READING BOOOKS AND MAGAZINES.

I'm always reading books. When I was a child I remember looking at the pictures of the entertainment magazines my mom. In this time I did not know read but I wanted to learn. I do not know how many books I read in my life but must be many.

I prefer to read non-fiction books. When I was a teenager I read many romance novels. For example “Pride and Prejudice” written by Jane Austen. In this novel my favorite character is Mr. Darcy.  



I do not know if I have a favorite writer but when I was fifteen I fell in love Herman Hesse books.  Those books made ​​me think I was not alone in this world.  I do not have a favorite book.


I recently read a book of poems by Alfonsina Storni.  It didn’t take me too long to read this book because it is very short. I really enjoyed reading this book because the author was a feminist woman. Her poems talk about the relationships between women and men. I recommend it to you!

A COUNTRY I WOULD LIKE TO VISIT.

A continent I would like to visit.

When I was a child I always watched travel programs on television.  Most of the time I preferred to watch programs where travelers going to Africa. That was one of the reasons why I decided to study Anthropology.  I liked meeting completely different cultures to our.

I think I'd like to travel to any country in Africa. I'd like the nice part of these countries, such as music, dance, rituals, food and religion.  I think their customs are so different from ours, that would be a good opportunity to learn about anthropology and about life itself.

However, I know that in Africa there is much poverty and disease. For this reason I would like to work in an organization that helps people in need. I do not know much about the problems of Africa. I think before traveling to the continent I should read some books. I also think it would be good to talk with African people living in Chile.
