Post 5: The story of a picture




This summer we went on vacation to the mountains with my dad. My parents are divorced and I see him a few times a year, but when he's on vacation, we always go out together. Five years ago we made the first trip to "Aguas Calientes" and we went with my cousin, my nephew and also my brother-in-law. But this year in febraury was the first time we were alone. Our trip lasted more than a week, we climbed the mountain range on horseback, camped under the stars and almost reached the border with Argentina. The photograph is of when we were returning through the Atacalco sector. It was a very special trip because we both learned from each other. My father always taught me the things necessary to survive: lighting a fire, a good place to sleep, etc. That's why I take every opportunity to travel with him to always learn more.

Writing the blogs I found entertaining also in some of the topics I had to comment were very interesting as the "Childhood Series" or "The story or a picture" that were my favorites and I enjoyed writing them. I feel satisfied with the experience because unlike English 2, this one seemed much better. In addition to having to make comments to the blogs of our colleagues I think I could know them a little more because despite not sharing so much in the classroom in the blogs I knew their hobbies, outrage or academic interests. What I thought was a way to make the course more educational and closer. With respect to my writing skills, I think I moved forward because I did not dare to write so much in English before and now that I was able to practice, I think it worked. I liked having the challenge of thinking about what to write and the uncertainty of knowing the subject. In addition we did not use a journalistic language like in the other subjects then it felt a l...
