 Blog post  3



You already chose a topic  that  is affecting our lives enourmously: 

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO AFTER THIS LOCK DOWN?
Virus, Mascarilla, Coronavirus, Máscara, Enfermedad

It is difficult to think about that day because this coronavirus outbreak has taken too long that  it has been changing in some way our habits, thoughts, reflections, our relationships, etc. Being in quarantine has affected our lives for better or worse, it depends on our decision. Words like: quarantine, lock down, curfew. social distancing, isolation, etc...,have become all too familiar for us.

Some experts say that life may never return back to normal after  this outbreak because even with a vaccine the virus will be a looming threat. If we want to get back to pre-coronavirus would be rather improbable in the sense we might feel anxious and frightened of getting infected. Meanwhile, I guess, habits we have been adapting to avoid infection will likely stick around like washing hands frequently, wearing face coverings, desinfecting surface or the way people greet each other, etc.

This tsunami-like impact of this global pandemic has become   a real transformation in our daily lives and it will in the long run. Apart from changing our habits (for better I would say), our behaviour will also be affected that is why I can barely think what I want to do.
Maybe I will visit one of my sons. 
I think I´ll probably travel to Concepción to spend some time with my sisters, nieces and nephews but I wouldn´t say this is going to be easy because I don´t know if I will be able to manage fear.

There is no doubt that , despite of this tragedy that so many people have been killed by the coronavirus, we , as a society, are going to strengthen our spirits, and perhaps significant 
changes are about to come, while scientists are still  working on the different vaccines...

Casa, Corona, Coronavirus, Virus

 Holidays


Things to see and do in Winter Park, Florida: Get away from the Orlando crowds to the charm of Winter Park | cadryskitchen.com

This is a kind of difficult question to answer because I am not pretty sure which one is the best. I am not being conceited, I just consider to go on holidays a great opportunity to share time with the people you love.

Going back in time, nostalgic memories come back to my mind from the first journey abroad with my family.
We travelled to Florida, USA to visit Disneyland. It was an amazing trip because my children enjoyed a lot, especially my youngest boy who was 4 at the time. When we came into one of the theme parks, Magic Kingdom, he was absolutely astonished and fascinated because he would have the chance to meet Mickey Mouse and his friends. After a while, he could shake hands with a real Mickey Mouse! We took a lot of pictures of this special occasion. As you can imagine everyone of us was looking forward to this awesome meeting.

Apart from that, we toured the city which has interesting places to visit, like others theme parks, museums, lakes and huge green areas.

I would say this memory will last forever in our hearts not only because we were in a different country but also for the remarkable moments we spent together.

Post 1


Hello everyone!
Welcome to this first blog session!

Today we are going to write about a country you would like to visit.



Looking at the picture above you will guess which country I would like to visit some day...
you were right...Egypt ! I have always liked the history, particularly about ancient civilizations, like this one.

I remember the first time I learnt about Egypt was at school when the teacher talked about pyramids, gods, pharaohs and sphinxes. I was amazed ! I thought it was magical and an off-world place but of course it was not!

Now I know it remains as interesting as so many of the old monuments. Moreover, it has historical places such as the Mount Sinai of Biblical fame, the Red Sea, the Nile River, et

I hope some day I may visit this fascinating land and experience its exotic art and culture!



What about you?



- Which country would you like to go to? Why?

- What do you know about it?

- Would you like to study/work/live there? Explain.
