 In the future, I'd like to take a postgraduate course related with social sciences. I don't have a particular program in mind, but I consider it because I think is necessary to specialize. Also, the tools and knowledge that sociology gave me are not enough to work in complex situations, related with inequalities, for example.  I'd like to deepen into interdisciplinary tools related to politic economy, gender studies, latin american sociology, social and cutural antropology, etc.  It would be great to study outside of the country, whether in south america, or somewhere in the north of the globe. Although, it is more possible to study here, in Chile, due economic reasons.  However, it would be interesting taking postgraduate studies by distance learning, considering that it may be less expensive. In that case, I should have an economic support that allows me to study or, at least, work and study. Surfing in internet and searching for programs, I've found one that is p...

 I would like to have a job where I can apply social sciences knowledge at the same time where I can share it. I hope it could be with a community, a group of people related by a territory, an identity or a specific problematic. I really would love a job which recognizes the work with community outside the notion of volunteer work. I mean, a useful paid labor where I can focus on contribute building strategies and tools  for people who requires it to have dignity in their lives. I would like to be paid for using participative and collaborative strategies to build a situated knowledge, that emerges with the people who needs them on everyday life. I imagine it as an outdoor labor, working with different people and perspectives, but with an autonomous responsability. Of course, I’d love to travel, but it is not a principal aspect of my interest on a future job. If I would travel, I hope it brings me significant experiences with different people and cultures. As I said, I hope...

During the quarantine I have done almost the same things that I've been doing during these last five years. I mean, mostly working and studying. I think working even more than before. The more I have to work, the more I try to read things that are not related to my career o anything academic (as novels), but I've failed too much since august.  BUT, there is something that never fails: watching series.  I have to admit that during the quarantine I have not whatched series full of content, or some masterpiece of all times (I'm saying this because at the beginning of the isolation I attempted to watch all the classical series that I haven't seen yet, like Twin Peaks, The Sopranos, Doctor Who, etc). Instead, I’ve seen all the episodes of series like Modern Family, an american sitcom which has eleven seasons. I love watching lightweight comedies that make me laugh and think in basic problems related to rich white american   people.   It is like to be in drugs wit...

I've been thinking about the thing I'm willing to admit for hours and I realized that I've thounsands of memories that are embarrasing. maybe because I'm a little shy, or t not confident enough. Anyway, I decided to tell that when I was eleven years, I was to afraid to tell my family that I was listening  Jonas Brothers. Even being a baby, I thought that I was such a looser because of liking pop music, made specially for girls. As stupid as it sounds, I felt ashamed. The thing was that  I have  two elder brothers that used to annoyed me with almost everything i said or did haha. I grew up listening what it ment to be "good music" haha (I'd say, music mostly made by man, like rock music, classical music, whatever manly made in the north of the globe). I was so in love with the band that I listened their music with headphones, hiding, in the night. Finally, my mother told me not to worry about it. I listened them during a year after that, so my b...

 On the 11th of april, in 2018, I went to one of the most memorable concerts ever. It was on the national stadium (Estadio Nacional) in Santiago. At the SUE Festival -where bands like Junun (which is indian) and Flying Lotus amazed me- I had the oportunity to attend to Radiohead latest album concert, A moon Shaped Pool. The tickets to the concert where a gift from my sister, who is also my best friend in the earth. It was a beautiful gift because the festival was one day before her birthday, and she spent her earnings from work (she is a student as I am, so the money was not a lot) to buy those expensive but  precious tickets. My sister has been a big fan of the band since her infance, so we have been listening all their albums during most of our life. She is almost two years younger than me and, at first, I was really reticent to fall deep with Radiohead, because it felt really sad and nostalgic (also because I was more into Metal music, but that's a different story). But dur...

                                   I would like to visit Bolivia, for many reasons. Besides of the amazing geography, the historical value of the country -due the presence of the Inca empire and the multiple ethnic population- and also for the political processes which the country has passed through, are some of the main reasons. I know a few things about Bolivia, related to their history, economic and political aspects. But, to really know the country, I'd prefer to meet the people and their territory, particularly womens of feminist political groups, to share and learn about them.  I'd really like to live in Bolivia, work with different communities, and it would be amazing to study there. I wish I would be there right now, during this critical moment, to see the development of the internal issues after the returned Evo Morales and the destitution of the ex self claimed president of the count...
