Post Nº5: The Story Behind the Photograph

Since I was a little girl, I used to dream about visiting one of the most valuable living treasures in the world (according to UNESCO), The Galápagos Islands, in Ecuador. This is why when I had the chance to plan my first trip abroad, I decided to travel there. I started to plan the trip 6 months in advance, to avoid any last-minute issues. I arrived at Santa Cruz Island, which is the second bigger island in the Galápagos after Isabela Island, and I went on an excursion to Las Tintoreras in the same afternoon. Within minutes I started to see different types of lizards, birds, crabs, little penguins, and blue-footed boobies, wandering freely around people all the time. After walking a couple of kilometers, I got to Tortuga Beach and I was able to see hundreds of marine iguanas, swimming or walking on the sand. It was a really beautiful expedition, and this is one of the photographs that captured this amazing moment.

Post Nº2: Why did you choose this study programme?

Image
Since I was 10 years old, one of my biggest dreams was to become an English language teacher. I remember when I was in 7 th  grade, I used to help all my classmates with their homework and my average marks were between 6.8/7.0 Why I decided to study English teaching then? Well, English is a universal language which can help you understand the world, so it is important in life because it’s one of the easiest ways to communicate with people around the globe. I truly consider it a great tool for facing the real world. When I started to teach my classmates, they were capable to understand me and then, our relatives and family friends started to ask me to teach their children English, to help them to improve their marks at school, and they did great. And this is how I became a teacher. Nowadays, I can say that the thing that I like the most is that when I teach, every day is different and it represents a challenge, and I simply love it. What about you? Why did you choose this study pro

TASK Nº6 - My Favorite Writer

Image
My favorite writer of all times is Julio Cortázar. He was born in 1914 and died in 1984. He was a novelist, short story writer, and essayist. He was one of the best novel and innovative Argentina writers of the 20th century. His uniqueness lied in the fact that he combined existential questioning with experimental writing techniques in his work which was unusual and fresh. It was due to this that he majorly influenced the Spanish-speaking readers and writers settled in Europe and America. Cortázar was one of the founders of Latin America Boom and a modern master of the short story. During his lifetime, he came up with various works of poetry and drama in the category of both fiction and nonfiction. In the ’60s, he published one of my favorite books ever: ‘Rayuela’ (1963), which is an open-ended novel or ‘antinovel’ that invites the reader to rearrange the different parts of the novel according to a plan prescribed by the author. During his career, Cortázar wrote lots of short storie

Task Nº9: My Favorite Food

Image
Pasta is my favorite food  and it’s also  the world’s favorite food. Before writing this post, I did some research and I found out that a survey taken in 17 countries confirmed that pasta is what people like to eat the most.  Pasta has become popular   for one thing :  because it is cheap and easy to prepare. Just cook noodles or other forms of pasta, make a sauce to go with it and you r lunch or dinner is ready . Many different types of meals can be  prepared  with pasta.  Also, i t tastes good and produces energy in the form of carbohydrates, which is why athletes eat pasta regularly.  As a product, it has some advantages as well. For example, it can  be kept  in the cabinet  for a longer  period of  time. You don’t have to  cook  it   at once.   However, and even though everyone knows that this dish is cheap, people still pay a large amount of money for it when eating out. The cheapness of this dish is crucial to its success and its continued popularity. In short, I
