GEORGIA - SAVANNAH


Reasons for visiting


    The first time I heard about Savannah - Georgia, it was because my best friend, Ava, went to live there. We were investigating its location, and its distance from Chile, which is 7,595 km in a linear way. We also investigated the climate of the area. The summers are very hot, the winters are short and cold, and it is wet and partly cloudy all year. As Savannah is on the Georgia coast, it has a very varied flora and fauna: birds, turtles, fish, alligator, and other species that live in the marine forests and beaches. Plants ranging from dried sea oats to waxy motherwort, broad red cedars, and live oaks that also habit these lands. 


    Since she left, we constantly talk, and she tells me about her adventures; from stories with squirrels, stories about her university - which she gave me a tour of and I was fascinated with the architecture of the place - to stories about how the city works because she knows that I love urbanism. Unfortunately, we haven't seen each other since 2019 and we couldn't say goodbye because of the social crisis that Chile experienced in October of the same year. We miss each other a lot, so my main motivation to go to Savannah is to visit her.




The first place that i want to visit








There is also a restaurant that I have always wanted to try that is called "The Sentient Bean" which is located in within the district among many other places that I want to see when I get there. This restaurant is known for its vegan menu and constant support to local farmers and community in Savannah. Most college students that live in the area love eating there thanks to the young atmosphere and the nice people that work there.

My vacations in Arequipa

  My vacations in Arequipa One of my most significant vacations was my trip to Arequipa in 2015. This city is located in Peru. It is known as the “White City'', because it has an architecture of adobe houses, painted white, with narrow streets with cobblestones .  It was in this city that I realized that, I wanted to study architecture, I fell in love with history, culture, architectural elements, and with how the city was configured, so considering that I am a person who travels constantly, this is one of the my favorite places, because this city took me to study architecture and it has been a great success in my life.  I went to a “La laneria”, which is where llama and alpaca wool is produced, stored, prepared and used to create different fabrics with different techniques, mainly the use of the “andean loom”. Also in the same place they raise and care for llamas and alpacas, they have an open space where they live freely.  I also went to the "Cañon del Condor"

Blog 3 - The Role of Technology in my Profession and Life      Technology is all that element created by the human being, therefore, from the wheel to a mobile phone are technological elements and are important for the development of society, globalization and creation of advances to improve the quality of life.  However, today technology has a mainly commercial focus, where consumption is encouraged and secondly for research, advances in medicine, architecture, engineering, ecology, etc. Added to this there is also a great dependence on technological devices that is promoted by social networks, now there is a virtual world that is not in balance with the physical world. More and more people forget how to socialize with others.                                        Personally, I believe that technology is not bad, on the contrary, it is necessary, however it is the cultural and social approach that must change and thus cancel the dependence we have on it.  In architecture,
