Independence day holidays


Independence day holidays

In a common day I like play my guitar, but in this Independence day holidays that was impossible, because all my family agreed to meet in my home and my aunts and uncles  asked to me if I can to play “cuecas” and,  for to be honest, I don’t like this. However, I must to say that it’s was not so bad, because my mother is a excellent  cook and, probably  I gained weight these days.

Difinitively, this one wasn’t a common Independence day holidays to me. Always, in this time, with my family, hang out preparing a barbecue, my father drink “chicha”, my mother drink “terremoto”, but  this year I decided not to drink and my brother was with his girlfriend and her parents. 

In general this holidays I stayed in my home and my family doesn’t anything patriotic food. We not believe there is much to celebrate.

Well, this time was a liltle different, maybe because with twenty persons in my house there was not much choice. It was a traumatic experience but was very fun. My cousins forced me and my parents  to have a good time in “traditional” way: I should be grateful to them.

Post 3





Last holidays I remember were the ones when I was 11 years old, in those day my family were most close and usually we traveled with my aunts and uncles. Was a good time.

That summer, in 2002, I spent three weeks with my family just traveling around the south of Chile. I remember with special affection a place near Talca, a mountian site with an artificial lake called Colbún, in te seventh  district. It’s cool because in the place there were many others persons camping… We were one week and a half there. 

After this time, we drove to Coelemu the site where my mother and her brothers were born. When we arrived, we took the chance to visit some relatives and went for a walk around the places that my mothers an her brothers used to frequent in their childhood… so on.

Those were my favorite holidays of all time because of all the good memories that it still brings up. Besides those were my last vacations ever, because after that i began working and i never got the chance to went out for the holidays again.
