Something I enjoy doing outdoors!


Like I´ve mentioned in many of my posts, my family and I have always enjoyed visiting different places in Chile, mainly the south of the country, for this reason the activity I do most on these trips is trekking. Generally the most beautiful places are the most hidden or those that you connot reach by car alone, so it´s necessary to walk considerable distances to see them, the walks can be easy but sometimes they can be really difficult and exhausting, it really depends on where you go.

I started doing trekking at a really young age on our family trips, maybe when I was 8 or 9, of course before we didn´t do anything very complex because of my age, but as I grew older we were encouraged to do longer trails. This is my favorite outdoor activity because it makes me feel very connected to the environment, the fresh air and the beautiful landscapes calm me and make me forget about all the problems that affect me in my daily life, it´s a grat way to recharge your energy and I´m always left with a general feeling of well-being  when I´m done. Unfortunately I haven´t been able to do trekkings for about 2 years because I haven´t been able to go on vacation due to work related issues, but this year I´m going out with my family, so hopefully I will be able to do some interesting trails this summer!

Thanks for reading :)

My visit to grey glacier

Imagen
 In my 21 years of age, I have been fortunate to visit many beautiful places in our country, some of them are Malalcahuello, Pucón, Valdivia, Puerto Natales, Atacama Desert, and many more!. Today i´m going to talk about my trip to Grey glacier, located in Puerto Natales. In my first post I talked a little bit about my visit to Puerto Natales, specifically to "Las Torres del Paine", but now i´ll talk about the time I went to the Grey Glacier, located in the Torres del Paine national park, this was my first time going to this place, at the beginning of the year 2016, I went with my two grandparents and my aunt (she is like a sister because she´s younger than me). The city was beautiful, simple and quiet, there are a lot of good restaurants there, I´ll never forget the salmon, It was so good. The second day of our trip we went to the park, you could enter by car to a certain point, but then you had to walk, after some time we arrived to the entrance of the glacier an

Emi's introduction

 Hello, welcome to my blog! My name is Emilia Betancur , both of my parents are chilean and they were in Chile when they had me so... I'm originally from Rancagua (6th region) more specifically from Machalí, but not many people know where that is, so I just say I was born in Rancagua, it's a small town but most of my family live there and I really love them so I like to visit.  I've always liked art, it's my passion, so when I had to pick what I wanted to study, it was a tough decision between art and architecture, honestly, I like both, and I think architecture can be a form of art too!, so I decided to study that with the promise (to myself) to study fine arts when I finish my career, my dream It's to study in Spain, where a lot of the most brilliant artists where born, like Francisco de Goya.  I have a lot of hobbies, like I said, I like every form of art so I paint and draw a lot, actually, I work making paintings, there are a lot of people that reach out to me

My trip to Torres del Paine!

 Since I was little, my family and I have always enjoyed traveling around Chile, we have visited Malalcahuello, San Pedro de Atacama, Pucón, and many more! especially the south of our country, but our trip to Puerto Natales and Torres del Paine was, by far, my favorite. We had to travel from Rancagua to Santiago and then form Santiago to Puerto Natales, this was the least enjoyable part of the trip, at least for me, I dont like flying, I get scared, and it´s worse when I have to fly over the ocean. When we finally arrived we had to take a bus to Puerto Natales and it was so cool because we found a lot of sheep, there was so many and they blocked our way, but it was so fun!, I remember it so vividly. after about an hour we arrived and went to leave our stuff at the hostel, after that we went to a restaurant immediately, I was so hungry I could have eaten a rock, I ordered salmon and it was the best salmon I have ever eaten in my entire life! the next day we went to see the glaciers Balm
