The Best Field Trip EverThe Best Field Trip Ever

 

When do you went to the field trip? For which class it was? Where did you go? Why do you went there? What things did you learn there?

 

Viña del Mar Botanic Garden

In our first year as forest engineering students, we went to a field trip with our Biotics class to the beautiful city of Viña del Mar, also known as “Viña” or “Garden City”. We weren’t there for any reason, we were there because in Viña is located one of the most complete and amazing botanic gardens of all the country.

The Botanic Garden of Viña del Mar is home of a diverse number of plant species, for that reason we went there, to learn to recognize different kind of species and get to know new ones. Our assignment was simple, get a group of five random people, recognize different kind of plant taxon’s, and deliver this to the teacher. The beauty of the trip was in the new and fascinating plants that we studied and see, like for example the Toromiro (Sophora toromiro), a plant so rare that is extinct in nature, only preserved in places like this garden where there are set specific climatic conditions, in controlled environments, to emulate his native life conditions, in this case Isla de Pascua where this plant lived before extinction. This is only one example of lots of beautiful plants that are safeguarded in this botanic garden, where they can be preserved for posterity and can be studied in detail by scientist and enthusiasts.

    I remember that trip to the country. It was very beautiful and I learned a lot. I noticed more differences related to the forests that exist

Time travel to the future

  A FUTURE EXPLORING OTHER PLANETS Well, today I’m going to write about the future, specifically where I would like to be and go. It is known that our imagination about the future can go wild, especially with all the fiction in things like books, movies, or series, that in his majority agree that in like 500 or more years we should be able to travel to the stars, other systems and even get to know other sentient beings and wildlife in the galaxy. I would like to be there, in that time 500 years in the future, where I can explore new planets with different beings and environments, catch the sensation of discovery every time that I move through space, be in a group of explorers of unknown lands and planets, describing new wildlife unique to a recently discovered planet. This could be even better if I could live a prolonged life due to the new technology of the time, I even imagine that life expectancy of humanity will increase to new heights like 120 or more years of a good life.

Friends

  For me a friend is  someone who are in the good and bad moments of life. i value in a friend that are be a good person, positive, affective and respectful. I think that in the past I made friends easily, now it isn’t like that, maybe because it’s not very relevant for me anymore,  I suppose that it could be because I consider that I already have enough. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, I can’t see them as much as I would like to   my best friend is Yasna, she is a very cheerful, affective and amusing person. She is always with me when I need her. I met her around 10 years ago, when we were in elementary school. We have a beautiful friendship <3. Yasna is definitely a very good friend.   Still I keep in touch with some friends  high school. Before the pandemic I could see them more regularly, but just now is complicated :C

MY FAVOURITE PIECE OF TECHNOLOGY

Imagen
  One of my favourite devices is my Photographic camera. A couple years ago I wanted a camera to photograph wild plants and animals, so last year's christmas my daddy gifted me one, and that  made me very happy. Unfortunately due to the pandemic I have not been able to go out much to photograph wild life,  but i used it a lot on my  summer  holidays  in the  Atacama region, where i took pictures of cactus and wild animals like guanacos, foxes, iguanas, lizards, among other species.  Sometimes  when I get bored i  take pictures of my dog and garden. I love  my camera because it allows me to capture moments of things that i really enjoy , like wild life , and share them in my social media for  my friends and  family  . Sharing this pictures also educate about chilean Flora and fauna.  I suppose my life without my camera  would'nt be so different but definetly more boring.
