I. JAPAN: hanami's country

Hello!

I can't choose just one country I would like to visit. It's complicated! Don't you think? So... I thought twice what choose before I start to write this.  Finally I decided Japan. 

And you wonder why... or not? I hope so! 


Japan is known as anime cradle. Japanese animation is unlimited and global art. There plots to all preferences and ages. However, their culture goes beyond spectacular animation. Japan has various religions, traditions, panoramas and tourist places like Mount Fuji, Shibuya 109 (a giant shopping mall!!), Tokyo Tower, etc. 


I would like to go because I believe Japan is a syncretism place between traditions and modernity. Besides, my brother Sebastian has visited Japan in two occasions, and he told me him adventures there. He motivated me to save my money to travel together after pandemic.

One of things I would love do is wear a traditional clothes, see hanami (custom about observing beauty of flowers) and practice cha-no-yu or japanese tea ceremony.

    Hi Francisca, I also share your interest in Japanese anime and for that reason alone I have also been intrigued to know a little more about that country.

    I am particulary interested in the religous diversity that exist in Japan and even more considering that they are radically diferent from the Catholic religion

III. CHILDHOOD SERIES

Imagen
When I was 4 or 5 years old, I watched Dora the Explorer. I really loved the serie, even I woke up early to watch it and my parents and brothers told me I looked like Dora because I had short hair for years and my skin was a little bit brunette (for playing a lot in the sun). I remember I discovered Dora the Explorer when my family got cable TV. But the cable TV didn't last long...  So I could only access to national TV, channels like Mega and TVN. There I "fall in love" with 31 Minutos. Now I know 31 Minutos was transmited in 2003 for first time, then I saw the serie 2 or 3 years later. Since that time, I have felt too much appreciation for the program. Sometimes I watch 31 Minutos in YouTube and I enjoy like first ocassion. Juan Carlos Bodoque is the best character, change my mind. Special mention to Malcolm in the Middle, other great serie <3

IV. FAVORITE BOOK

HEY- For me, it isn't easy choose just one of three topic to write, because my favorite series, movies and books make me happy and I feel excited when I talk or write about them. However, I prefer tell you about my favorite book until this moment.  Amberes written by Roberto Bolaño, a chilean artist who lived in Mexico for years, was published in 2002 for first time, months before Bolaño died. If I can catalog this book, I would do it like a poem with 56 short chapters, but oficially Amberes is a novel. The Amberes plot is very-very confused because story narrates different events from point of view of many characters, without explicit details. Little by little, the reader can discover that novel is a detective story, but the case remains difficult to solve. Also, each point of view slowly and subtly connects through flashbacks, memories or hallucinations, even there chapthers that break the fourth wall using second person grammatical and inviting us to imagine.  It's weird, is
