Favourites movies p3

If I had to say what are my favorite types of movies, I would say that it is very difficult to answer. Because I love a lot of types of movies and maybe I've seen so many of them that I can't even remember one of them I like most. But, if there's a life or death question, I definitely would said that gangster's and science fiction's movies.

In first place, the gangster's movies have always been a fascination for me. Movies like The Goodfellas, The Godfather trilogy, Scarface, The Departed, Pulp Fiction, among others. In that films you can see the fight between two forces always in conflict, also some beautiful cars, fancy clothes, lots of guns, deaths, fights, pretty girls, etc. So, If you want to see one of them, you'll enjoy some good and fun stories of people living crazy lifes in the big cities, between guns and lots of money (not all that stories are related to that, but sometimes it's funny to me imagine myself how my life would be if I were born in a gangster family).

The science fiction is a gender that I also like so much. The different views about the future, the technology, and dystopias are my guilty pleasure. Guilty because in that movies you won't see a very positive thinking about the future, and they usually show that part of the society that we don't want to see. However, the directors find always a interesting way of meditate and debate about what we want about our life. You can see series like Black Mirror, or movies like Ghost in Shell, Akira, A Clockwork Orange, V for Vendetta, Metr贸polis, etc.

To finish, the movies of Dogme 95 Manifesto are also my favorites, because it was a filmmaking movement that choose their own rules to make those films, based on the traditional values of story, acting, and theme. Also excluding the use of elaborate special effects or technology.

馃槏 si si Colombiaaa, si si Caribe 馃槏 p2



This past summer I was lucky enough to travel for two months, with a backpack, a friend and all the energy of the world.

I worked very hard and finally I went with all the savings that I gathered for a whole year, to live an adventure. I dreamed of the day I could travel for months, forget everything and everyone, and transform myself into a pseudo nomad of such beautiful lands.

People usually believe that Colombia is only the Caribbean, but it is much more than that. The Andes mountain range opens and gives way to three mountain ranges, so imagine the amount of micro climates that are generated!

We were able, along with many other things, to know the history of Colombia from the perspective of its own inhabitants. If you know a Colombian, you will know that depending on the city they are all different! The complexity of its geography prevents people from traveling often between cities, so each place has its own essence, and all are very different from each other. It can be a single country, but with cultures very very different from each other.

 I had never met such nice people, that made me fall in love.




I learned that currently in Colombia there are hundreds of indigenous languages ​​that are in full use, that their indigenous people have territorial autonomy and that they are respected, that the violence exerted by drug trafficking was in some cases less than what the state power created provided them - supposedly - to fight it, that in Colombia you dance salsa, bachata, reggaet贸n, salsa choque, champeta, vallenato, ufffffff and many other styles! Pure local music! (just like here), that culture is lived in every corner, that in Medellin are more workers than anyone (there are coffe shops open at 4:30 in the morning).


Hammocks everywhere

It was the best trip so far because I disconnected everything, I learned to trust in people, to listen to my intuition, to cook bananas in many different ways,  to sleep in hammocks (for more information go to post 7). I met cities that were more than 450 years old, people of all colors, cities in which you seemed to be more in Africa than in America, I swam among coral reefs under the light of the moon and in the middle of fluorescent plankton.

Finally, I learned that life is one, and that the moment is now. That in the end, we are not so different, and that life can be much more kind, if one is with a willing heart.



Thank you for so much beautiful Colombia 馃挀馃挍馃挋馃槏

A country I would like to visit p1

Hi everyone!

I was 17 the first time I travelled by myself. That year I had the opportunity of traveling to south of Chile. After that journey, I decided that every end of the year I would do the impossible to travel somewhere unknow, with my backpack and my tent, to live an adventure.

This year I have planned to go to Brasil, but no to the big cities, those you can see in the soap opera or the movies, but the amazonian Brasil. My dream is see with my own eyes what's left of the green lungs of the planet, come into the wild nature and be part of it, feeling it, living it.


In my journeys I always try to forget about the cellphones, stress, smog, noise and cement, and meet again with our essence, visiting places that invite you to find yourself, to explore life, meet cultures, foods, lenguages, believes different of those we're familiarity. The Amazonia, in it's heart, harbor some communities that lives in harmony with nature, they know it and respect it. And despite of the gobernments and projects that try to take them out, they're still being part of it. Just like the rivers, birds, snakes, wild cats or insects that live there, the're all part of something bigger, we all are.
