The most embarrassing thing i'm willing to admit.

I can remember when I was little sometimes used mispronounced words and adults laughed because I ended saying nonsense phrases, however, I think my most embarrassing moment was, undoubtedly, a moment that I lived when I was studying at school. It was a catholic school where they tried to teach us to help others, so once a year they took us either to a kindergarten or to a nursing home to create a day of entertaiment for those who attended or lived in those places.

There was a time when we went to a nursing home and decided to do some musical numbers. A group of colleagues would play "Dust in the wind" from Kansas and they asked me to play the violin part, I don't remember why but we couldn't get together to rehearse so it was decided that I would not play with them and a partner would play that melody on guitar, the problem was that I had a mental lapse and forgot it when we were there, it could be not so terrible that we played played the same melody, if it weren't because they decided to change the key of the song without my knowing, so what sounded was a disaster.

My best vacation

 

The truth is that in my family for quite some time we have not been in the habit of going on vacation, my travels are usually related to orchestral tours with the OJP (Pudahuel youth orchestra), with FOJI (Foundation of youth and children's orchestras of Chile) or with some other orchestra in wich I participated; also in recent years I have also traveled to Frutillar for CMMC (International Chamber Music Master Course)

 It is for this reason that it is not difficult to know that for me the best vacation I have had so far was in February 2019, when my mother, my sister, my nephews and I went to stay at my grandmother's house in Cartagena.The plan was to stay at my grandmother's house for the week we went and every day we would either go for a walk and stroll around or we would leave early in the car to see other places, we traveled along the central coast from San Antonio to Viña del Mar.

 The place we liked the most was Isla Negra mainly because it was where my nephews spent the best time and it was very easy to take care of them since the place was not that big, I also remember that the last day before returning we ate  in Viña del Mar and "pastel de choclo" that I ate was delicius.

A country I would like to visit.

           

 

 

Despite the problems we face living in a country like Chile with obvious social inequality, I am not very attracted to the idea of living in another place, mainly because my whole family lives here and I like the idea of having them close to me, however, I would like to study abroad at some point, since as we all know the opportunities for study and work in our field are very few due to the little importance given to the arts at the country level, although I have not yet thought of a specific country tu study.

I remember the first time I saw "Under the Tuscan sun", beyond the history of the film what I really loved was the landscape and the people, I ask myself if the people were really how the film showed. Since that tme, more than ten years ago I have wanted to know Italy, know the landscape and the culture they have, be able to travel quietly as tourism to different places, not to mention that italian is one of my favorites languages so I would love learn it at some point.
