A Country/Place I Would Like/Love To Visit

 SWEDEN (Sverige)

Since I was a kid I know about Sweden because of an uncle who lives in there, and when he send us pictures I always love the fact that it was snowing. When I watched some tv shows and movies that show some swedish landscapes I started to being interest, then I read a book called "The girl with the Dragon Tattoo" from Stieg Larsson, a swedish periodist and writter, and that make me even more interested to investigate about the country.


Stockholm, Sweden

Sweden is located in the Northem Europe and it's part of the Scandinavian Peninsula with Norway and Finland. Also is one of the largest countries in Europe and it's characterized for his cold weather, low temperatures in winter and fresh in summer (I personally liked that). One of the thing I found really important is the fact that it's a multicultural country in the ambit of religion, ethnic and lenguage due to the inmigration. In the late 1970's Sweden gave asylum to some countries from Africa, Asia and Latin America like Chile and the political refugees from the military dictatorship.

The Capital of Sweden

The first thing I will love to do if I go to Stockholm is to visit the Abba Museum to see de wax sculptures and for complement I would go to the "Gretas nightclub" (that once I saw in a programme that this gay club is run by a chilean). 
One of my favorite series is "Vikings" so I will definitely go to the Viking Museum 
to learn about the mytholoy and the culture of Scandinavia and then I'll go to the Vasa Museum to apreciate the oldest ship from the XVII century.


MIDSUMMER 

The Midsummer is a holiday that celebrates the summer solstice (the longest day in the Northern Hemisphere). It has a Pagan origin where they welcomed the summer and pray for a successfull harvest.
In the Midsummer they make some kind of festival with dances, songs, bonfires and some rituals. I feel like this would be a really good thing to be part of and experience.

At last but not least, one of my dreams is to see the Kiruma Aurora Borealis, in pictures are really amazing so I can't even imagine how it is in real life.

I hope some day have the oportunity to visit all this places and more...

MY DREAM JOB

Through the years I always wanted to do a lot of things, but now I'm going to talk about two of them. VETERINARIAN I've always loved animals, so when I was little I  consider been a veterinarian  to be around animals all the time.  Furthermore, I had lot of animals  like chickens,dogs, a rabbit, a cat and  a hedgedog so I wanted to know more about  animals and how to take care of all them. This is not my dream job anymore because  at some point I realise that if you are a veterinarian sometimes the lives of the animals depend on you and I dont know if I can manage to be ok with seen suffering animals. Anyways I still love animals and I hope that one day  I could adopt as many as I can. ARCHEOLOGIST  Since I was a kid, history had always caught my attention, although I wasn't really good at history class. However I was captivated by the dinosaurs and mamuts, also I was curious about how we know the characteristics of these animals especially ...

Time Travel To The Past

I think I started fancying about time travelling when I watched "Back to the Future" , specially the third part were the Doc and Marty traveled to the past, and I also watched a serie called "Outlander"  who is about a 20th century woman (Claire Fraser) who travelled to the 18th century and had to learn how to live in that time. I that really make me wonder what would it be if I can travel to the past. Another reason why I'd rather go the past is because  somehow I'm scared of the future and what will come, maybe I'm a pesimist for thinking that there's no a good future for us and when I think about travelling into the future I picture chaos.  Despite of that I never really thought about what time in the past going, and I don't know if I can choose just one so I would write about the things I expect to visit if I go to the past. First I would like to go to the 19th century just  because I read a fantasy / historical book about that age in Chile c...
