy hairstyles and makeup that I'm not proud because I really look so bad on that style, not just me, all the people look bad on that style. On those days I have the oportunity to go to a lot of reggaeton concerts for free like Arcangel, Don omar (twio times), Rakin & Ken-Y,  just for example.  So, since I was little ...

Post Graduate studies

Hi there! Today I'll write about post graduate studies after my actual carrer, anthropology. First of all, I don't feel really motivate for take some post graduate studies but maybe in the futere I decide to take some of these kind of studies. I don't feel very attached to the idea of take a master because I don't really think that the academic world is where I want to develop myself, because the academic work doesn't have a real impact on peoples lifes. But I don't deny to anything because I also like studying and learn about anthropology and the idea is even better if it's on another country that I would like to visit. If I have to choose I'll choose to study on Mexico maybe, to do some master about latin american cultures, aesthetics, or something like that, so I wouldn't like to go to europe or united states because I want to learn more about our own culture. Also, I've been thinking about stuying archeology because of the money, maybe on th...

My future job

Hi there! Today I'll write about my future job. First of all I'm studying anthropology, I would like to job on something related with that. The idea about my career is that when you go out you should do a lot of outdoor work as ethnography, so that's not something like on an office with normal full time work. I'll love to do that kind of work, knowing and working with people far of the city, interacting with differents perspectives about the world, so I really would like to travel on my future job. But also I would like to work on the city too, something like street ethnografy, trying to undestand our own form of culture. About that I'm interest on sexuality topics, I'm doing my final proyect on the university about the increase of HIV in Chile, just for example. But I really think that I can't have a full time work, so if I end up working on a fundation about sexual education or something like that here in Santiago, it would be for a few months and just be...

Why I choose anthropology

Imagen
Hi there! Today I will write about my choose of anthropology as my university career. On highschool I was clear that I want to study something realeated to humanities topics, so I think about the typical carrers realated to that topic like beging layer, a history teacher, the studies about literature, but I didn't feel convenced about any of that options. When I go out of school I choose to study History pedagody on University of Santiago, I only last a semestrer on that carrer because I didn't really want to be a teacher on school and follow the rules of the system of education and also I consider the fact about teaching is a bad work in Chile because of the pay and the time you invest on that. That's why I go out of the carrer and at that time I was sure to study Anthropology because I like it a little bit on school but I wasn't sure about what it is, but on the university I had a teacher that was an anthropologist so when I have to choose by second time I was sure...
