Post 3: Your dream job

Hi! When I was in high school, I loved mathematics and by senior year I was convinced that engineering was my career. Finally, some time before taking the PSU, I discovered that I liked numbers, but they are not my passion as opposed to studies about societal phenomena. Currently, I don't have a dream job, because my career is very versatile and I know I have time to discover all areas of Social Work, but I have no doubt that my career is my dream profession. 
So, I am going to tell you my three short-term dream job options. 
First, the government program "Servicio País" (Service to the Country). This program works all over Chile and has different projects.
Secondly, childhood. In my opinion, childhood is very important, especially in adult-centric and unequal societies like the Chilean one. For this reason, I would like to work in school or in a children's center.
Finally, the territory line. Social injustice is so represented in the territories that as a future social worker I think we have a lot to do.
In conclusion, I do not know many things, but I dream of knowing Social Work and its many areas.

Post 2: The best holidays ever.

 I have had vacations with my family and I love these vacations, but this year I have had my favorite vacation so far. My best friends and I have a very long friendship, so, after saving money for a year and a VERY difficult organization, we traveled to San Pedro de Atacama in January 2022 for a week and it was a lot of fun.

The first day with the Astronomical tour I saw the moon and stars in the middle of the Atacama desert. In my city seeing the stars is easier than in Santiago, but in the Atacama desert I really saw a lot of stars.

We did many other activities, but one of the most important was Geyseres del Tatio. The excursions started at a quarter to five in the morning, the temperature was from -10° celsius to 0° celsius and we were at an altitude of 4200 meters above sea level, but I have not seen more beautiful landscapes than the ones I saw there.

Post 1: A country you´d like to visit.

Since I was a little girl, I preferred snow to the beach.  I love cold days and winter, because I love warm clothes, hot tea and coffee, cazuela at lunch, the color of the sky and clean air.
So I would like to travel to a very cold country. For this reason, Iceland is my first choice, but Iceland is my dream for three other important reasons.
First, the interest in the country didn't start because of the cold weather, but because of my favorite Netflix series Sense8. In this series, Riley (one of the main characters) visits her home country of Iceland and travels through beautiful landscapes full of misty and green mountains.
Secondly, my older sister also loves this country and we have talked about visiting it together in the future, even fantasizing about living there together. 
Finally, thanks to my career, I have discovered that Iceland is one of the most advanced countries in terms of women's rights. And I admire that very much.
