RIDE OR DIE!




 Hello everybody!


This time I'll tell you about my adventures in the snow. As I 've already told you, I'm a sports fan and this time I 'll talk about one of my favorite sports,  the snowboarding.


I started being a rider 13 years ago when I was just a teenager. I remember in those moments how good the sensation of sliding on the snow felt, which made my desire to learn more and more. Like all beginners I learned through falls and blows, such as when I fell on my back and when trying to support myself I fractured my wrist. In conclusion falls are part of the learning process, even after learning it is important to know how to fall.


Today I am a more experienced rider, I have better control of my body and balance as well as the risks that exist when doing these sports. I am from Santiago and I mostly go to the ski centers in my city such as EL COLORADO or my favorite VALLE NEVADO, which for me are the best slopes in the country. I have traveled different places in the south of Chile in search of snow powder, such as CORRALCO and NEVADOS DE CHILLÁN, in these the mountain views are spectacular, the forests of native trees are appreciated, mixing white and green colors that produce a satisfying calm and purity, without a doubt one of the sensations that make me love this sport.



Another form of skiing that I adore is the backcountry, which is mainly going up the mountains through a trek and looking for the best mountain for the descent on the board. Without a doubt it is the most dangerous way to snowboard, you have to go with high mountain implements such as GPS and ARVA and always accompanied by another person. It is dangerous, but at the same time it is adrenaline rush to slide over virgin mountains, where you can see the most beautiful landscapes.


We are now starting the winter season and I hope the weather will be with us this year. Because of the drought we have not had good seasons but I have faith that this climate problem will be solved and for that we must contribute with it.


Greetings to all!

OSCAR NIEMEYER...The master of the curve.

There are many architects, but for me very few are those who have managed to leave their mark around the world and not only in the field of architecture, but also in society and politics, the Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer is one of those few. Oscar Ribeiro de Almeida Niemeyer Soares Filho, popularly known as "Oscar Niemeyer", was a Brazilian architect who modernized the architecture of his country and left both a national and international legacy. He was born on December 15, 1907 in Rio de Janeiro and died on December 5, 2012 at the age of 104. Niemeyer was a follower and promoter of the ideas and work of Le Corbusier, served as an inspiration for him, while Corbusier was inspired by the works of Niemeyer in his later works, so they had a professional relationship in which one he helped himself to the other. In the beginning he worked in the office of Lúcio Costa, a world famous Brazilian architect, although he was going through monetary problems, he came to work for fre...

My Favourite Piece of Technology

 Hi!, To begin I’ ll tell you that I’ ll talk about my favorite piece of technology. This is the drone. I have been a photography lover for many years and this was born when I began to visit different places and during these trips taking a camera with me was indispensable. We all know the usefulness of photography, it is very versatile, since you can capture moments, landscapes, works, faces,body, art, etc. After a while of having my professional camera and giving it proper use, I got a drone to expand my knowledge on the subject. It's a fantastic piece of technology! I can fly my drone just for fun reaching great distances and flying at 60 km/ h. It‘ s also an incredible work tool that can be used for topographic studies, to make recordings, and even broadcast live. I’ ve already had it for more than two years and I am thinking of changing it because it is very large and difficult to transport. I hope to find a good deal! This year I have not been able to use it much because o...
