My brother Sebastián

 Hello everyone, today is a very cold and cloudy Sunday. I hope you are all doing well. Today, I'll talk about something closer to my heart, a family member I love dearly. I have three brothers, and I love them unconditionally. If I had to choose who to talk about today, I'll talk about my oldest brother, Sebastián, who is nearly 30 years old. Seba is someone with whom I share an incredible bond. We have different parents, but my dad gave him his last name, so he's practically my little brother.


I'm very proud of who he has become. Seba was always a very kind and talented graffiti artist. He loved outdoor activities like biking and climbing, and we often competed in our love for climbing. As he grew older, Seba studied expedition engineering in ecotourism at the university, I believe that's the name of his degree, but that's basically Seba for you. He went to the mountains, climbed, cycled—everything related to the outdoors.


After university, Seba landed beautiful jobs, like working at the Osorno refuge, waking up with snow on his face. I admired what he did and still does today. The years went by, and in 2022, Seba surprised us. He started dating Sofia, someone he had known when he was younger. They had been together for six months when Seba was practically moving out to live with her. And out of nowhere, they shared the news that they were going to be parents. I remember Seba called me on a video call to tell me, I was in the bathroom, and he showed me the pregnancy test. I couldn't believe it, and the whole family eagerly awaited the arrival of the baby.


Seba continued to grow as a person, and I was very proud of him. He left home to start a family, and now I'm an aunt to Clemente, a very sweet baby who is almost six months old. I still can't fully grasp the idea of being an aunt, and I don't quite see my brother as a father, which is strange but lovely. All my brothers are starting to build their own lives, and I have a five-year-old brother who is my little favorite. Then there's me, followed by Vicente, 23 years old, studying outside of Chile, and today's character to talk about, Sebastián.


That's been my slightly emotional blog. I hope you are all doing well. Goodbye!

The Poke Bowl

 Hello everyone in this new blog, today I will tell you about my favorite food lately. First, let me give you some context about poke bowls. Poke means 'to cut' in Hawaiian and refers to square pieces of marinated raw fish, usually tuna, which are then placed on top of rice and complemented with vegetables and sauces. This dish originates from Hawaii and is typical there. Many people say it is very exotic but also delicious.  To make a poke bowl, we need to start with our preferred base, which could be rice, quinoa, or another grain. Then we add the protein on top of this base, in my case, I prefer tuna, which is cut into small pieces. Next, we move on to the rest of the ingredients, which are the vegetables. In my case, I add avocado, cucumber, carrot, and scallions. Then we can optionally add some tropical fruit like pineapple. Finally, we sprinkle toasted sesame seeds as toppings. Once our bowl is ready, we add ceviche or soy sauce as dressing.  I love this dish because I en

An interesting trip

 Hello everyone on this new rainy day. In this post, I will tell you about a beautiful trip I took in the summer of 2023. I went to Europe for the first time with my boyfriend. We first arrived in Barcelona and stayed at his aunt and uncle's house. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect; it truly felt like another world. We spent several days exploring almost all of Barcelona, a city full of joy and excitement on every corner. It amazed me how interested people were in fashion here. It was beautiful how people's personalities were reflected through their clothing. There was a street called Paseo de Gracia where all the luxury stores like Prada, Chanel, Cartier, etc. were located, and well-dressed people casually strolled with their shopping bags – something we don't see in Chile due to the risk of theft. We visited many cultural monuments and architectural wonders, like Gaudí's creations. His works are stunning and heavily inspired by organic and natural for
