Travel to the past.

       

If I could travel through time I would like to go to the past, because I feel that by going to places and empirically observing situations, you can contrast with what is written (history), and that it is usually always changing. So I would like to travel back hundreds of years, specifically before the arrival of the Spanish ships to America in 1492, to learn about the different cultures that inhabited our continent. Obviously I would like to be on an invisible ship, or be completely innocuous so as not to affect absolutely nothing, just with the intention of understanding and observing the different ways of being of these primordial habitants. 

I would like to have the ability to transform my appearance and my mind to be able to adapt to different forms of communication, and talk to people. Collect different types of information and try to interact with each member. As I said before, I would not like to intervene in the communities, because I am from another time and my modes of being would possibly cause a rupture in the culture, although it is very Ray Bradbury, I feel that everything you do affects the future, or rather every action you have will create an infinity of realities for the future, even stepping on a branch or stealing a stone. Therefore, I prefer to return to this present, the same one in which I am currently blogging for my English course, even if it is not the best world, I am a son of my time and I prefer not to change it.

English course

       

My experience learning English at the university has been good, especially because at the beginning of the classes I have to speak in a language completely different from my own, and that, although a little frustrating at first, has helped me to naturalize English in my daily life. As for the face-to-face and Zoom classes, I must say that I prefer the first modality, rather than the second, because I can actually see the faces and expressions of my classmates, which makes me feel more confident than just seeing a black screen. And that in a way, also affects the way I express part of my life in blogs, seeing my classmates and teacher every week, gives me much more motivation to write blogs, although they can be tedious, I like them. 

Outside of class, I use English to talk to myself in the shower, to talk to my friends or to help some lost foreigner who doesn't know Spanish very well, which happens to me very often since I am not originally from Santiago and I always have to take buses to Viña del Mar or Valparaíso, and many times at the terminal station there is more than one lost foreigner looking for guidance, and for some reason they look for me. Most of the time I can help them, but there are times that due to grammatical issues I find it hard to understand them and answer their questions correctly, in that sense I would like to improve my grammar, and learn more in theory, since most of my English I have learned through netflix or youtube.
