Iceland - A Country I would like to visit

Andrés Cornejo

For many years I have been obsessed with Iceland due to its beauty and great nature. 


Iceland is a nordic country located in Europe, Northern Europe to be more precise, reason why is one of the coldest countries in the world but yet so beautiful.

The thing I find most interesting about Iceland is that it's a very small country, more like a tiny island, with only one "big" city called Reykjavik (which is the capital), and the rest of the country is just mountains, volcanos and glaciers. Because it's so small only 368.792 people live in Iceland, and that's why maybe most of the icelandics know each other.

If I ever go to Iceland I would like to visit the Black Sand Beach, see the Gullfos Waterfall, eat typical food like hakarl (fermented shark) and go to a big mountain where I can see the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis)








Although it is an amazing country I don´t think I would live there because it can get really lonely with very few people living there, and also the cold weather might bring you down in my opinion. Also the language there I find it extremely difficult to learn, so I guess I would just visit Iceland from time to time.

If you want to know more about Iceland I recommend you 2 music videos from Icelandic musicians that show the landscapes along with the music.

My pet - Sofi

 Hello there this blog is about my pet - Sofi Sofi is a 7 years old dog that was luckily rescued thanks to my cousin Celeste, she couldn´t keep it so we agreed to take care of Sofi and give her a home here with my family. The first days with us were crucial because she was very delicate and afraid of everything, but luckily she survived and got on with life.  Sofi with a tangerine Sofi normally is a hairy dog but when high temperatures arrive we cut her hair and she looks like a different dog, she is also very afraid to this day of mostly everything: balls, stairs (she can't go upstairs cause she is too afraid), bikes, anything. But that doesn't mean she is boring, I take her out for a walk everyday and she becomes the happiest dog ever. Sofi short hair At the beggining we thought she was going to be a small dog but ended up being a chonk big one.  I think she is very important to us because she came to our lifes when we just moved to another neighbourhood and since then ...

Post 2: The best concert ever

Imagen
Well for me it's really hard to decide which concert I've attended is the best, I've been going to concerts since I was 12 years old and I've seen some excellent performances as well as some not so great.  But if I have to pick my favorite one it would be Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds's show in 2018 at the Teatro Caupolican. For those who don't know Nick Cave is a musician, songwritter and singer that plays with the band called The Bad Seeds, but basically Nick is the frontman and takes all the credit for that haha. The band was formed around the 70s and was one of the most influencial bands in the gothic music scene. So as I remember I wanted to meet the band so bad that I skipped school the day of the show and waited outside the Sheraton Hotel the whole day waiting for the band and get my CD's signed. So I waited like 5 hours outside, and then suddenly a van parked outside to pick the band, everyone did a qeue and saw that Nick came up to sign our stuff an...
