My expectations for the new semester.

Hi everyone. This semester I am studying the magister gender and culture at the University of Chile. My expectations for this semester is to end the compulsory subjects and start writing my thesis.

My thesis is funded by a research project FONDECYT. The topic of my thesis is concerned with the cultural construction of the body in women of a small village called Marchigue. I have to go to interviews women to tell me about their lives.

I am studying English to learn the language and be able to read articles for my thesis. I also like to travel to England

In my spare time I listen to music and take a walk through the streets of Santiago

Something about me…

My name is Loreto Tenorio Pangui. I was born in Valdivia on a spring day in November. My mother’s name is Nancy and my father’s name is Victor.

I studied Anthropology in Valdivia. I remember the cold, the rain, the river and the big green trees around my college. I also remember the evenings of study in the library and the beautiful friendships that I made there.

Now I’m live in Santiago and study a Masters in Gender and Culture at the University of Chile. The study of gender has been a great discovery for me. I'm not afraid to define myself as a feminist. I keep a profound hope that one day men and women inhabit a better world, where more freedom for everyone there.

There are things that I love in this life and others less so. I like the autumn and rain. I like walking down the street warm. I always like to give a coin to the musicians that are uploaded to the bus. I like the people I love are happy.

I do not like action movies, or injustice, or people who think morally superior to the other. I do not like when there is no internet.
